roasted bone marrow

This roasted bone marrow is a cinch to make. Sprinkle it with salt and roast until rich, unctuous, and irresistible. Simply the best. Here's how to make it.

Roasted Bone Marrow

Coarse sea salt

Brine

Fill a large bowl halfway with ice water and add 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt per 1 cup water. Add the marrow bones and refrigerate for 12 to 24 hours, changing the water every 4 hours and replacing the salt each time.☞TESTER TIP: Some testers have asked us, &quot;Do I need to soak the bones?&quot; The answer is yes. This removes the blood and any impurities from the marrow.

Drain

Drain the bones, cover, and refrigerate until you&#39;re ready to roast the marrow. Drain the bones and pat them dry. Be sure to roast the soaked marrow within 24 hours or freeze the drained bones for up to 3 months.

Preheat

Roast

Place the drained and dried marrow bones in a roasting pan. If the bones are cut crosswise, place them standing up; if the bones are cut lengthwise, place them cut side up. Roast for 15 to 25 minutes, until the marrow has puffed slightly and is warm in the center. To test for doneness, insert a metal skewer into the center of the bone, then touch it to your wrist to gauge the marrow’s temperature; the roasted bone marrow should be very hot. There should be no resistance when the skewer is inserted and some of the marrow will have started to leak from the bones.

Serve

Serve the roasted bone marrow immediately with spoons for scooping.

Roasted Beef Marrow Bones Recipe

beef marrow bones (8 inches (20.3 cm) each)

cooking oil

bread crumbs

baguette (about 8" (20.3 cm) long)

Prep. Rinse the bones to get off any bone dust and splinters. There may be meat and fat on the outside of the bone. You can scrape it off if you wish, but I usually leave it on in case I want to gnaw on the bone afterwards. When you are ready to cook, paint the cut side with oil and sprinkle on some seasoned bread crumbs. If I have fresh herbs, I use them.

Fire up. Preheat the grill in a 2-zone configuration and get the indirect zone up to 325°F (162.8°C).

Roast. Place the bones in a baking pan or cookie sheet lined with foil so drippings don&#39;t make a mess of your grill or cause a major flare-up. Roast them  in the indirect zone for about 30 minutes until the marrow is 150°F (65.6°C) and like jello.

Toast. Cut the baguette on the bias into 1/4-inch (6.4 mm) slices. While the bones are roasting, toast the baguette slices on the direct heat side of the grill. They&#39;ll brown quickly so keep a close eye on them and don&#39;t let them burn.

Serve. When the bones are done, give them a squeeze of lemon juice and spread the marrow on the toast. Now you know why Western settlers called marrow &quot;prairie butter&quot;. An alternative: Try topping the marrow with chimichurri sauce. The brightness of the acidity is a perfect marriage.
