Lamb Chops with Malt Salt Recipe

We did lamb chops on the grill this past week. Easy, delicious, food you can eat with your hands. In times past, we have used a changing blend of herbs and spices to season our summer chops. But time was short and we were hungry, so we defaulted to easiest and best: Rocklands Malt Salt.

Rocklands Malt Salt is your secret weapon, a flavor boost for any protein on the grill (or in the oven, when the weather turns cooler). While others worry about finishing salts, you can use this starting salt — a layer that goes on BEFORE you cook — to amaze your family and guests.

Here’s the “recipe” for lamb chops — any size — on your summer grill:

Yields: Serves 2 or more (2 chops per person)
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10-15 minutes
Total Time: 15-20 minutes

Ingredients

• Lamb chops (any size, at least 2 per person)
• Rocklands Malt Salt

Equipment

• Grill
• Tongs

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill: Heat your gas grill or prepare your charcoal grill. We recommend using real wood charcoal, no additives.
2. Prep the lamb chops: Take the lamb chops out of the fridge, pat the dry with paper towels.
3. Season generously: Sprinkle both sides of the lamb chops liberally with Rocklands Malt Salt.
4. Grill the chops: Place the chops on the hot grill and do not move them for a few minutes. Let them sear undisturbed until blood comes up through the top.
5. Flip and cook: Flip the chops and cook for another few minutes on the other side, or until desired doneness is reached.
6. Rest and enjoy: Remove the chops from the grill and tent them loosely with foil to let them rest for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute for a more flavorful and tender bite.
7. Serve: Enjoy your lamb chops with your favorite grilled sides, such as roasted peaches, fresh corn, or tomato salad.

Tips:

• The cooking time for the lamb chops will vary depending on their thickness and desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for internal temperature: 145°F for medium-rare, 160°F for medium.
