Pomegranate Chimichurri Lamb Chops

Pomegranate Chimichurri Lamb Chops

Bold, herbaceous, and beautifully balanced, these smoked lamb chops are finished with a vibrant pomegranate chimichurri that brings brightness, sweetness, and just the right touch of heat. Slow-smoked on the pellet grill and finished with a quick sear, this dish is elegant enough for a special occasion but simple enough for a weekend cook.

Prep

20 min (+30 min resting)

Cook time

~45 minutes

Serves

2–4

Steps

  1. Score the fat cap of the rack of lamb. Rub all sides with olive oil, then season generously with the salt, pepper & garlic blend, MSG (if using), and dried chimichurri seasoning.
  2. Place the seasoned lamb in the refrigerator and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  3. Prepare the pomegranate chimichurri by combining the chopped parsley, rosemary, oregano, garlic, pomegranate seeds, pomegranate molasses, olive oil, red wine vinegar, hot honey, salt, and pepper in a jar or bowl. Shake or stir well until fully combined. Set aside.
  4. Preheat your pellet grill to 275°F. Insert a probe thermometer into the thickest part of the lamb.
  5. Place the lamb fat-cap side down over the heat source and cook for about 45 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until the internal temperature reaches 120°F for rare or 125–130°F for medium-rare.
  6. Remove the lamb from the grill. Use a blow torch to render the fat and create a crust. If you don’t have a torch, let the lamb rest for 10 minutes, then broil on high for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  7. Slice the lamb chops and serve with the pomegranate chimichurri spooned over the top. Enjoy!
