Lamb Loin Chops ala Moose & D Riches
I don't cook a lot of lamb so when I went looking for a recipe and cooking method, I found a recipe from Derrick Riches and a tasty looking post by brother Moose a few months ago and decided to combine the two.
I picked up these natural lamb loin chops (imported from New Zealand): and got together these ingredients (lemon & garlic not shown - I didn't have a lemon and was too lazy to run out for one and garlic was used but missed the pic): let them marinate for 5-6 hours: then fired up the Mini Egg with a couple of pieces of Green Leaf's wine infused oak for a little smoke: got them Egg temp set at 300 and put the chops on: flipped them once: then pulled them off for a brief rest to open up the Egg for a searing temp (the Mini gets to searing temp really quick! - a little past where I was aiming for here): then seared them on each side and included the bone side (ala Moose): pulled them off when they ranged from medium (thinnest ones) to medium-rare: and plated with some green beans and rice*: *Lazy man's disclaimer - my wife normally handles the veggies and sides but was too busy. I had time to cook these but took the lazy man's way out and used canned green beans and leftover rice. Good thing they're all fuzzy in the pic. I mentioned on the 2nd pic that I was lazy! The lamb was delicious and something I need to cook more often!

Wow, that's some of the tastiest looking lamb I've seen! Beautifully done, and amazing pics.
Did you notice a difference by placing them bone side down at the end of the cook? I find it really helps...

As for placing them bone side down at the end, it makes sense to me but honestly the last time I grilled lamb loin chops (same recipe) was in May of last year and that's too far back for me to remember. I only know when because I still have the printout of the recipe that was dated and has a written note where I rated it "8 out of 10". This time, my wife & I would give it a 9 out of 10 so I wouldn't be suprised if your cooking method made the difference! It was definitely tasty and I won't be waiting so long to cook them again! Thanks everyone else for the compliments as well!
