Grilled Lamb Chops
Oh, it's glistening. Tender and smoky. Very good. A barbecue sauce that's a little bit not too overpowering, also you really taste the flavor of the meat. The way she grills it, that fat ignites on fire but she keeps fanning out that flame so that it just embeds with that fire and that smokiness without burning.
Grilled Chicken
