This recipe can be made at anytime of the year. Lamb is normally

served at Easter, we decided to make Lamb for

Thanksgiving because we wanted a non traditional Thanksgiving,

baking sheet with foil. Mix all ingredients in a small bowl. Transfer crumbs

to the sheet and bake until golden brown, 8-10 minutes. Watch carefully

to prevent burning. Remove from oven and cool. Place in an air tight

container until ready to use.


To make the lamb...

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, season lamb with salt and pepper.

Cut each rack in half. Pour olive oil into a large oven proof saute pan

over medium high heat. Place lamb fat side down in saute pan and sear all

sides about 5-7 minutes.


Transfer lamb to oven and cook until desired temperature, 145 for well done,

115-120 for medium rare. While the lamb is cooking make your rosemary au jus.

1c beef stock

2T unsalted butter


To make au jus... Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic, shallots,

rosemary, peppercorns, bay leaf and wine. Cook until reduced by half about

15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and strain, discard solids. Return liquid

to pan. Add butter 1T at a time over low heat, whisking well. Season to taste.

Turn your burner to low and make sure you stir frequently while lamb is cooking.


Once the lamb has reached the desired temp remove from oven, immediately

cover with foil and allow to rest for about 10 minutes. Brush the mustard

  The kids deserve a special drink for the fall besides apple cider. This is a great fall mocktail with a beautiful flavor combination. Not just for the kiddos. This makes 1 drink What  you'll need: 3 oz still apple cider 1 oz freshly squeezed lime juice 6 mint leaves 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar Pinch powdered cinnamon 3 oz ginger ale Create: Place apple cider, lime juice, cinnamon, apple cider vinegar and a few ice cubes into a cocktail shaker.

Shake for about 20-30 seconds until ingredients are combined. Pour into an ice filled glass and top with ginger ale. Stir gently, garnish with mint, dried citrus or a cinnamon stick, and serve.
