More Lamb Ribs

I made lamb ribs once before, they were marked "lamb breast", which was basically lamb ribs with the belly (bacon) attached.

They were about 2 - 2 1/2 inches thick. I cut off the "belly" part and cooked them on my 18 1/2" WSM at 250F for 5 hours. They came out fatty and chewy.

Since the weather was going to be good here in New York this week, I wanted to barbeque. I went to my favorite meat store to look at what they had. Low and behold, the "lamb breasts" grabbed my eye. This time they were smaller and thinner, about 1 - 1 1/4 inches thick. I learned something from the last cook, so let's rumble!

I rubbed them with extra virgin olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder and rosemary.

I set my 18 1/2" WSM up with KBB and 5 fist sized chunks of red oak. I cooked them at 250F for 6 hours.

This is one of the best things I've barbequed so far. Moist, smokey, tasty, tender, a great flavor.

I love lamb!

I just bought some "lamb breast" from W-mart for $3.50, couldnt pass up that price. They are getting ready to go on the WSM with some baby backs. I'm going to follow your lead and I'll let you know how they come out.
