Description

This week I cooked up something a little different while still using Texas BBQ techniques. These smoky lamb ribs are fan-taste-tic, be sure to try these yourself!

Ingredients

  • Lamb ribs
  • Mustard
  • Chudrub or preferred seasoning

For the mop sauce:

  • 1 stick of butter
  • 1/2 white onion
  • Handful of garlic
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 tablespoon mustard seeds
  • 1 tablespoon black peppercorns
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon coriander
  • 1 shot of Worcestershire sauce
  • Equal parts white vinegar and apple cider vinegar (ACV)
  • Fresh herbs (rosemary, oregano, mint, thyme)
  • Beer (for thinning out the sauce)

Instructions

Prepare the lamb ribs:

-Trim any excess fat or silver skin from the lamb ribs.

-Slather mustard on both sides of the ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated.

-Sprinkle chudrub or your preferred seasoning on both sides of the ribs, rubbing it in to adhere.

-Fire up the grill and preheat it to 300 degrees Fahrenheit (150 degrees Celsius).

Grill the lamb ribs:

-Place the lamb ribs on the grill, meat side down.

-Grill the ribs at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for about an hour, or until they are cooked to your desired doneness.

Prepare the mop sauce:

-In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

-Add the chopped white onion and garlic to the pan, and sauté until softened.

-Stir in the lemon juice, mustard seeds, black peppercorns, cumin seeds, coriander, -Worcestershire sauce, white vinegar, and ACV.

-Bring the sauce to a simmer, and then add the fresh herbs (rosemary, oregano, mint, thyme).

-Adjust the seasoning according to your taste preferences.

-If desired, add a bit of beer to add volume

Mop the lamb ribs:

-After about an hour of cooking, flip the lamb ribs.

-Brush the mop sauce onto the ribs, coating them evenly.

-Continue grilling and periodically mop the ribs with the sauce for the next hour or two, ensuring they are well-basted.

-Aim for an internal temperature of 200 degrees Fahrenheit (93 degrees Celsius) for tender and juicy ribs.

Rest and serve:

-Once the lamb ribs reach the desired internal temperature, remove them from the grill.

-Wrap the ribs in foil and let them rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

-Unwrap the ribs and slice them into individual portions.

-Serve the grilled lamb ribs hot and enjoy their flavorful and tender meat.

Note: Adjust the grilling time based on the thickness of the lamb ribs and your preferred level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature is reached for safe consumption.
