Details

Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat the Grill or Oven
Prepare your grill for medium-high, indirect heat. Alternatively, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C.)
Prepare the Garlic Topping
In a small bowl, mix together the minced garlic, olive oil, chopped parsley, dried oregano, coarse sea salt, and black pepper.
Season the Marrow
Place the marrow bones on a baking sheet or directly on the grill grate, marrow-side up. Spoon the garlic and herb mixture evenly over the marrow on each bone.
Grill or Roast
Place the bones on the indirect heat side of the grill and cook for 15-25 minutes, or until the marrow is soft, gelatinous, and bubbling. If using an oven, roast for about 20 minutes. The marrow is done when it is soft enough to be easily scooped out.
Serve
Carefully remove the bones from the grill or oven. Serve immediately with warm corn tortillas, allowing guests to scoop the rich, garlicky marrow onto them. Garnish with fresh chopped onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice to taste.
