Anybody have experience with Lamb Ribs? My butcher was pushing them yesterday. I've done pork and beef, but never lamb.

Pay no attention to Chad. Methinks he had some sort of Clarice/Hannibal Lecter
experience earlier in life.

Lamb (mutton) is good eats. I believe someone here did a smoke with
lamb ribs. Maybe it was BBQCHEF33. I forget. They'll chime in
soon enough.

How did they look; big and meaty? I would think a problem is lamb ribs are relatively small and thin to begin with. And if so, probably not worth the hassel for most folks.

Didn't look at them, but the butcher knows about my love of BBQ and suggested I try them. Last time I did lamb in the smoker, it took a month to get the smell out. I wasn't going to try lamb again unless someone told me that lamb ribs where really really great BBQ.

Search the forum for "french Rack". I do them all the time, at least once a week. I have converted many a lamb hater with these things. Heres what ya do.

bottle of Wishbone italian dressing
6-8 garlic cloves
a fistfull of fresh rosemary
tblespoon oregano
half cup lemon juice.

use and boat motor(Immersion blender) to blend everything together.
marinade for about an hour to 3 hours .. no more.

smoke at 250 for about 2 hours. I put the marinade in a foil pan and put that in the smoker to heat it and use it to mop the ribs while they cook. Take them off at internal 135-140 degreees.

but them on a rack over the hot coals in the fire bocx for a minute or 2 to sear/grill the outside,, bringin internal to 150 -155.

let them rest about 10 minutes and then chow down.

french Rack = lamb chops not cut into chops
lamb ribs = sticks
correct?

Don't get me wrong. I love leg of lamb. And I love shish-kabob from the greek and turkish restaurants. But when I did a leg of lamb on the smoker, the result didn't seem to be worth the effort.

I assume lamb ribs would be just like pork baby backs - only smaller.
