  • Boneless Leg from Costco

    Was at Costco Saturday, and found boneless leg of lamb for $4.99 per pound. That's cheaper than beef! Decided I needed to give it a try. Found a good recipe on another forum. First, I salted the meat all over with 1/2 tsp kosher salt per pound and then tied the leg into a log shape to facilitate more even cooking. I placed it uncovered in the fridge for about 4 hours. I then made up a rub of:

    2 tablespoon dried rosemary leaves, broken or crushed a bit by hand
    1 tablespoon whole mustard seeds
    1 tablespoon ground black pepper
    1 tablespoon paprika
    1 teaspoon ground bay leaves
    10 cloves of garlic, peeled and pressed, or minced

    I made this into a paste with olive oil. Just before I put it on the grill I rubbed it in and gave the roll a good coating. I cooked indirect until the internal temp was 115. I then moved it over very hot coals and seared until the internal temp was around 120 or so. I rested it for about an hour. Man this was good and Mrs Snarlingiron really loved it too. Will definitely do again

    Rolled, Tied and rubbed:

      Similar to the “Redneck Rotiss” lamb I did for the 4th party. Used some thyme as well, altho no bay. Bay..interesting.

      Looks great!

          Looks very good

          I cook a lot of lamb and Cabrito and I've used thyme and rosemary and I've used sage a few times, but I've never used bay leaves on lamb. Might have to give it a try.

                      Great post, been eying some lamb for a while and it is cheaper in Chi town as well. I just spotted it at Rd last week and put it on my next time list.

                        It's been forever & a day since I've had lamb. I gotta change that.
