  11. Place the rack on high direct medium-heat, allowing them to sear about 4-5 minutes per side.
  12. Reduce the heat to medium and move the racks of lamb to a cooler part of the grill (the top rack on the Angus grill.)
  13. Cook for an additional 20 minutes, covered with the lid, until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees, for rare meat.
