Ingredients

• ¼ cup brown sugar
• 1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons chili powder
• ¼ cup dry white wine
• 3 dashes liquid smoke flavoring
• 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• ⅛ cup chopped fresh parsley
• 2 each lemons, juiced
• 4 raw chop with refuse, 120 g; (blank) 4.225 ounces lamb chops
• ⅛ cup chopped fresh mint
• 1 tablespoon ground dried chipotle pepper
• 5 dashes Worcestershire sauce

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Rinse lamb chops and pat dry. Set aside.

Step 3

Whisk lemon juice, white wine, brown sugar, parsley, mint, vinegar, chili powder, chipotle powder, garlic, Worcestershire, liquid smoke, salt, and black pepper together in a large mixing bowl to emulsify. Add lamb chops. Marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.

Step 4

Cook lamb chops on the preheated grill until browned and only slightly pink in the centers, brushing with marinade frequently, about 6 minutes per side. Stand chops upright for the final turn, which heats the bone and cooks the meat internally. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Rest lamb chops for about 3 minutes before serving.
