Chump

Lamb chump is the rump end between loin and leg—meaty, versatile, sold as chump chops or a small roast. It sits at a crossroads of muscles: more flavour than pure loin, more tenderness than shank when not overcooked. Grill chump chops over medium heat; roast whole chump tied for even shape. Cubes suit kebabs. Trim excess surface fat if strong-tasting. A practical midweek cut that still feels special with rosemary and garlic.
