The elevated flavor of rosemary and garlic, combined with juicy grilled tomatoes make this a grilled dish worthy of holidays, get-togethers, or parties.

Christmas ribs, that is what our family calls them. The ribs are often slowly grilled in the cold Christmas Eve glow of our home, with the scent of garlic and rosemary filling the crisp outdoor air. Gathering around the table to enjoy the sweet and flavorful taste and smell of this grilled rib recipe is a family tradition.
