BBQ lamb chops are a proper British summer treat — a hot grill, browned fat, and a pink centre that tastes of charcoal. Lamb Chops 900g-1.1kg (Frozen) is the family frozen pack; Barnsley Lamb Chops 450-600g is the double-chop plate; Minted Lamb Chops 1kg (Frozen) brings the mint already on. Shop them in lamb chops and BBQ.
BBQ method
Thaw overnight in the fridge if frozen. Pat dry, oil lightly, and season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of rosemary — go easy on salt with minted packs. Set the BBQ for medium direct heat — not a roaring fire, or the outside burns before the middle cooks. Grill 4 to 6 minutes a side for a typical chop, aiming for a pink centre around 58–62°C after a short rest, or nearer 65°C for medium. Barnsley chops are thicker — start checking from 5 to 7 minutes a side and probe near the bone. Stand the fat edge toward the heat for 20 to 30 seconds so it renders sticky. Rest three minutes. One layer only; stacked chops steam. Watch minted glazes — sugar browns fast, so move to a cooler zone if the crust is catching early.
Grill, pan and oven backup
No BBQ: medium grill 4 to 6 minutes a side, hot pan 3 to 5 minutes a side, or oven 200°C for 12 to 18 minutes. Mint sauce or a sharp salad finishes the plate. Browse lamb chops for pack sizes, and BBQ when you want chops and sausages on the same fire.
What to serve
New potatoes, greens, and mint sauce, or couscous and a tomato salad. Leftover chop meat is excellent cold in a sandwich with mint jelly. Freeze spare packs flat; thaw fully so the fat renders cleanly.
Times above are a guide for home ovens, air fryers and pans — always trust a probe over the clock, and rest meat before you carve so the juices stay in the slice, not on the board. British packs vary a little in thickness, so start checking a few minutes early the first time you cook a new size.
Write your own fridge note the first time you cook a new pack size — home ovens and pans vary, and a two-minute early check beats dry meat. Rest on a warm plate, not a cold board, so the juices stay put when you carve or plate up.
