Succulent Grilled Lamb Chops with Signature Grill Marks

1. Season the lamb chops

Season your lamb chops generously with salt and fresh-ground black pepper. This enhances the meat's natural flavors and helps in forming a delicious crust during grilling.

2. Prepare the grill

Prepare a medium-hot bed of coals and give your grill a thorough cleaning with a brush to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.

3. Brush with oil

Brush each chop lightly with oil to prevent sticking and aid in browning.

4. Grill the chops

Place the chops on the hot grill, listening for the sizzle that signals the initial sear is locking in the juices. After three minutes, rotate the chops 45 degrees to create cross-hatch grill marks. After a total of six minutes, turn them over to cook evenly. Grill for about four more minutes, aiming for medium-rare doneness.

5. Rest and serve

Remove the chops from the grill and let them rest for about four minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in succulent and flavorful lamb chops.
