Each pack contains 2 slabs of the finest New Zealand lamb spare ribs. Spare ribs come from the belly section and are therefore tougher than lamb chops or tenderloin filets. We do not recommend these for the grill or the fry-pan but rather for slow-cooking. Slow-cooking them long enough will make these spare-ribs extremely tender falling off the bone - extremely flavorful and worth the long(er) cooking time. The fat cap will render beautifully during the prolonged cooking process providing the spare ribs with extra juiciness and succulent flavor. Before cooking, you will have to cut the slab into individual ribs. For that, we recommend using a large and sharp knife. Do not season excessively - high-quality lamb does not come with gamey flavor or odors. All you need is salt, pepper, garlic powder, and olive oil.
New Zealand lamb is internationally known for its superior quality and taste. Our New Zealand lamb takes it one step further: All year free-range open pasture-raised, grass-fed lambs. Free of growth-promoting hormones and subtherapeutic use of antibiotics. This is the finest lamb available. If you have never tried lamb or had a bad experience with lamb in the past we urge you to give New Zealand premium quality lamb a try. However, lamb spare ribs are probably not what you want to begin with if you are new to lamb. Our lamb comes from family-owned and operated farms and ranches in New Zealand only. Ethical raising has always been the cultural tradition in New Zealand.
