Ingredients

  • 4 racks breast of lamb about 7 ribs per rack Ask your butcher to cut them up individually.
  • These ribs can be smoked or fresh - I prefer them smoked
  • 1 pint ginger ale
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 5 whole cloves garlic
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 Tblsp grated fresh ginger
  • 6 cloves garlic crushed
  • 2 Tblsp brown/treacle sugar
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup soy suce
  • 2 Tblsp tomato paste
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 Tblsp coarsely ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Place the individually cut ribs in a pot.
  • Combine the ginger ale, bay leaves, garlic and salt and pour over the ribs.
  • Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 30 minutes, with the lid on the top, until most of the liquid boils away.
  • Remove the ribs from the pot and place in a roasting pan.
  • Combine all the basting ingredients in a bowl and pour over the ribs, ensuring that they are completely covered.
  • The ribs can now be either roasted or Bbq'd.
  • If you are going to Bbq them, Bbq until golden brown on both sides. They can then be placed in a preheated oven at 280 Deg. F to keep warm. If you are going to roast them, roast for at least 1 hour at 350 Deg F. until brown, turning them after 30 minutes. You can then reduce the heat to 280 Deg F to keep warm.
