In October we went to NOLA for vacation. One of the best places we ate was at Restaurant R ’evolution!
The food was Great and one of the appetizers we had was the “Brick Oven Roasted Bone Marrow”. It was fantastic!

Chef John Folse came out and we got to talk to him and discussed the bone marrow – he said it was his favorite.

Get some fresh Beef femur bones from the butcher and have the knuckle removed and then cut in half length wise.
We soaked them in salt solution (about a cup to one gallon) overnight is recommended mixing it and changing out about every six hours.

We love it with roasted garlic so we use the old faithful garlic roaster

After removing from the brine and rinsing. Let dry and season. We just used S&P

We will cook these on the Kettle so gotta get a chimney of coals going!

Get the Kettle settled in at 425°, added a couple chunks of Cherry and the Bones are on!

They only need to cook about 20 minutes – until hot and soft but not running out. They will bubble just a little. These are coming along nicely!

The Garlic is roasted – Love Garlic!

Here is a plate of the Bones, Garlic, buttered, and heated or grilled French bread – we did both.

We use the garlic to Smear on the bread and add the marrow

The Marrow will be spooned out and added to the bread with the roasted Garlic

Got the Garlic and marrow on the bread and ready to enjoy!

This stuff is soooo Good – It is rich so you won’t eat too much – it makes a great appetizer as we had it for. Kettle was heated to Taylor temp and we cook up a few Rib Eyes but they did not have Bones.

We really like this. Found a book called Bones by Jennifer McLagan that does it a little different but I am sure they are good also.

Thanks for Lookin

Love it SD! Bone marrow is one of my favorites topped with parsley salad. Yours looks excellent!!
 
So what does bone marrow taste like?

It is melt in your mouth goodness. If you like a little fat with a bite af a great steak, you will love this. It is very rich and goes great with the roasted garlic and bread. Many serve it with parsley as Jeannie mentioned.
 
I think that's great you got to meet Chef John Folse. I love Cajun. Its my favorite thing to cook besides BBQ. He is a Cajun/Creole legend.
 
I am into trying that, :thumb:
sounds delish, I am a marrow lover but never actually cooked it just for the Marrow
 
SD, that looks really delicious! We're huge fans of roasted garlic (though not the winds the next day)!
 
Love to suck the marrow out of the slice of bone in a round steak. Like AussieTitch said, never done a cook for the marrow only. Gonna do this one. Thanks for posting! :thumb:
