Notes
Rack of Lamb Ribs
Always wash meat after opening from packaging, dry with paper towel. Rub your favourite lamb dry rub seasoning into meat (as much as you like). Let it sit allow the herbs to do their job flavouring the fat and meat. Have BBQ/smoker preheated to approx 150-180 depending on how you like your lamb. Make sure you have a water tin in the Smoker/BBQ so ribs are nice and moist when done. Place ribs fat facing down and cook for 2.5 hours. Put your wood chips at any stage you like for smoke flavour. At about the 2.5hr mark turn ribs over cook for another 2.5 hrs . At the 5hrs mark wrap the lamb in foil and sit back into Smoker/BBQ for another hour. 6hr mark pull Rack of lamb out of Smoker/BBQ let them rest for 3 mins then serve.What Vegetables go well with Lamb
My personal favourite is Sweet Potato Mash. I also love carrots and asparagus with my lamb. A beautiful mint sauce is very complimentary to lamb.
I also love mint yoghurt dressings to any lamb dishes.
