Lamb chops
Rich and slightly gamey, with a more pronounced flavor than beef or pork, especially near the fat.
Lens analyzedLamb chops are small, individual portions cut from the rib, loin, or shoulder of a lamb, each typically including a bone. They're a quick-cooking cut, usually grilled, pan-seared, or broiled rather than slow-cooked.
Where it comes from
Lamb has been a central meat in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and South Asian cooking for centuries, and portioned chops became a familiar grocery-store cut in North America as lamb gained wider popularity beyond those culinary traditions.
Buying it
Check whether chops are labeled rib, loin, or shoulder, since rib and loin chops are more tender and cook faster, while shoulder chops are tougher and better suited to slower cooking.
Storing it
Refrigerate raw lamb chops and cook within a couple of days, or freeze them for longer storage.
Keeps about 4 days in the fridge.
