Sweet! Keep eating it. We'll make more! 

Never done it as a rack here. Grew up with chops and have always had it packaged that way. Easier when eating just ourselves or a small group to make just what we need. I'm an improviser, starting off with a base recipe of marinades. My standby is pineapple, soy sauce, garlic & curry powder, seasoned to taste. Fresh pineapple juice is best as it will make already tender lamb even more tender. I like to marinade 24 hrs. in the fridge. Sometimes I'll do the legs split on the rotisserie as pictured or as shish kebob if I'm feeling ambitious. I'm still looking to find a recipe a friend and I made once when we were in college. It included plain yogurt, fresh ginger root we diced up and garlic. It came from some mideastern or Greek cookbook he brought over. It was not in English but it was phenomenal! I didn't write it down tho and got way too messed up making it to remember how we did it. I'll keep looking until I find one someday that looks similar to try. If it's good I'll write it down.

Make me some, then you can teach me how to prune my trees.

[Dotch]

Reminds me, another project I gotta finish. After pussy willow harvest Saturday, I pruned the Haralson & got halfway thru the Fireside before the wind about blew me out of it. Much more fun to watch basketball. After I get mine done I have a customer's trees to prune yet. I could stop up and give you some ideas if you seriously need some help. Better get off to the grocery store now. Wanna let the lambs loose after that. Too nice for them to be cooped up any longer.

[glenn57]

Momma went to st cloud today. Stopped by Costco. Man do they have good fruits. Strawberries are good, good grapes and there pineapple is too notch. So are the apples and oranges.

[mike89]

[snow1]

morning fellers, so far nice morning little glow to the east,looks like clouds rolling in later with rain this evening,oh well better than snow...ya'll have a great weekend.

[Jerkbiat]

Morning boys. TGIF!!!! At least to us working folk.  25 here this morning heading for somewhere around 40. Sounds like right around 40 tomorrow too. I will sneak out on da lake this weekend. Sis in law and her hubby will be up tonight and a couple buddies are going to come up for the day tomorrow. Hope da fishies cooperate and we keep our dingle berries on the top side of the ice. Well, one more day in the salt mines. Have a good one boys.

[mike89]

mornin all, 25 to start the day here...  got a few things to do today, the son and his family are coming up tonight...  got chicken and tater salad on the supper menu..  it will be my first time making the tater salad..  oh the adventures!!!  got to go to Alex and get a few things for the meal today too..  have a good day all!!!   

[snow1]

LOL mike,I cheat when I want tater salad,here in white bear lake our kowalski has a couple great tater salads after a little doctoring like yellow mustard diced spicey pickles and pickle juice,radashes sliced etc... she's blue ribbon,goodluck.

Dotch,pineapple juice eh? I'll give it a whirl next time,have the same weber roto setup you have,tried a whole leg of lamb on it ,turned out tough,bend your fork tough like raw hide,I usually do a 24hr marinaide as well,but in a hurry for same day cook out,I use a food saver container,sucks the jucies in to the meat in 30 minutes,one would swear it was a over night marinaide

Thanx for the intel.

[LPS]

Morning boys.  Clear and 22 here at the moment.  Sounds like some rain/snow tonight.  Painted my grate yesterday.  Will have to get some pics of it to show you.  May head out to the landfill today.  Have lots of cardboard for them to process.  Visit with the guys too.  That hydrant that was froze is shot.  Does not work now so am not going to touch it till the backhoe is sitting here.  I want to put in a new one.  If I try to fix it and if it doesn't work we will have a mess.  Don't want that.  Well have a great Friday. 

[glenn57]

morning fellers.........hopefully finish the sled today.

cloudy and 26 when i looked. we shall see what other trouble  i can find!!!!!!!!

[Gunner55]

Mornin gang, we had 26* early & we might not make 45* today, I'm hearin.  & damp here tomorrow as well, 1 site even has some in it but I'm not believin that. Looks like the list is pretty short again today but have a couple things to get at this morning. That's it for now, hopin your Friday's a good 1.

[Dotch]

Mornin' gang! 28 at choretime heading for a high in the low 50's. More rain on the way for later tonite into the forenoon tomorrow. Doesn't sound like a lot but it doesn't have to be. Soil profile is full presently here. Got the ewes with lambs out into the expanded paddock yesterday afternoon. Cut some nice ruts moving troughs & feeders around. All of the critters went nuts, ewes included. hopping, running and jumping. Some of the lambs discovered the electric fence so that was another plus. Gotta start 'em young! 

As I've mentioned snow one of the biggest problems the sheep industry has is putting a consistent product on the market or placing the desired product in the proper market. It's consistently inconsistent without knowing the source. 

[snow1]

Dotch gotta tell ya "lamb on the grill" is my favorite,but spendy up here,last I checked on a 8 bone rack last fall it was $55,yikes.My marinaide is usually olive oil,fresh rosemary,chopped garlic,shot of red wine iffin I have it crushed black pepper,dash of soy sauce,but pinapple juice sounds interesting.might be good for waterfowl as I usually use coke over night to sweeten and draw blood,also tenderizes.

[mike89]

mornin all, 39 this morning with rain still in the area...  it will really green up now...  sure was good to the son and his family when they got here yesterday...  well I have to think about breakfast for all!!!  have a good day all!!   

[glenn57]

morning fellers........momma left already to go babysit grandkids already...so that leaves me with the 2 hounddogs.  looks like a soggy day.

i got my speaker wires to my outdoor speakers fixed yesterday that shadow chewed off when he was a wee but younger......... worked on the sled a bit, ran into an issue i didnt see coming!!!!   but a little inginuity and i should wrap it up today!!!!!! 

[Gunner55]

Mornin gents, we have 31* & are on our way to 40*. The ground is white again & it's still coming down. We had about 1 1/2" when I stepped out around 7. Just heard that the lady that reports to WCCO, she's out on the main lake(~ 3 - 4 miles by wheeler), reported 4" out there. Gonna be an inside day here as well. I did get the new primer bulb on the auger yday morning & it actually went better than expected as it wasn't the easiest to get at. 'Bout it from this neck of the woods, have a good day.

[LPS]

Morning boys.  It is 32.5 and wet here.  The deck is still wet and we do have a couple of puddles.  Don't think we got much be it all helps.  No big plans for the day that I know of yet.  That is ok too.  May watch the NDSU and USD game today.  ??  Have a great Saturday. 

[markn]

Three more loads from the small garage to the storeage place yesterday, just about done cleaning it out so it can be moved. One more cup of "Highlander Grog" and breakfast. Have a great weekend, Later....

[mike89]

hey Mark was that you that had the garage sale sign on 82???

[markn]

Negative Mike. The last garage sale the Mrs. had here it pissed me off when everyone had to look behind the curtains I put up so they see wouldn't the rest of the stuff in the garage and ask if it's for sale too. 
I usually set my treasures at the end of the driveway along with a "free" or for sale sign. Nothing lasts very long before it's gone.
