Have a photo of Lamb Loin Chop from your butcher? and we'll credit you.
The loin is the section of the back between the rack and the chump, and is the most tender primal on the lamb. It is sold as loin chops, which contain both the loin and a small piece of tenderloin separated by the backbone, making a T-shaped chop. The whole loin on the bone is called a saddle — one of the grandest roasting joints in classical British and French cookery. Boned, the loin produces noisettes, small round medallions tied with fat.
