How To make Rack Of Lamb with Bacon Vinaigrette
2 Trimmed lamb racks
- 8 ribs each 1/4 c Olive oil
2/3 c Red wine vinegar
1 ts Minced garlic
1 ts Ground coriander
1 ts Kosher salt
1 ts Ground black pepper
1/2 lb Bacon; cut in 3/4-in pieces
1/2 c Low-sodium chicken broth
1 tb Dijon mustard
HAVE YOUR BUTCHER trIM the racks, exposing the bone. Remove the outer layer of fat and discard. Lay the racks in a glass dish and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon oil, 1/4 cup vinegar, garlic, coriander, salt and pepper. Cover and let stand at room temperature for 1 hour. Preheat oven to 450F. Pat racks dry and place fat side up in a roasting pan. Place in oven for 10 minutes, reduce heat to 350F and continue to roast another 15 minutes for medium rare, 18 to 20 minutes for medium. Meanwhile, place the bacon in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat and cook 3 to 4 minutes. Set the skillet
aside. Remove the lamb from the oven and pour out the fat. Add chicken broth and stir to dissolve and scrape up any brown bits that have stuck to the bottom of the pan. Pour liquid into the skillet with the bacon. When it's time to put dinner on the table, cut the racks into chops and arrange them on a platter. Pour any juices from the lamb into the saucepan. Place the skillet over high heat, bring to a boil and add the mustard. Remove from the heat, beat in the rest of the oil and pour the sauce over the lamb.

Ingredients
Big splash of olive oil
2 rack lamb, frenched and capped by your butcher
¼ cup (or so) of Dijon mustard
½ cup fresh bread crumbs
2 clove garlic, finely minced
1 Tbsp any fresh herb, minced
1 Tbsp olive oil
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 375ºF and turn on your convection fan if you have one.
2. Add a splash of olive oil to a skillet over medium high heat. Season the lamb heavily with salt and pepper. Sear the exposed lamb flesh until it’s golden brown and crusty on all sides. Remove from the pan and rest. In a small bowl mix together the breadcrumbs, garlic, herb and olive oil until a crumbly paste forms. Thoroughly brush the presentation surface of each seared rack of lamb with mustard, then roll and pat with the breadcrumb mixture.
3. Transfer the now-crusted lamb racks to a roasting pan and place in the preheated oven. For medium rare roast to an internal temperature of 130ºF measured with an inexpensive meat thermometer, 20-30 minutes. Serve and share.

I start this Grilled Rack of Lamb recipe off by buying a couple of racks of lamb weighing about 1.5lbs each from Costco. The lamb loins are mostly trimmed (you want some fat for flavor) and the bones are frenched (meat removed about 2”) so there’s not really any prep to do with the meat.
Remove each rack of lamb from cryovac packaging and pat any excess moisture off with paper towel. Lay the racks of lamb out on a work surface or large platter and generously season the outside with Killer Hogs AP rub; you can substitute Kosher Salt and Cracked Black Pepper here.
The next layer of flavor I want to get on the lamb is a sort of “wet rub”. It’s a combination of fresh herbs, garlic & shallot with a touch of mustard and olive to balance it out.
Rack Of Lamb Wet Herb Rub Recipe
- 1 Cup Italian Flat Leaf Parsley
- 2 TBS Fresh Rosemary
- 1 TBS Fresh Thyme
- 5 cloves Garlic
- 1 Shallot
- 2 TBS Dijon Mustard
- ¼ Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Pinch of Salt and Black Pepper to taste
Chop the parsley, rosemary, and thyme and add to the bowl of a food processor. Peel the garlic cloves and smash with the side of your chef knife; roughly chop the shallot and add both to the chopped herbs.
Pulse the food processor a few times and then add the Dijon Mustard. Continue processing the mixture for 1-2 minutes while slowly adding the olive oil. More oil can be added until the mixture resembles a paste.
This wet rub can be made a day ahead of time. Keep it in the refrigerator to develop even more flavor.
Spread the wet rub over both sides of the rack of lamb and let it hang out on the counter for 1 hour.
For this cook I’m using my Big Green Egg first set up for direct grilling at 450⁰; and then I’m going to switch it over to indirect heat by adding the plate setter and reducing the temperature to 375⁰F.
You can do this on any grill just create a two zone fire running the same temps. Also I’m adding just one chunk of cherry wood to the coals to give a mild, sweet smoke. Anything strong will over power the flavor of the lamb.
After an hour of resting/marinating, the rack of lamb is ready for the grill. Lay each rack of lamb on the cooking grate directly over the hot coals and sear each side for 4 minutes.
Remove the rack of lamb from the grill and set a side just for a minute while switching the Big Green Egg over to indirect cooking.
Once the grill is set up and the temps have dropped to 375⁰F (should only take a 3-4 minutes), place the rack of lamb back on the cooking grate standing up on its’ edge bones pointing up.
Interlock each bone so the racks support one another. (if you’re only cooking one rack just place it meat side up on the rack).
Before closing the lid insert a meat probe (I use a Themoworks Chef Alarm) into the center of one of the racks and set the temperature alarm for 128⁰F. Continue cooking the lamb until the alarm sounds which will be somewhere around 20-30 minutes.
Once the alarm sounds remove both racks from the cooker and allow them to rest for a minimum of 10 minutes sitting on the cutting board. It makes a really cool presentation to serve these just as you cooked them-bones interlocked; I promise your guests will be impressed!
