Is anyone familiar with Outback Steakhouse? I had four lamb chops for dinner, and the site says just the chops are nearly 600 calories. MFP says the same thing. Other entries for lamb chops say around 40 cal per chop... I know these are basted, but an extra 400 calories? They were awesome and I'm not even stressing about it, but it has me curious.

    Yes, restaurants make their food loaded with butter and all kinds of yummy things. Absolutely go with the 600 calories that the website says.

    I'm having a single (plain) lamb chop (125g) for dinner tonight and that is 340 calories. 4 tiny lamb chops would easily be 600 or over.

    The bone weight doesn't count... I highly doubt your lamb chop is 125g of meat.

    Yes I know the bone doesn't count. This is a 'chump' chop as opposed to a lamb cutlet and they have a lot of meat on them.
