How to cook:
  1. Combine
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients.
  3. Marinade
  4. Place lamb in a large zip-top bag or glass baking dish. Pour in the marinade and toss to coat the lamb. Marinade at room temperature for 1 hour. Remove lamb from marinade and roll into a cylinder as tightly as possible and tie securely with butcher’s twine or rotisserie bands to help the lamb cook evenly and hold its shape while cooking.
  5. For the Grill (See below for electric rotisserie instructions):
  6. Pre-Heat
  7. Light one chimney full of charcoal. When all the charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and arrange the coals on either side of the charcoal grate.
  8. Prepare
  9. Place the foil pan between the two piles of coals. Run spit of the rotisserie through the middle of the lamb and secure ends with rotisserie forks. Heat the grill to 350 degrees F.Place on the grill, cover grill, and cook until your desired internal temperature.
  10. Roast
  11. Cook the lamb about 13-15 minutes per pound for medium-rare temperature or about 15-18 minutes for medium. Use the times as a guide, for more accurate temperatures use the internal temperature registers 125 degrees F for medium-rare or 130 degrees medium, or 145 degrees F for well-done on an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the roast.
  12. Remove roast to a cutting board and allow to rest for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing.
  13. For the Electric Rotisserie:
  14. prepare
  15. Position lamb onto the rotisserie spits through the center of the meat.
  16. Program
  17. If the temperature setting is programmable, set your rotisserie to 350 degrees F. Note: on the Ronco Rotisserie, there is no temperature setting, it's a set constant temperature already programmed for you.Place a small pan or aluminum tray below to catch any oily drips. For the Ronco, I remove the slatted broiler tray topper and foil line just the bottom broiler pan for easy cleanup.
  18. Roast
  19. Cook the lamb about 13-15 minutes per pound for medium-rare temperature or about 15-18 minutes for medium. For well done, use about 18-20 minutes per pound as your guide.Use the times as a guide, for more accurate temperatures use the internal temperature registers 125 degrees F for medium-rare or 130 degrees medium, or 145 degrees F for well-done on an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the roast.
  20. Rest

Cuisine: Southern
Number of ingredients: 18
Ingredients:
  • 1 (5- to- 7-pound) bone-in leg of lamb
  • 3/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh mint leaves
  • 120 milliliters (1/2 cup) olive oil
  • 80 milliliters (1/3 cup) vegetable stock, optional
  • 1 large shallot, coarsely chopped
  • 60 milliliters (1/4 cup) dry red wine
  • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
  • 5 large fresh sage leaves, coarsely chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, optional
  • 240 milliliters (1 cup) beef stock, or vegetable stock

  • Sodium: 901 mg
  • Sugar: 2 g
  • Fat: 79 g
  • Serving Size: 1 leg of lamb (6 to 8 servings)
  • Unsaturated Fat: 0 g
How to cook:
  1. Cutaway any excess fat from lamb leg. Rise and pat dry.
  2. Add the marinade ingredients in a food processor and process until well combined.
  3. Remove 60 milliliters (1/4 cup) and set aside.
  4. Place the lamb in a deep dish and apply the remaining marinade liberally all over the meat. You can inject the meat with some of the marinade, too, if desired. Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
  5. Putting a bone-in leg of lamb on a rotisserie spit can be a little challenging. A long thin knife or large metal skewer can be used to make a hole by starting at the bone end and working it through the thickest part of the leg. It is important to try to find the center to balance the leg of lamb on the rotisserie spit.
  6. Secure with the rotisserie tightly on both ends with the meat forks. It might be necessary to secure the leg with kitchen twine (see rotisserie cooking for more information), too.
  7. Place a drip pan on the grill and add several cups of water. This will prevent drippings from causing flare-ups.
  8. Place the rotisserie spit into the motor. Turn the motor on, making sure the lamb is properly centered, balanced, and able to turn freely.
  9. If your grill has a rotisserie burner, use that. If not, use one burner for indirect grilling. Heat the grill to medium (350 F to 375 F). The heat may rise above medium during cooking, but should not exceed medium-high (400 F to 475 F) heat.
  10. Grill lamb leg for about 20 to 30 minutes per pound. Baste frequently, alternating between the beef stock and the reserved marinade.
  11. Check for doneness by inserting a thermometer in the thickest part of the meat, avoiding the bone. Once the lamb has reached an internal temperature above 145 F/65 C (or higher if desired), remove from the heat, tent with foil, and rest for 10 to 12 minutes before serving.
