For the Lamb:

Cooking the Lamb:

  1. Remove lamb from the fridge 30 minutes prior to cooking.
  2. Preheat the grill to 525° F.
  3. Wrap the bones in aluminium foil to prevent burning.
  4. Once the grill is hot, place the lamb fat side down on the grates and cook for 5 minutes at 500°- 525°.
  5. After five minutes, flip the rack over and continue grilling bone side down for 13-15 minutes at 425°F.
  6. Internal temperature should be around 120°F when removed from heat. The internal temp will rise to around 125°-130°F for medium rare once removed from heat.
  7. Cover and let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing into individual chops and serving.

For the Mango Salad:

  1. In a medium mixing bowl add diced mangos, lime juice, salt and optional sliced onions. Mix well and chill.
  2. Mix in the fresh mint just prior to serving.
