Questions

What internal temperature should Grilled Lamb Chops reach?

For Grilled Lamb Chops, the target internal temperature is 145 F (about 65 C), given in step 4. A probe thermometer removes the guesswork.

How long should Grilled Lamb Chops marinate?

Step 3 reads: "Allow to marinate for at least 5 minutes while grill heats." Follow the time in step 3. Shorter still seasons the surface. Much longer is not better with acidic marinades, which turn the outside of meat or fish mushy.

How long does Grilled Lamb Chops keep?

Refrigerate what is left of Grilled Lamb Chops within two hours and eat it within three days. Reheat in a hot skillet rather than the microwave to keep the char.

Doubling on the grill just takes more surface area; keep the heat zones the same.
