BBQ Lamb Recipes – How to Grill a Lamb Leg



grilled lamb leg

Preparing the lamb leg well is key to a delicious grilled lamb leg. You will first need to coat the leg with kosher Salt and allow it to rest in the marinade for 12 to 24 hours. Then, remove the leg from the marinade and allow it to stand at room temperature for about half an hour before grilling. Once the leg is ready, turn it fat side-up and place it on a barbecue over medium or direct heat. Grill the leg for approximately 4 minutes each side until it's well-browned. Once the lamb has finished grilling, slice the lamb and drizzle the herb butter over it.

Once the lamb has reached the desired internal temperature, it should be allowed to rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. It's important that you continue to coat the lamb in its marinade throughout cooking. At 62 degrees Celsius, the meat should be done. The lamb should be removed from the refrigerator about an hour before cooking to ensure even cooking. Once the leg is at room temperature place it on a rack placed in a baking pan or oven. The lamb should be cooked until its surface is golden brown and there are no pink pieces.

For lamb legs that are being grilled on a gas grill: Turn the heat to high. Make sure you use all burners. After the initial browning, reduce the heat to low. Turn the lamb and cook on high for 4 minutes. Then, flip it over and cook for an additional 4 minutes. If you are using a charcoal grill to grill the lamb, move it to a side with a lower heat.

For a more flavorful grilled lamb leg, add whole fennel or cumin seeds. You must toast these seeds before grinding them, as they impart a richer flavor to the meat. For extra heat and pungency, you can add a lot of garlic or anchovy.

Grilling a lamb leg is an easy way to prepare a succulent and flavorful meal. This dish is quick and easy to make, and it can serve large groups of people. Once you've marinated the lamb leg, you are ready to grill it. Ensure the leg is at room temperature before grilling, because it will be cooked more evenly if it's warm. You can use charcoal or gas to get the best results. Once your lamb leg has been grilled, heat the ingredients.

Extra virgin olive oil is required for this dish. The oil will help to bring out the flavor of the other ingredients, and transfer them to your meat. Adding a slice of lemon will add a zesty flavor and help tenderize the meat. Next, slice the boneless lamb leg in 1-1/2-inch pieces. Finally, place the leg on a skewer. Then season it generously with salt & black pepper.
