Grilled lamb chops with mustard rub? So elegant and so easy! This recipe is one of
my husband’s absolute favorites. My sons love it, too! In fact, I’ve been doubling the recipe ever since my oldest entered adolescence and his never-ending appetite kicked in. Before long, I’ll be tripling it.
When you make this recipe, you’ll be following in the footsteps of the iconic Julia Child and her leg of lamb recipe, Gigot à la Moutarde. Sounds très fancy, right? Here’s a secret—Julia used soy sauce in her marinade. She knew it was just the kick needed to elevate this dish from bien to fantastique! I love to serve this recipe to welcome spring. Brush the March snow off your grill, and bon appétit!

Yummy! I love lamb chops, but have never made them myself. So this will be a great addition to our summer grill recipes.
I read Superfudge to my children when they were four, and ever since, my son has “had” to have lambchops. Thank you for the new recipe!
This looks so sophisticated! I’ve never tried lamb.
