Categories     Father's Day     Summer     grilled     meat

Time 1h5m

Yield 4-6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lb. lamb rib or loin chops
2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground black pepper
1/2 c. chopped fresh parsley
1 tbsp. chopped fresh oregano
1/2 c. plus 2 tbsp. olive oil
2 garlic cloves, grated

2 tsp. honey
1/4 tsp. red chile flakes
1 c. chopped mixed olives

Steps:

  • Add lamb chops to a resealable plastic bag. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chops: Look for chops that are about 1-inch thick and have a good amount of marbling. Avoid chops that are too thin or too thick, as they will not cook evenly.
  • Brine the chops: Brining the chops in a mixture of water, salt, and sugar will help to tenderize them and keep them moist. Brine the chops for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  • Season the chops: Before grilling, season the chops with a mixture of your favorite spices. Some good options include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Grill the chops over indirect heat: This will help to prevent them from overcooking and drying out. Grill the chops for about 10-12 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chops rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chops, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Barbecued pork chops are a delicious and easy-to-make summer meal. By following these tips, you can ensure that your chops are cooked perfectly every time. Serve the chops with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or coleslaw.
