Barnsley Chop
A Barnsley chop is a double-loin chop cut across the saddle—two loin eyes with bone, a generous Yorkshire portion. It is thicker and more dramatic than a single loin chop, suited to grill or pan with a careful finish. Season well, sear hard, and finish to pink centres. Rest so juices settle in both eyes. One Barnsley often feeds a very hungry diner or two moderate ones. Pair with capers, anchovy butter, or mint sauce. Mind the fat: render without burning.
