Goat or Lamb T-Bone Chops and Grilled Potatoes

Delicious grilled lamb t-bone chops are perfect for outdoor grilling season. In this recipe Chef Ben Spangler griddles lamb loin chops and serves them with a cake of potatoes and roasted tomatoes. Read on and we’ll show you how it’s done.

The lamb t-bone chops are simply seasoned with salt and pepper and griddled on a flat top, gas, or wood fire grill. To accompany the chops, chef demonstrates a grilled cake of potatoes and artichokes you can make alongside. If you don’t feel like going through the work to make the potato-artichoke cake, you can always grill your favorite vegetables alongside the lamb chops.

One important tip for cooking lamb loin chops is to try and render the fat cap to make it crisp. You can do this by holding the chops with a pair of tongs while they cook, or balancing the chops against each other.

Lamb Loin Chops (T-bones) vs Rib Chops

As far as goat chops go, there are basically two different types: the loin chops (sometimes call T-bones) or rib chops cut from the rack. Either of these will work for this recipe. Both loin and rib lamb chops have little if any marbling, especially our delicious grass-fed ones, so they will cook fast, but luckily, nature provides a ring of fat along the outside edge will protect the meat and can be trimmed after cooking if it is unwanted.

How to Make Grilled Lamb T-Bone Chops

Simply remove the lamb chops from the package, pat dry and season with salt and pepper. Lightly rub them with oil before grilling to 140 F internal temperature for medium, which is what most people will prefer.

The Potato Cake

The potato and artichoke cake is optional. It’s the perfect kind of thing to make with the lamb fat that comes off the chops if you cook them in a skillet outside.
