Lamb chops are a type of meat cut which are made by cutting perpendicular to the spine, resulting in a single serving of meat with the bone still attached. Depending on the region where the lamb chops are cut from, parts of the ribs and vertebrae may still be attached. Lamb chops are a common springtime dish, when lambs are more plentiful, but year-round demand has led some farmers to breed their sheep on a staggered schedule to ensure a consistent supply of this tender, flavorful meat.
