  • 325 to 350, took about 50 minutes.

    Removed it rare and let it sit for about 10 minutes.

    No leftovers. Go figure.

    Think there will be any left overs for "YAK LONEY"?
  • Hatchling the rack looks fabulous. Did you marinate with herbs or do any type of crusting on the rack. Also how much did it weigh?
  • I had never even seen a Rack of Veal before, that's why I bought it. The butcher I bought it from said he only carries it for certain holidays, because it wasn't cheap.... :( (CDN $72.00 - USD $70.00)

    I can't remember the weight, but it was probably 5 - 7 LBs.

    I didn't use any flavoured wood during cooking because I didn't want to take a chance changing the natural veal flavour.

    We marinated overnight in a ziplock freezer bag filled with white wine,crushed garlic cloves, rosemary, thyme and lemon juice.

    No crusting on the rack. The butcher had it tied up (sorry, should have taken a picture tied up) and we cooked it at 325 - 350 on a v-rack, raised grid.

    I must say it was one of the top 3 pieces of meat I have ever had, highly recommend it, but you'll have to sell a kidney to buy it.
  • $72 is not cheap but how much have you spent on meals that didn't make it into your top 3? Restaurant would have been about 200. Great cook!
