How long does it take to grill a rack of lamb?

Sear the racks of lamb over high heat, or directly over the coals, meaty side down, until they are nicely browned, about 6 minutes. Turn the racks so that they are leaning against each other with the bones pointing up and grill until the meaty sides are nicely browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes.

How do you know when lamb is cooked?

Use your finger to estimate if roasted, grilled or broiled lamb is done to your liking. Press firmly on several sections of the lamb. If the meat gives easily but is firm and has cooked for the recommended length of time, it is probably medium-rare. A firmer texture and feel indicates more well-done meat.

How do you get the wild taste out of lamb?

Is Lamb bad for your heart?
