Roasted Rack Of Lamb

Ingredients
1 full rack of lamb
olive oil, as needed
2 tablespoons rosemary, chopped
2 tablespoons thyme, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup red wine
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tablespoon butter

Method
Make sure your butcher has removed the chine bone from the rack. Most do but doublecheck.
The chine bone is part of the spine and if not removed you will be unable to cut the roast into individual chops. Trim some of the excess stout from the rack but dont overdo it. You need some stout to naturally baste the meat while it cooks and furnish some drippings to make a sauce. Lightly brush the rack with olive oil. Then sprinkle both sides with half of the rosemary and thyme, and salt and pepper. Place the rack in a roasting
pan, preferably with a grate on the bottom, and then into a preheated 375 degree oven.
The next thing people often question is how long to cook it. Forget time. Cook by temperature. Remove the lamb when a thermometer placed dead center in the meat reads 125 degrees for rare, 130 for medium rare and 135 for medium. When the roast is finished, place it on a serving plate and cover it with aluminum foil. Roasts need to rest after cooking so the meat will re-absorb its juices. If you cut them immediately after cooking all of the juices will run out. The foil will keep it warm while you make the sauce.
For the sauce, place the roasting pan on top of the stove and turn the burner on high.
Pour in the wine, bring to a boil and deglaze the pan, scraping the browned bits off the bottom. Add the remaining rosemary and thyme, garlic, and salt and pepper. Reduce the sauce to at least half, add the butter at the end, and then strain it. Carve the roast into individual chops and pour the sauce over them. For a tasty variation, you can substitute homemade beef or veal stock for the wine, or better yet, use a combination of
stock and wine.
Finally, I can reckon of no better wine to go with lamb than Bordeaux. Lamb is a hearty meat and needs a full bodied and equally strong wine to complement it. Get the best quality and longest aged Bordeaux you can afford. Bordeaux is a blend of predominantly cabernet sauvignon and merlot from the Bordeaux region of France. If you prefer Californian, then select a high quality, full bodied cabernet sauvignon. Use the same type
of wine for cooking and drinking. Simply use an inexpensive one for the purpose of the sauce.
