Can someone please suggest how to get rid of that awful smell when cooking lamb?

Lamp chops in particular. Can some sort of marinating rid the smell? Should I be basting it with anything while I'm grilling it? Much appreciated for your response!

    Yes it's very distinctive - I don't like it in the house so I grill on BBQ. I love the taste most of all meat. I don't know that marinading or basting will help. If you must cook in the kitchen, put the stove fan on.

    Light some of those Yankee candles! After cooking, put all of the leftovers away, get any lamb garbage out of the house and clean up whatever you cooked it on. The sooner you do those things, the sooner the smell goes.

    Well, when I am making venison I find beer as a base or basting with beer helps cut down the smell.(don't forget the mint jelly when your serve your lamb chops}

    Marinate your lamp chops with rosemary herbs. The meat has strong pungent smell on its own. So you need to use rich gravy as well.

    i'd attempt vinegar and/or baking soda. you could also attempt boiling a pot of water and then pouring the warm water down the drain. you could also flow to a house progression save and purchase a snake to attempt dislodging something that would nicely be stuck in there and causing the scent. i does no longer pour bleach or the different chemical down the drain in case it really is sewer gas. The bleach and the gases might want to integrate to make you ill, or worse yet, flow kaboom! call your landlord or a plumber if prevalent cleansing would not artwork.
