Lamb leg

[natej]

Evening all

Sunday afternoon rolled around and time for some Lamb! Grabbed a leg from the grocery store for $4.50 per lb

Rubbed up with some SPOG, rosemary & thyme and smoked at 250 over mesquite for a couple hours till it reached an internal temp of 145 and rested for 20mins. Mesquite is a strong flavor yes but I find its earthiness goes really well with lamb

Heres a few pics

Looks great there is not much better than smoked lamb. I have to wait for a couple of weeks before I can do another one. I have 3 lambs going in to get harvested on January 9 still looking for new ideas on what to do with the trim . We do brats , ground, and gyro meat.

Looks GREAT!!!. Beautifully done.
What was the starting weight of the leg?? Couldn't have weighed too much if it inly took 2 hours at 250 degrees.
