LChops & Tabbouleh

Lamb is way up there on my list of favorite meats, it's always right on time.

Marinade in OO, garlic, parsley, rosemary, salt, pepper then on they went:


A few got a little crispy from flareups but overall it turned out well:


Nice little quinoa tabbouleh to go with it:


Not pictured: grilled asparagus and some tzatziki my wife made
Also not pictured: the tasty suds consumed during prep and the cheap boxed rose consumed with the meal

Question: 
I bought the full rack then seperated, it was a little tough getting the knife through (enough so that I put away my shun and pulled a lesser knife), what gives?

Killer meal, I love lamb and you did it justice, I do the same with buying the whole rack

I like to break the whole rack down to 4 sets of 2 chops for grilling - easier to hit the medium-rare while getting an outer char.  Once done, I separate them for serving.  Great summertime dinner, geezy.

I am not a fan but that looks delicious!

If I remember correctly, there can be a bone that runs the length of the rack on the end opposite the rib bones sometimes, I think it depends on the butchering job.  I’ve always been able to cut through that pretty easily with the heel of the knife.  Is this what you ran into?

+1 for what @JohnEggGio says re cutting into double chops.

Looks killer, makes me want to grill some up this weekend.
