I usually rub them with garlic and brush them with some mint sauce (not
jelly) and let them sit for an hour, then grill them, preferably on the
BBQ.

My brother kept telling me about a deal on lamb chops at a discount grocery
store around the corner near his house. He said there are close to 40
frozen chops in a bag for $10. I thought they looked small and too thin,
but what the heck.... for $10. I made up a marinade of lemon juice and
olive oil, garlic, salt pepper and oregano and let them soak for a few
hours then grilled them on the BBQ. We had quite a feast on just half the
bag.
