Wow Larry, that looks great! I hope you're going to tell us more about this Blood Orange Vinaigrette.

Yes, I will...

However, since it's part of my BBQ Bloggers 4 Ingredient Challenge the recipes will have to wait until Monday...

It's all well and good to play with your food, but sometimes you just need to make dinner.

I put together some Greek-style souvlaki. I marinated some chunks of lamb with some EVOO, fresh garlic and onions, and added rosemary, oregano, salt and pepper.

Then I skewered these on branches of rosemary and cooked them hot and fast. I served them with tzatziki and some kalamata olives

Thanks for looking!

Those look great! We had similar ideas....oh well.

Gore's gyro looked good as well! I love Greek food. I lived in a Greek/Italian neighborhood in Queens for a few years, I sure miss it.

Back to the drawing board for me....

Well, since Larry posted his, I might as well post mine. So without further adieu, I present to you a marriage of Rosemary-Dijon Lamb Chops and Brown Rice Macaroni Salad with Napa Cabbage and Blood Orange Supremes.

As with Larry, I am sworn to secrecy with regards to details until Monday...

landarc · Feb 16, 2011

Well, since I finished my delicioius dinner, I thought it was about time I posted some images of what we enjoyed.

Tonight I made loin lamb chops with a plum reduction sauce containing green peppercorns. The brown and wild rice cooked in beef stock worked well with the grilled asparagus that were marinated in balsamic Italian dressing.

This was a lot of fun preparing and eating. As I have only been a Brethren member since December, I know I have a long way to go, but you gotta start somewhere!!

This also reminded just how great lamb is and what a great cut of meat these loin chops are. Wow!

Basic marinade with Rosemary, Kosher salt, various peppers and garlic

On the BGE ready to go

Medium rare and juicy

Plated up with grilled asparagus and brown/wild rice

Thanks so much! I have been having a lot of fun on this forum. You guys are great! And the food you guys(and gals) cook is way over the top. World Class!

By the way, the rice went really well with the sauce on the lamb. Double bonus!
