1. While you prepare the grill, rub salt on both sides of the lamb chops and let them lay at room temperature for 40 minutes.
2. One chimney full of charcoal should be lit afterwards. Pour out coals and arrange them on one side of the charcoal grate once all of the charcoal is lit and they are all covered with gray ash.
3. Place the cooking grate on the grill, cover it, and let it heat up for 5 minutes.
4. Alternatively, you can turn half of a gas grill’s burners to a high setting. Let the gas grill heat up  for 10 minutes with the lid on. The grilling grate should then be cleaned and oiled.
5. Afterwards, rub the lamb chops with some olive oil and black pepper before placing them on the cold side of the grill.
6. Cook the lamb chops until an instant-read thermometer placed into the thickest part of the chops registers 110°F (43°C) for rare lamb chops or 120°F (49°C) for medium-rare lamb chops. Make sure that the lamb chops are covered on the grill.
7. Keep cooking the lamb chops for 2 to 3 minutes more on each side on the hot side of the grill, or until an instant-read thermometer placed into the thickest portion of the chops reads 120°F for rare lamb chops or 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare lamb chops.
8. Place the chops on a serving plate and set them aside for 10 minutes. Serve them right away and enjoy.
