Honey Mango Lamb Ribs
Honey Mango Lamb Ribs
Says Chef Gerard Craft: “I hope to evoke a sense of comfort from simple, fresh ingredients. The lamb ribs are one of my favorite items on the menu; they are every bit as tasty as lamb chops, but often less expensive and thought to be a more flavorful with extra marbling. I would venture to say they are generally overlooked in favor of more popular cuts of meat.” Whether served at a special dinner or a casual backyard barbecue, this recipe for impossibly tender lamb ribs is the perfect new recipe to try at home this summer.
Lamb Marinade
Lamb Ribs 5lbs
Fresh lime juice 6 cups
Soy sauce 2.5 cups
Scallions, thinly sliced 1 cup
Minced fresh ginger 1.5 cups
Minced jalapeno ½ cup
3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
Break racks into half – four bones per portion.
In a large baking dish or stock pot, submerge the ribs in the marinade and allow to sit in the refrigerator overnight.
Remove from marinade, wrap racks in plastic wrap and then tinfoil.
Preheat oven to 275 degrees, place wrapped ribs on a cookie sheet. Cook in oven at 275 degrees for 1 hour. Remove from oven and allow wrapped ribs to come to room temperature.
Do not remove from the tinfoil during the cooling process.
Mango Honey Glaze
1 tbsp green peppercorns
1 tbsp coriander
1 tbsp anise seed
4 cups mango nectar
2 cups honey
Heat a medium skillet over medium-high, add green peppercorns, coriander and anise – stir often and toast until they are aromatic (about 1 minute).
Stir in mango nectar and cook without stirring until the liquid is reduced by half (about 8 minutes).
Remove from heat, pour through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a bowl; discard solids. Stir in honey and set aside.
Do not refrigerate. Mixture needs to stay at room temperature.
Preheat grill to 500°F and up. Unwrap lamb ribs and discard plastic and foil. Once grill is hot, place lambs ribs on the grill. Hold rosemary springs together (like a brush). Brush on honey mango mixture. Grill lamb ribs for approximately 6 minutes, rotating once- creating a lightly charred crust on the fattier side.
Remove from grill. Transfer lamb to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes.
