Sous Vide Lamb Ribs Temperature Guide
Lamb ribs (breast) are the bargain cut nobody knows what to do with — until they sous vide them. A long cook at 165°F melts the collagen into tender, rich, falling-off-the-bone meat that takes glazes beautifully.

Buying advice
Cook at 165°F for 8-12 hours. Season with salt, pepper, and a dry rub (paprika, cumin, garlic powder) in the bag. After the bath, pat dry and finish: brush with a glaze (honey-mustard, pomegranate, or BBQ) and broil 5-7 minutes until sticky and charred at the edges. Serve as appetizers or a main with plenty of napkins.
