Salmon, Chicken and a rack of Lamb for Friday evening Dinner

[Hopefull Romantic]

I am having some family over for dinner tomorrow night and when asked what they would like, three different kinds of meat were requested; my wife and son wanted the salmon, my Dad and uncle wanted lamb and my aunt wanted chicken. So, what the heck, I am going to try and please them all.
So here we have the salmon sitting pretty in its brine the the fridge drawer. I used a simple alt / b. sugar brine and added garlic powder, ginger and a pinch of Cayenne.

The chicken is bathing in its Korean marinade of sugar, soya, water, onion powder, ginger and lemon juice and zest.

And the feast DE resistance, a rack of lamb happily covered up in Bradley's paste for leg of lamb.


All in the fridge for an overnight to be smoked tomorrow afternoon to be served in the evening along with some special baked potato and some salad. Did I mention the my 12 year old daughter wants my special cheese cake? Well she does and that will be done tomorrow.
Stay tuned for posted results and in process pics.

Wow!

Will you tie that rack-o'-lamb so it stands up?

[Hopefull Romantic]

I was thinking about that squirt. The problem I am having is that the chicken is going to be a beer but chicken (standing up) and there will be two of those (the other one will be a simple P & S rub).

I will see tomorrow and if I can I will.

My butcher said that bone and the meat encasing it is almost 2/3s of the whole rack. I made some slithers in the meat and stuffed it with paste and it would be a good place to stick my ET73 probe in.

You are right, it is a feastand my biggest challenge so far.

Thank you guys for your good wishes. Here are the chicken and the rack of lamb sitting happily in the Bradley.
The chiken on the right has smokeville chinese rub and the one on the left was marinated overnight in the korean marinade.

HR,
Just a suggestion but you might want to rearrange your racks so the chicken is under the lamb and the chicken juices are not dripping on the lamb.

BTW, the bones being exposed on the rack of lamb is a big fancy cooking term called "frenching the bones".

All looks great!
