A rack of lamb is one of my absolute favorite cuts of meat. It is super tender, juicy, and flavorful part of lamb, that is also very easy to cook.

A rack of lamb is a cut of lamb that includes the rib bones, typically with the meat still attached to them. It is a relatively lean cut of meat, but still has a rich and flavorful taste. The rib bones are usually frenched, meaning that the meat and fat have been trimmed away to create a more visually pleasing appearance. A rack of lamb typically contains 8-12 ribs and is usually cooked by roasting, grilling or pan searing.

My favorite fool proof way to make it is by roasting. This method uses flavorful aromatics to coat the lamb rack, and with the use of internal probe thermometer, you cannot mess it up!

It is quick and easy to cook, give it a try and let me know your thoughts!
