Lamb Chops with Coffee Chile Rub

Lamb chops taste incredible with a balanced spice rub, some oil and flavor of a smokey, hot grill. There’s nothing like grilled or seared lamb chops. The balance of bitter, spicy and savory notes in this rub work wonderfully with the lamb.

A note about using whole dried chile peppers: Buy dried chile peppers and store in an airtight jar. Chop coarsely and grind in a spice mill or coffee grinder. Excess ground chile peppers can be stored for a week.
