Ingredients
  • 1 butterflied leg of lamb (around 5 lbs)
  • 2/3 cup lemon juice
  • 2 minced garlic cloves
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 section of sliced ginger root (1/2 inch)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon grounded black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt (vary on preferred taste)

Directions
  1. 1. Mix together the minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, and salt and ground black pepper in a bowl.
  2. Put the leg of lamb in a flat and shallow container and then pour the sauce mixture evenly over the lamb.
  3. The lamb should now be lightly coated and resting in the marinade sauce.
  4. Leave in the refrigerator to marinate, covered, for 8 hrs or overnight.
  5. 2. Preheat a grill to medium heat.
  6. Drain the marinade from your shallow container into a saucepan and bring to a boil on the stove.
  7. Brush a small amount of oil on the grate of the grill.
  8. Place the lamb on upper grate of grill so as to cook using indirect heat, and let it grill for 40 to 50 minutes, or until it reaches the minimum internal temperature of about 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

  10. Allow meat to cool slightly, slice to desired serving size, and then cover with warm marinade sauce to make ready for serving.

No you can't go wrong with lamb. I like the soy sauce and I guess that the sugar provides a glaze.


I love lamb meat.
This would be really nice with some curry and chili's.


I cooked it 2 days ago for my out-of-town guests, and we all loved it! I cooked it on a Green Egg grill. It's just perfect!


I wish i had my own Lamb Farm...lol
