    Lamb LollipopsGrilled lamb chops are the best! They are very easy to make, quick to cook, and well, just plain sexy to have for dinner.  The rib bone serves as a utensil, so pick one up with your fingers, and bite into the succulent, savory meat.  Whether you make them for an intimate dinner for your husband, or tons of them for a crowd, there will never be leftovers.  Watch the video to see how easy they are to grill.
