Minted Lamb Rib

One I ate earlier

Minted lamb ribs are a great snack and it always puzzles me why more eateries don't sell it to hungry shoppers. Do people not get tired of pasties all the time? I love pasties but its good to have change, and there's nothing better than chowing down on ribs for that change. (They are almost as tasty as bacon. But not quite). Make sure you choose a rack which has a crispy skin on it.
Ribs won't be to everyones taste because there is a lot of fat on them (don't mention them to your doctor) but for lovers of fatty meat they are fantastic. Oh and eat them the Henry VIII way, with your hands, tearing strips of flesh like a modern day savage. It really is the only way. Forks are for noobs. To be honest you would struggle trying to eat this the 'polite' way because they are quite tough. Nope, fingers are the way forward here like chicken drumsticks.
Lamb ribs are not the most filling of snacks but they can more fun to eat than a cheeseburger.

A Tongue In The Ribs

Ribs: Always wanting more.

Pork ribs, preferably smothered in barbecue sauce, are a bloody delicious (not to mention messy) meal to have whilst shanting (boozing) I remember first having pork ribs in barbie sauce in 1985 when the first Chinese takeaway opened in my hometown and thats the dish my 14 year old self picked from the very weird looking menu. (Bear in mind foreign food was really rare to find back then in such a small town).
So this has always been a firm favourite when I get my mucky paws on it. And boy do I get mucky ! Grease, sauce and alcohol smear my chops like I was a modern day, Mastodon loving, tattooed Henry VIII ! F**king right. These beauties only take 30 mins in the oven, so there is no danger of falling into a Jag induced coma while waiting for them to cook. Personally when im shanting I eat them on their own (around 8 ribs) with a few slices of bread. Sure you can add egg fried rice or a few chips (fries) but I find that too much to pass out on, and the f**king mess rice makes when one is blotto is crazy. You keep finding rice behind the cushions and by the cat bowl a week after eating it.
No, ribs and booze is fine. Best tunes to eat it to ~ Cannibal Corpse, WASP, Obituary, Turisas.
