DennisLinkletter Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 There is a new Ranch Market in town with great produce and imported meats. When I saw the fresh Rosemary I just had to go get some more lamb. That leg of lamb from last week was sooo good it had been haunting me. Indonesian first.. They had fresh rasberries.. 17 years of waiting, Leggo waffles too Saw some big thick steaks and thought it was time to do some down on the coals searing too.. Fresh Rosemary yea! Fresh garlic, rosemary, sea salt and black pepper Aussie Lamb shoulder Olive oiled down and covered with the mix.. Ready to go.. Dropped it in at 450º for 15 minutes.. closed it down and threw in the apple sticks.. it settled at about 325º It was very pink at 140º put it back on and oops.. fell asleep overshot my target and pulled it at 174º Climbed to 182º while wrapped and resting. It was well done but still very moist and delicious.. I cut the slab of fat into little pieces and they were melt in your mouth amazing! Aussie steaks 3/8" Inverted sear grill at 700ºf. Charcoal glowing from my small hair drier.. **My secret weapon.. try it before you laugh.. 90 seconds on each side, rested for 15 minutes then 12 minutes at 350º Pulled 'em at 155º (meat temp) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curly Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Looks like some good eaten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samantha Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Dennis....I also use a hair dryer to push the fire up in temp quicker. It works great. I use an old folding model that I leave in the BBQ tool bin. The meat looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulR Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Aussie lamb is the best!!! (granted kiwi lamb is special too but...) yum!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porkchop Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 dude! looking delish! too bad about the lamb being overdone, but even the mistakes are pretty darn edible, eh? never done lamb shoulder; would figure it for being tough. was it tender eating, or chewy? the spices sound good; love rosemary with beef and lamb.

Sanny Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Hair dryer Hmm. That tip about the hair dryer stuck in my head over the weekend. So, I tried it when I fired up the cooker to make paella. Goodness, what a sooty dusty mess! UGH!! I was coated in ash. AND, just for extra fun, I now smell like fireplace every morning when I dry my hair. The smoke smell is still in the hair dryer, and hasn't worked its way gone yet, so it blows into my hairs. No wonder you guys use OLD ones for the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, you don't want to blast into a cooker full of ashes.. but it works well when your lighting a fresh full bowl to get the small burning coals from the chimney to spread into the charcoal in the basket and to get to searing temps in a hurry. Also your S.O.B. (south of the border;-) cooker does not have the Komodo Kamado secret extra gravity ash reduction force field feature which is designed to minimize airborne ash particles..

Well, SHOOT! Now you tell me. With all the particulates I emitted, I'm sure I violated any number of environmental regulations. However, I'm sure there are some fellas around here who would think my new cologne (eau de ceramic cooker) is rather attractive. Better than musk!

hOTSAUCE Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Had to let you know Dennis, I used this here recipe per verbatim on a leg of lamb. Fresh rosemary from my garden. TO DIE FOR !! It was wonderful, I put it in my journal to make again for friends and family. I find the best thing about cooking with a KK is sharing the wonderful food it produces.
