Recipe

Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 25 mins Ready Time: 1 hr 40 mins


• combine ketchup, soy sauce, sugar, strawberry jelly, horseradish, tomato paste, butter, oil, vinegar, salt, black pepper, and paprika together in a saucepan over low heat; cook and stir until marinade is smooth, about 5 minutes.
• place lamb chops in a bowl; add marinade. marinate lamb chops in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• remove lamb chops from marinade, reserving the extra marinade.
• light charcoals in the grill and add several bags of fall leaves throughout getting the coals ready for grilling.
• place lamb chops on the grill when the coals are about halfway ashed over. baste lamb chops with marinade and flip lamb chops. cover grill with lid so smoke from the leaves can permeate the lamb chops. cook until lamb is slightly pink in the center, 20 to 30 minutes. an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees f (63 degrees c).
