Marinated Grilled Rack of Lamb, Asparagus and Marry Me Mashed Potatoes.
I was so upset with my guy when he said he didn’t want to make a traditional turkey dinner this year because I LOVE mashed potatoes, especially at Thanksgiving! But he assured me I was going to love this dinner and to not worry, he would still make me my mashed potatoes just differently. "What!? Why?" He just said "Trust Me". “URGH”!
But OMG! WOW! Grilled Marinated Rack of Lamb, with Grilled Asparagus and Marry Me Mashed Potatoes! Yes, Yes, Yes!! His dinner was FABULOUS! And the Mashed Potatoes? Maybe the best ever!!
The night before Thanksgiving he started prepping the lamb. After slicing the ribs, he carefully paired the perimeter fat off the ribs and left lollipops at the ends. He said the extra fat would cause too much flare-ups on the grill and cook meat unevenly. (He knows I’d never touch one of those ribs with fat clinging to them!! ) Next, he whipped up a simple marinade with fresh rosemary, thyme and smoky paprika and dropped in the ribs to marinate overnight. Watch the video for a quick summary.

This Red Blend from Spain, Rosso Quattro was an excellent pairing with the lamb. Buy it if you find it!!

A five star dining experience for sure! Love his passion for cooking! I finished off the potatoes the day after for dinner. Yep, just the potatoes that is all I need! 🥰
