Garlic Rosemary Pecan Smoked Lamb Loin Chops

Moose · 06-17-2010, 12:17 PM

Found some really nice lamb loin chops at Costco the other day, and decided to marinate them in fresh chopped garlic, rosemary from the garden, salt & pepper, and EVOO.

I then placed the chops along with the marinade ingredients in a ziploc so they could soak in the goodness overnight:

The next evening, I fired up the kingsford oval, and added a nice chunk of pecan to the hot coals:

I then put the chops on the cool side of the grill so they could get some nice smoke flavor:

About 20 mins later, I turned them. At this point the grill thermo read 300:

After another ten mins, time to give them a nice finishing sear on the hot side of the grill:

I then placed the chops upright to ensure the meat closest to the bone was equally done with the other quadrants of the chops:

I then pulled them, and let them rest for about 10 mins, and here they are plated and ready to eat:

Thanks for checking out my Lamb Chops!

I'm not a big fan of lamb, but those look great! Maybe your marinade would change my mind.

Wow, thanks, Bill. Coming from you, that's a major award!

FYI - My Mom's from Australia (I have family scattered all over down under - Perth, Brisbane, Mt. Isa etc)

Been eating lamb since I was a kid, largely in part thanks to her...
