About Lamb loin
Lamb loin is a section of the animal’s back between the ribs and the leg, sold as bone-in or boneless meat. It includes tender muscle and may retain a layer of fat; exact cuts and trimming vary by butcher.
The meat is usually roasted, grilled or pan-cooked, and has a mild, characteristic lamb flavour with a tender texture when not overcooked. A whole loin differs from chops or a prepared joint in bone, fat and edible-meat proportions.
