Grilled Lamb Chops

Delicate flavors, mouthwatering aromas, are just some of the things you will be experiencing when you try my delicious grilled lamb chops!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • 3 cloves of garlic
  • 1/4 cup of olive oil
  • 1/4 cup of water
  • Basil
  • Meat Tenderizer (unseasoned)
  • Black Pepper
  • Salt
  • 4 lbs. of Lamb Chops
  • Small bowl
  • Gallon sized sandwich bags
  • Basting Brush
  • For the Grill:
  • Charcoal
  • Lighter Fluid
  • Matches or a lighter
  • Gas Grill:
  • Start grill as instructed by manufacturer
  1. Step 1

    First gather all of the ingredients and materials needed. Next mince the garlic and put it into the bowl. Combine the remaining ingredients in the bowl, except the meat tenderizer. Use the amounts of basil, salt and pepper to taste. Mix lightly with brush.

  2. Step 2

    Take the lamb chops out of the package and rinse them. Season both sides of the chops with the tenderizer generously. Put the chops inside of the sandwich bags. Depending on the size they should fit 4 to a bag. Pour the mixture in each bag and seal it. Coat the chops with the mixture by turning the bag upside down, in a light massaging motion. Place the bags in the refrigerator.

  3. Step 3

    Now its time to get the grill started. Remove the top rack from the grill and place the charcoals in a pyramid shape inside of the grill. Pour the lighter fluid on the coals. Light the fire and let it burn naturally down. Once the coals have turned white on the top and the bottoms are glowing red, replace the rack.

  4. Step 4

    Take the lamb chops out of the refrigerator and pour the excess mixture off into a bowl. Using a stick, mix the coals around. Place the lamb chops on the rack and close the lid. After about ten minutes, brush the chops and turn them over. Repeat this step until the chops are cooked to your desired consistency.

Tips & Warnings
  • Fresh lemon or lime juice are great to give your chops an extra zip!
  • Preparing the chops for grilling the night before will give them a fuller flavor.
  • Using water flavored with the same seasoning as your meat, to keep the flame down, enhances the flavor.
  • Always be careful when using lighters and lighter fluid.
  • Be mindful of how close you are to the grill when starting your fire.
  • Keep lighters, lighter fluid, and all flammable objects away from children.
