Easy Boneless Leg of Lamb
This leg of lamb is cooked hot and fast, which prevents it from becoming gamey. It’s also packed with flavor.
Equipment
- A Smoker, or a Grill set up for smoking
Ingredients
- 5-6 lbs boneless leg of lamb (netted)
- ¼ cup avocado oil
- 2 tbsp coarse ground pepper
- 2 tbsp kosher salt
Spice Mixture
- ¼ cup dried thyme
- ¼ cup dried onion flakes
- ¼ cup dried garlic
Instructions
- Set up your grill with the JoeTisserie or other rotisserie attachment. Light the grill with your GrillBlazer Grill Gun or charcoal chimney and allow it to come up to a temperature of 400°F for your hot and fast cook.
- Rub the leg of lamb with avocado oil. Season generously with the salt and pepper mixture.
- Add a bit more avocado oil before you add the rest of the seasoning. Add the spice mixture to your tray, and roll the leg of lamb into the spice mixture, making sure it’s evenly coated. Don’t worry about adding too many spices…it’s a big piece of meat, so you don’t want to skimp on flavor!
- Put the leg of lamb on the rotisserie skewer, making sure it’s in the center. If you place it off-center, it will cook unevenly.
- If you find it difficult to work the skewer through the meat, you can use a long thin knife to make a hole first. Secure the rotisserie forks tightly into the meat and place the whole assembly in the grill. If you’re using a Thermoworks Signals and Billows to control the pit temperature, place the pit probe right in the dome to monitor the temperature (there’s no grate to attach to with a rotisserie!).
- Start the rotisserie and cook for 1-1 ½ hours. The internal temperature of the lamb should be 120°F.
- Once the leg of lamb is up to temperature, it’s time for the fun part – the searing. Grab your Su-VGun and sear the lamb while the rotisserie continues running. If you had any temperature probes in your meat, remember to remove them first!
- Remove any of the netting that didn’t burn off, carve, and enjoy!
