R/T 1250 rack of lamb, reverse sear

[SmokinAl]

So we were looking thru the freezer a couple of days ago & found a WFF Frenched rack of lamb. I guess I must have bought it a couple of years ago and just forgot about it. So I found this marinade recipe:

I mixed it up, and spread it all over the lamb. (I decided not to do any trimming, even though the recipe said to trim off all the fat & silver skin). Then into a vac bag & refrigerate for 24 hours.

Next day, out of the bag, cross hatch the fat, and add some compound butter to the top.

Next stop, R/T

Have the R/T set to 180.

It took about 2 1/2 hours to reach an IT of 125, at that point I took it out & got the Genesis going for the sear part.
In the meantime, Judy was making garlic bread & garlic mashed potato’s. Here she is resting for a few while the Genesis gets up to temp.

Love these sear grates!

Plenty of flair-ups even with the sear grates on.

Had to put a bit of a sear on the bone side too.

This roast just looks fantastic, BTW (never did one of these before, so I’m flying by the seat of my pants).

8 bone roast cut in half (2 night’s meals).

Dinnertime! Lamb, garlic bread, garlic mash, and I like a bit of lemon on my lamb.

This was a very easy to prepare & simple meal. This was the first rack of lamb that I have ever had, and I must have got a good deal on it because I was going to order a couple more until I saw the price. Honestly this was one of the best meals I have made in a long time. The lamb just melted in your mouth, it was more tender than a filet, but had the flavor of a ribeye. Best part is we get to do it again tonight.
Thanks for stopping by!

Wow Al! That is a thing of beauty. Taters and bread looks tasty. My Frizor App showed a rack but I never could find it. Dont remember cooking it. Maybe it will show up someday.

Very nice cook Al. It’s been a little bit since I’ve done a rack of lamb, our Costco has them for a pretty good price……..we like ours with a balsamic glaze……

Al, that plate is nothing short of magnificent!! The lamb is perfectly cooked and looks truly stunning. A testament to a master chef at work. This has me thinking I may need to move my arrival for the S. FL gathering up a day and come to your house for dinner on Wednesday before the event
