Slow Roasted Lamb Necks, Simply Majestic
Delicious Lamb Neck Recipe with Majestic Spice Rub - Perfect for Lamb Lovers!
If you haven't tried Lamb Necks, you're missing out! Follow our simple recipe to impress everyone with this hidden gem. All you need are Lamb Necks, Majestic Spice Rub, olive oil, and a little patience. Let's get started!
Preheat your oven to around 150-160°C. Place the Lamb Necks in a deep tray, fat side up. Give them a drizzle of olive oil and a generous sprinkle of Majestic Spice Rub. Make sure to keep some spice rub for later - trust us!
Rub the spice rub all over the Lamb Necks, covering them completely. Then, tightly cover the tray with foil. Pop the tray into the oven and set a timer for about 3.5 hours. Cooking times may vary depending on your oven and the size of the Lamb Necks, so use this as a starting point.
When the timer goes off, check if the meat is falling off the bones. If not, simply put it back in the oven for another 30 minutes, checking periodically until it's ready to be pulled.
Once the Lamb Necks are ready, turn your oven up to about 210°C. Carefully remove all the meat from the bones, trying to keep it in big chunks (watch out for small bones). Don't discard the fat - it's what makes Lamb Necks amazing! Leave the fat in the tray with the meat to keep it juicy and flavorful.
Place the pulled Lamb Neck meat back into the tray and sprinkle with another handful of Majestic Spice Rub, ideally in a chef-like, exaggerated manner for extra flavor. Place the tray back into the hot oven, uncovered, and let the heat caramelize the rub and render down the fat for about 10-15 minutes. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning.
And there you have it - a simple yet majestic Lamb Neck dish! Serve it with pita bread, pickled onions, hommus or tzatziki, and some greens for a delicious meal. Pro tip: If you want to serve the Lamb Necks on the bone for presentation, follow the same steps but skip pulling the meat off the bone. Still sprinkle with extra spice rub and cook at 210°C for 10-15 minutes, leaving the fat intact.
Indulge in the aroma and taste of this mouthwatering Lamb Neck recipe with Majestic Spice Rub - it's truly a treat for lamb lovers!
