I submit for your approval, my Smoked Lamb Shanks with Rosemary Red Potatoes and grilled Asparagus.

The shank is probably my favorite cut of lamb. It is peasant food. It is a lot like brisket, because you have to cook it low and slow to make it edible. There is a lot of connective tissue to break down.

I started yesterday by finely chopping some rosemary from my garden, and making a rosemary olive oil, that sat overnight to meld together.

I coated two shanks with this rosemary oil, and let them sit for 2 hours wrapped in foil. Just before they went on the Weber, I sprinkled them with fine sea salt and fresh ground pepper.

I used the leftover rosemary oil to lube up some red potatoes, that got baked at 350 in the oven.

Once I got the Weber up to 250, with Kingsford Blue Bag and some Pecan chunks, I put the shanks on to smoke, along with some MOINKS, just to fill up the empty space -- don't want to waste that smoke.

When the meat and potatoes were nearly done, I fired up the Smokey Joe, and coated some fresh asparagus with olive oil, and sprinkled some jew-salt and fresh ground pepper on them. I then grilled the asparagus over medium heat to get them cooked, but still a bit crunchy. Just the way I like them.

It turned out great. And, the potatoes were quite possibly better than the meat. The rosemary oil worked great on them, as well as on the meat. It goes without saying that the grill asparagus was good, too.

More pr0n can be found here...

Default Grilled Eggplant Moussaka

A couple of weeks ago, I saw the Moussaka episode on “Throwdown with Bobby Flay” and I was inspired to give Moussaka a try. We actually planned the dinner a couple of weeks ago and invited some friends over. It was just a lucky coincident that the Throwdown category this week is Lamb.
So here is the lamb and all the other ingredients for the meat sauce:
Moussaka01.jpg

Here’s the eggplant coming off the slicer:
Moussaka02.jpg

Bobby fried his eggplant, but since I have my kettle just outside the kitchen…
Moussaka03.jpg

Here it is coming together:
Moussaka04.jpg

Hot out of the oven:

And the entry photo, Moussaka with Greek Salad and Garlic Rosemary Flatbread

Thanks for looking!
