Caramelized Lamb Loin Chops & Potato Cakes

Plowboy · 02-14-2008, 07:09 PM

This was our Valentine's day meal. Wife ate three of the mini t-bones.

24 hour marinade
6 T brown sugar
4 T soy sauce
4T sherry or rice wine vinegar
4 cloves garlic finely chopped
4 T parsley

Grilled chops on the BGE until medium (about 135-145). Served with a balsamic reduction.

Used Ashmont's Potato Pancake recipe. Excellent.

Valentines for sweetie Fillet Mignon and (Happy Valentines Grandma Me Mee) German Potato Pancakes... By the way in Grandma's honor I used her cast iron skillet that I am sure cooked many before. Beef is gone before I knew it but did snap off a few pics with my Valentine eyes a rollin... lolol
I am so glad everyone has enjoyed the recipe. Please keep it alive. It has brought very much joy to the whole family since I have told them that I had posted the recipe with a great response. I have requested from family to find a picture of Grandma Me Mee to post here so everyone can see who passed this down. She was a great woman. So is my Valentine better go now....

Oh PS since I told the family there are some other recipe's coming from her cookbook as well as the other Grandma Martin. (What a great name) hehehe

PSS This recipe probably has not been made in our family in 30 years! Why is beyond me......
