Description

Today I make grilled lamb chops on my Weber Kettle with amazing results. Lamb videos are some of my least popular, but I keep making them because lamb is so underrated! Give this recipe a try!

Ingredients

Lamb loin chops
Kosher salt
16-mesh black pepper
Granulated garlic
Olive oil (e.g., eVo) for grilling

Tzatziki:

1 cucumber
Kosher salt
2 cups Greek yogurt
4 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Juice of 1 lemon
Freshly chopped dill
Fresh mint leaves

Instructions

Season the lamb loin chops generously on both sides with kosher salt, 16-mesh black pepper, and granulated garlic. Don't forget the sides.. Place the seasoned chops in the refrigerator until you're ready to grill.
To make the Tzatziki sauce, peel the cucumber and grate it using a box grater. Place the grated cucumber in a bowl and sprinkle with kosher salt. Let it sit for a few minutes to draw out excess moisture.
In a separate bowl, combine Greek yogurt, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, lemon juice, freshly chopped dill, and fresh mint leaves. Mix well.
Take the grated cucumber and squeeze out any excess liquid using a paper towel. Add the cucumber to the bowl with the yogurt mixture. Adjust the seasoning and mix until well combined. Taste and adjust the flavors according to your preference. Set the Tzatziki sauce aside.
Fire up the grill.
Place the lamb loin chops directly over the hot coals on the grill. Cook the chops, flipping them occasionally, for about 4-6 minutes per side or until they reach an internal temperature of 120-130°F (medium-rare).
When the lamb chops are almost done, brush them lightly with olive oil (e.g., eVo) to add some flavor and help with caramelization. Continue grilling for another minute or two on each side.
remove them from the grill and let them rest for about 10 minutes.
Enjoy the succulent lamb with the refreshing and tangy flavors of the Tzatziki.
