Suckling Lamb Cobbles (Blocks)
Ternasquico is just the way people in Aragón say the word "Ternasco", which is suckling lamb. Adoquines would be cobblestones, cobbles, blocks...you name it, I'm guessing it's a thick portion of the meat...
Some of the terms they use on this list are not very inviting, in my opinion (pan de cristal?)

Morsels of Ternasquico lamb
Adoquines are small square bricks or cobblestones. Since this is a regional aperitivo, this word is used to mean 'bites' or 'morsels' of something tasty that you pop into your mouth...in this case, the suckling lamb of Ternasco of Aragon. I also wonder what 'pan de cristal' is....

Smaller bites because it is not the main course: if it were, then I would use 'cutlet' or 'loin chop'.
