AMAZING. Best lamb chops I have ever had. I'm usually not a huge fan of Gorgonzola cheese, but having that combination really cut the strong flavor. I actually cooked the chops on a grill pan inside, then threw it under the broiler to get the cheese nice and melted down. I was going to grill it, but I ran out of gas. It was a good thing though, because it is very difficult to keep the cheese mixture on the chops. By cooking in a grill pan, I was able to save all of the deliciousness that would have fallen off on the grill.

This recipe was delicious. The topping was so tasty and the chops turned out so tender. I will definitely make this again.

I grilled these lamb chops for Memorial Day and my family absolutely loved them. They were soooo tender and seasoned just right. Even the kids loved them!! However, it does take a little longer than 4-5 minutes to cook , but they were worth the extra time!! Great recipe Big Daddy!!!
