Declaration of love for the veal rack from the Kamado Grill

Sometimes you come across dishes that blow you away. I recently had this experience with a magnificent rack of veal that I cooked on my Kamado grill. The combination of quality meat, thoughtful preparation, and the outstanding end result completely captivated me! 🤩✨ The great thing about it is: It seems more difficult than it actually is.

The veal rack – the star of the evening 🌟

Veal is something very special to me. 🐄 With its tender, delicately aromatic flavor, it's perfect for the kamado grill. As a whole piece, the veal rack remains juicy and intensely flavorful. If you grill it properly, it's guaranteed to be the highlight of your dinner. 🍽️

This is what you need for your perfect veal rack 🛒👩‍🍳

Ingredients:

  • 1 veal rack (approx. 1.5 kg)
  • 2–3 tbsp olive oil 🫒
  • 2 sprigs of rosemary 🌿
  • 2 sprigs of thyme 🌱
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed 🧄
  • Coarse sea salt 🧂 and freshly ground pepper
  • For preparation:

  • Kamado Grill 🔥
  • Deflector stone for indirect heat
  • Grill thermometer 🌡️
  • How to make the veal rack 👌🍖

    1. Preparation of the veal rack

  • Remove the veal rack from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before grilling to bring it to room temperature. 🕒
  • Rub the meat generously with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Keep the aromatic herb sprigs and garlic ready; you'll use them later. 🌿🧄
  • 2. Prepare the Kamado

  • Preheat your Kamado grill to about 250°C. Make sure the coals are well-heated, as intense heat is needed for searing. 🔥
  • Prepare the deflector stone so you can switch to indirect heat later.
  • 3. Sear it – the crust makes it 🍳🔥

  • Place the veal rack directly over the coals. Sear it for about 2 minutes on each side until a golden brown crust forms. 💛
  • Place the herbs and garlic next to the meat on the grill so the flavors can fully develop. 🌱🧄
  • 4. Indirectly pull to perfection 🕒🌡️

  • Once the crust is perfect, place the veal rack on the deflector stone and reduce the grill temperature to approximately 130°C.
  • Use a grill thermometer to check the core temperature. A temperature of 58–60°C is ideal to keep the veal rack tender and juicy. 💗
  • Depending on the thickness of the meat, this will take about 30–40 minutes. Patience is worth it. ⏳
  • 5. Let it rest and serve 🍴🎉

  • Once the ideal core temperature is reached, remove the veal rack from the grill and let it rest for about 10 minutes. 😌
  • Cut the meat between the bones into individual pieces and serve on a rustic wooden board.
  • My conclusion: Incredibly tender and tasty 🤩🔥🍽️

    The result of this preparation was simply stunning. The veal rack was buttery soft, juicy, and offered the perfect blend of roasted aromas and delicate meat flavor. The Kamado grill proves once again why it's my absolute favorite grill.

    This dish is not only a culinary delight, but also a real experience to prepare. 💫 So, if you're looking to grill something special, give this recipe a try—it certainly won't disappoint! 😊

    Have fun grilling and enjoy your meal! 🍀🔥🍖
