MSU: Smoked Lamb Shanks with Durban Curry (In Progress)

[SmokinAussie]

G'Day Bruces :becky:

While working from home in the shed today, I've got a kick start on this.

You won't know I've been perfecting this kind of lamb curry for 20 years but I've never done it this way. Hope it works out.

Started with the main ingredient:

Dusted with a Creole seasoning supplied by ChicagoKP. In my experience Lamb goes very well with Creole style seasoning.

Assembled the other contributors:

And onto the Weber with some water in the pan.

Looking good so far:

Next part is the curry...:becky:

This is gonna take a while.

Cheers!

Bill

So while waiting for the Lamb, prepped the curry sauce.

Here's my new camp stove with the ingredients and my CI French pan:

ALWAYS fry the curry leaves.

Bloom the curry powders.

Add the aromats.

Get some caramelisation.

Add a can of tomatoes.

I also added salt, soy and Worcestershire sauce, and turned off the gas. Just waiting for the lamb and they can get cosy.

Cheers!

Pulled them off the Weber at about 180F internal.

Added them to the curry, then back on the Weber uncovered as the charcoal was losing it's main kick. Stayed there for another hour or so at 250F

Then transferred covered to the oven just to keep warm: Ready to eat...

Gonna make some rice...

This just keeps getting better and better...

Bill, this is a helluva meal! I am not even a big lamb guy, but this'll do!

 

[Shadowdog500]

That looks like a great meal!

I really like lamb but in my opinion it is either excellent or awful with no in between.

Your lamb looks excellent! :hungry:

We are having a cold snap tonight and tomorrow and a good lamb stew may hit the spot!

 

[Big George's BBQ]

This is looking amazing

So I made some rice.

In the care package I got from ChicagoKP, there was this stuff for Jollof rice. Why not!

Rice came out great. Plated with a Lamb shank on top.

Topped with the curry.

And this... chomping in progress.

You know I really really really like Lamb. You guys have gotta try it a little more often.

Cheers!

I have been starving for two days waiting on dinner Bill, looks like it was well worth the wait.:thumb:

I am drooling.... I love lamb shanks but never considered them in a curry.

 

[Big George's BBQ]
