Herb Grilled Australian Lamb Ribeye Recipes

GRILLED LEG OF LAMB

Steps:

• Combine the yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a large non-reactive bowl. Add the lamb, making sure it is covered with marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator, covered, overnight or for up to 3 days.
• Bring the lamb to room temperature. Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals. Scrape the marinade off the lamb, wipe the meat with paper towels, and season it generously with salt and pepper. Brush the grill with oil to keep the lamb from sticking, and grill on both sides until the internal temperature is 120 to 125 degrees for rare. This will take 40 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how hot the grill is.
• Remove the lamb to a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 20 minutes. Then slice and serve.

HERB-ROASTED LAMB

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven so the lamb will sit in the middle of the oven.
• Peel 6 of the cloves of garlic and place them in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Add the rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, and butter. Process until the garlic and rosemary are finely minced. Thoroughly coat the top and sides of the lamb with the rosemary mixture. Allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Toss the potatoes and remaining unpeeled garlic in a bowl with the olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place in the bottom of a large roasting pan. Place the lamb on top of the potatoes. Roast for 20 minutes. Turn the heat down to 350 degrees F and roast for another 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until a meat thermometer registers 130 to 135 degrees F for medium-rare. Place the lamb on a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Slice and serve with the potatoes.

GRILLED BONE-IN RIBEYE WITH HOMEMADE HERB BRUSH

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium-high (400 degrees F) and prepare half for indirect grilling. Remove the steaks from the refrigerator, pat them dry and let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling.
• To make the herb brush: Starting with the basil, gather the herbs and work around the tip of an 8-inch-long metal skewer. Tie them tightly to the skewer with kitchen twine. Trim the ends of the kitchen twine so there are no long ends. Set aside until ready to grill.
• After the steaks have sat out for 30 minutes, brush both sides with the vegetable oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Transfer the meat to the hot side of the grill for 4 minutes. While the steak is grilling, melt the butter in a small cast iron skillet or saucepan on the grill. Flip the steaks after 4 minutes and baste with the butter, using the herb brush. Grill the steak for an additional 4 minutes.
• Transfer the steaks to the indirect heat side of the grill and baste with the butter and herb brush once again, being sure to leave about 2 tablespoons of the butter in the skillet and remove from the grill. Cook the steaks, undisturbed, over indirect heat until they register 125 to 130 degrees F with an instant read thermometer for medium-rare.
• In the meantime, finely chop the garlic on a large wood cutting board with a juice groove. Season the garlic with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Use the flat side of your knife to mash the garlic and salt together to create a paste. Pour the remaining butter from the skillet onto the cutting board. Use a fork to spread the mixture on the surface area of the board. Cut the kitchen twine from the herb brush and lay the herbs on top of the garlic mixture. Remove the steaks from the grill and rest them on top of the herbs and garlic mixture for 10 minutes before slicing.
• After 10 minutes, remove the bone from the steaks and slice against the grain. Place the meat on the herbs and serve directly from the seasoned cutting board.

HERB GRILLED RIB LAMB CHOPS
