    Lamb backstrap - Caveman style

    Hey pit masters! I kinda like cooking 'old school', so I felt it was time for some caveman grilling.

    So I filled my BGE with some of my favorite charcoal (known as Cuba charcoal, from the Marabu tree). I lit the whole coal bed, and once I had some glowing embers I cooked some lamb backstrap right in the fire. Well, there were no flames, just a nice glowing coal bed, but still.

    The lamb was dry brined in the morning, and I grilled it in the afternoon. Once they were done I applied some black pepper. They have a real nice char, and tasted wonderful.

    This was a fast cook, 8-10 minutes, since the meat is rather thin (about 1 inch). I'm gonna do a little more grilling like this, with veggies too. I really enjoyed the grilled (as opposed to smoked) flavor, brought back childhoodl memories.


    The coals are ready

    Just be sure ya don't let the lamb get too charred. I'd hate to see you trying to take a bite out of the charcoal.

        What's the English translation for the Swedish word 'Backstrap'? Loin?
        (Don't blame me, I'm married to a Norwegian. Sorry.)

          I was going to ask the same question....It does look like a loin
          Sadly no one in this house likes lamb but me so I very rarely buy it

          Yes, it’s the loin. The muscle is part of the erector spinae group.
