Lamb Lollipops

Steven made lamb lollipops last night. I'm not a big fan on lamb, but, oh man, these were GOOD. They are little lamb chops that you hold like a lollipop and eat. Wow. They were so juicy and delicious. We had them with cous cous and tomato/mozzarella/pesto. It was pure heaven.

My mother likes lamb and she would occasionally make it for us as kids. Our family was one where you ate what was for dinner. Period. The only exception was that my mother knew I didn't like fish, so on those nights I got to eat something else. But when she made lamb I always thought it was a little bitter (only when I was older would I learn the term "gamey"). And the whole mint jelly thing just grosses me out.

I was hesitant to try last night's lamb, but was I ever surprised! And Steven said the meat was around $13, which is about what we'd spend on a nice steak for us.

I didn't watch Steven prepare the lamb, but I don't think it was very hard, so if you're in the mood for something different, give these a try. They're pretty tasty!
