Prepare the grill by heating to high heat (approximately 400˚F.)
Place the lamb on the grill grates over direct heat with the bone side up.
Grill the lamb with the lid open for 4-5 minutes. Flip the rack over and cook on the opposite side for an additional 4-5 minutes.
Turn the grill to low or move the rack to an area of indirect heat. Close the lid and continue cooking for an additional 10-15 minutes depending on the size of your lamb.

Serve the lamb with a dipping sauce like Tzatziki or Garlic Aioli.
A savory marinade is also a good way to impart flavor to your lamb.
