Directions

  1. Adjust oven rack to middle position, place your Knob Creek x Smithey 18x Seasoned Cast Iron Skillet on rack, and heat oven to 500 degrees.
  2. Season the lamb chops with salt and pepper.
  3. When the oven reaches 500 degrees, remove the skillet from the oven using kitchen towels or potholders and place over medium-high heat. Turn off the oven.
  4. While being careful of the hot skillet handle, add oil and heat until just smoking.
  5. Place the lamb chops in the skillet and let them cook without moving them, until lightly browned on the first side (about 2 minutes). Then, flip the lamb chops and continue to cook until lightly browned on the second side (about 2 minutes).
  6. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and flip the chops back to the first side. Cook until well browned (about 3 to 5 minutes), flipping chops halfway through cooking and meat registers between 120-125°F (for medium-rare).
  7. Transfer chops to a serving platter and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
  8. While the lamb chops are resting, return to the stove and turn the heat to high.
  9. Deglaze the skillet with the Knob Creek® 9 Year Old Bourbon.
  10. Add the water, Worcestershire sauce, and vinegar. Bring to a boil.
  11. Reduce the heat to a simmer. Add the remaining ingredients, whisk, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  12. Lastly, spoon the Knob Creek® Black BBQ Sauce over the lamb chops.
  13. Suggest serving with a side of crushed cucumber salad, fresh mint, and toasted chopped peanuts.
