What's Barnsley chop

Barnsley chop is prepared from the saddle of lamb and is essentially a slice from the saddle roast. It is effectively a double loin chop.

How Can I Cook It?

A Barnsley chop is best grilled, griddled or pan-fried - it is quite large, so is perfect for those with a hearty appetite. Cook them for 6-8 minutes each side depending on thickness.

What Else Could I Use?

For a smaller but still meaty chop, try valentine steaks, loin chops or chump steaks or chops.
