Lamb Leg Chops are generous, meaty portions cut across the lamb leg. They have a firmer texture than loin chops and a more pronounced lamb character.
Their substantial size makes them suitable for grilling and pan-searing, while they can also be braised or incorporated into slower-cooked dishes.
More Info
Standard portions contain two chops weighing approximately 250–300g each. As this is a naturally portioned product, individual weights may vary by approximately 25–50g.
Leg chops are generally leaner and slightly firmer than loin chops. Their texture responds well to marinades and careful cooking.
This product is imported frozen and handled under carefully controlled cold-chain conditions.

Products supplied defrosted should be kept refrigerated and should not be refrozen while raw.
Cooking Tips
- Pan-searing: Sear in a hot pan to develop good colour, then reduce the heat or finish in the oven if the chops are particularly thick.
- Grilling or braaiing: Cook over medium-high heat, moving thicker chops to gentler heat as required.
- Roasting: Season and roast with garlic, rosemary and vegetables until cooked to your preference.
- Braising: Brown first, then cook gently in stock, wine, tomatoes or another sauce until tender.
- Marinating: Olive oil, lemon, garlic, rosemary, thyme and cumin all work particularly well.
- Resting: Allow the chops to rest before serving.
Serve with roasted potatoes, couscous, grilled vegetables, rice, salad or a herb-based sauce.
Storage
Keep frozen until required and defrost thoroughly in the refrigerator before cooking.
