How to Make Grilled Rack of Lamb
There is nothing more elegant and tasty than a grilled rack of lamb with a garlic and herb crust! I've added parmesan cheese to add an additional layer of decadence to this dish! Fire up the grill, or roast this in your oven, either way you can't go wrong!
  • Prep Time:
  • Cook Time:
  • Servings: 1

Ingredients

  • (1) “Frenched” Lamb Rack
  • (1 oz) Organic Rosemary leaves
  • (1 oz) Organic Thyme leaves
  • (1 oz) Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • (2 tbs) Garlic
  • (3 tbs) Organic Imported Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • (3 tbs) Stone-Ground Express Mustard
  • Bourbon Smoked Sea Salt
  • Bourbon Smoked Pepper

Directions

Pre-heat the grill for 10 minutes on high before grilling, then reduce heat to medium high.  If roasting in the oven, pre-heat to 400 degrees before roasting

Preparation:

Step 1 - Additional trimming of the lamb rack is optional, but shown for demonstration purposes.  Once  trimmed to your liking, season with olive oil, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste.  Grill or roast in the oven until desired internal temperature is reached.  Use an instant read thermometer to check for doneness.  Recommended internal temperature is 145 degrees for medium rare, so pull it off the grill our out of the oven at 135 degrees and cover with foil.  It will continue to cook to desired temperature

Step 2 - Use a food processor or small blender and add the herbs, cheese, and some olive oil to blend the herb mixture for the crust

Step 3 - Once grilled or roasted to just under your desired temperature, coat with the express mustard, then add the herb and cheese crust and spread evenly on the lamb rack and place into the oven for approximately 3 - 5 minutes to set the herbs and melt the cheese 

Step 4 - Remove from oven and transfer to a plate and let it rest for 5 - 10 minutes before serving

Serve with garlic mashed potatoes or a nice Ratatouille! Enjoy!!!

Pit Master's Tip:  For additional tenderness and flavor, you can smoke roast the lamb rack, then direct grill it to sear it.  Then apply the herb crust and finish it in the oven!

Spencer's Lamb Minestone Soup

You may know Spencer from seeing him completing chores with the farm operations team, but around here he's also known for stellar cooking skills. Each month, Spencer graciously prepares a team meal on a day we all look forward to that we call "feastivities." Spencer has filled our bellies (and hearts!) with many delicious meals these past several months, and today we share one of our favs - Lamb Minestrone Soup.

Rosemary Dijon Chicken Thighs

When it comes to making meals for my family, I try to prepare dishes that are elevated in flavor, but will also be something that will interest my toddlers (and sometimes even my husband for that matter haha). Kids don’t always care for the fancy foods, but I truly enjoy introducing new ingredients to my family, and incorporating different elements to my recipes. So finding that balance is my mission in the kitchen. Chicken is like the most blank canvas you can get in the culinary world. It can so beautifully adapt to any flavor profile and can be cooked many different ways. It’s one my of most favorite proteins and I could eat it every day, truly. This recipe envelopes simple home-style cooking, while representing refined and gourmet flavors. The rosemary brings an earthy freshness, while the Dijon mustard adds a tangy kick. It’s completed with a rich buttery sour cream that just brings the whole dish together. If you’re looking for a perfectly balanced dish, this is it. I hope you enjoy!

Hearty Chuck Roast Recipe

I absolutely love the warm, summer months. But, I have to admit, cooking in the cooler months is my favorite! There’s just something about having a warm, nourishing, hearty meal waiting for Bruce when he comes in from farming in the frigid temperatures. In a way, it makes me feel like I’m really doing my part in taking care of him, as he provides for our family! This pot roast recipe is 100% no fail and husband approved. It has all of the perfect elements including potatoes, carrots, fresh herbed and spices, a hearty broth, and of course the meat. I used chuck roast as the protein as personal preference, but you could definitely opt for a different cut. Packed with all the autumnal flavors, this recipe is bound to be a family favorite, and all you have to do is throw it in a pot and let time work its magic!
