Well, my son had a project to do on Iceland for his 5th grade class and it included things like culture, tourist attractions, geography, population, and of course, food. So he chose a leg of lamb recipe to present to the class. Anyway, long and short of it is ... it was a little different:

Crushed blueberries, EVOO, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper mixed together and then rubbed over the lamb. Cook for an hour and half @ 350. 20 minutes left until I sample it.

Should have just made some vegetable lamb soup. Easy peasy.

I let him pick the recipe. I was just glad he didn't choose some funky ass fish recipe that I know Iceland, Finland, Norway and the like are known for.

True. Saw a chick on tv pack some dogs in some sort of warm brine in a thermos. Went hiking for a few hours and then sat down and chowed on the dogs. Although she had them in some sort of wrap as opposed to a bun, but still looked good. I love a hotdog.

Eh, they serve them in buns. It is a fairly popular quick bite in Reykjavik

I’m not gonna lie, without even seeing that chick, I kinda wanna bang her.

Gonna try those tomorrow with a cauliflower purée and roasted carrots.

Those were done in a pressure cooker. I’d tried about a dozen different recipes the traditional way until I tried this.

Cuts six hours down to forty minutes, with better results.

How’d it turn out?

Really fuckin’ good. Made in a sauce with balsamic, tomato paste, coca powder, garlic, and Dijon mustard. The bone marrow made the sauce fucking delicious as it cooked. Rubbed the short ribs with a combo of rosemary, sage, paprika, and onion salt. It needs a little something, I’m not sure what though. Something to cut through the fat. Maybe a bit of something like apple cider vinegar, though I thought the balsamic would do it. Just needs a bit of tweaking.

Nice!

The bones would make it fantastic, but I had 5 lbs of boneless short ribs and I don't think there'd have been room in the pressure cooker with the bones. If I ever make it for a smaller group, I'd definitely go with the bone in.

I'm eager to try it again with some tweaks. My braising liquid was mostly wine, and the flavor was great, but I didn't allow it to reduce long enough before serving - I would have reduced more, but it was getting late and the family was hungry.

I might also reduce the cooking time of the ribs slightly. What's crazy is that with the pressure cooker, it takes almost as much time to reduce the sauce as it does to cook the ribs.

Any thoughts on how to cut through the richness and the fat?
