1In your smoker, build up heat until you reach an even 225F.
2In a bowl, mix all the ingredients for the Herb Butter Paste thoroughly.
3Rub rack of lamb with olive oil and season with salt & pepper. On the side without bones, rub the Herb Butter Paste evenly.
4Place lamb in smoker at 225F for 2-2.5 hours or until the internal temperature is at 135F (medium-rare). NOTE: About 15 minutes before pulling the lamb out, start a hot fire in order to sear the outside layers.

I recommend using hickory or apple wood for subtle smoky flavor
