Gonna try Lamb Chops over lump charcoal

[IronHavoc]

Never cooked lamb before, got some lamb chops to grill up.... plan is to season and cook direct heat over lump charoal and treat them like beef filet mignons ..... lets see how this goes.

Aright, hit them with direct heat, about 3 1/2 min a side, and cooked them to med rare. As I would a steak..... the whole family liked them, I would definitely do them again.

Love lamb.
What happened to our domestic lamb production? Everything I see these days is imported.

Mostly what I'm seeing is labeled as, "A product from New Zealand".

That's why.

Your chops look great. I would be proud to show that off.

Have some lamb and beef marinating for a Dec 26 party. Making donor kebobs.

I used the scrap pieces and made a nice lamb stew yesterday. It was seasoned heavily and cooked in an instapot. It came out better than expected and the meat was so tender.

I love those loin chops. Yours look perfect!

 

[IronHavoc]

These lamb chops were pretty good, I can see it making it a semi regular here at my house. Next time my try a few with a little spice to the rub or a spicy type little sauce to add on

I don't know what your stats mean Chris.
There is (and always has been) a large consumption of lamb in the US and most of it was domestically produced and very affordable until a number of years ago.
I don't know if this was a producer switch or a political switch.
