Barbecued marinated butterflied lamb leg

**Boxerworld** · #1 18th July 2009, 11:16 AM

A very easy way to cook lamb if like me you do not want to spend too much time cooking.

Ingredients:

butterflied lamb leg

teriyaki sauce. Mine was a Kikkoman Teriyaki marinade 250ml bottle

some garlic

Marinate well the lamb in a bowl full of teriyaki marinade with some bits of garlic. I marinated it for about 12 hours. Cook it on the BBQ and that's all

I have yet to have lamb. I'm not sure why, I just can't bring myself to eat it. I think I need to give it a try, I've heard so many good things about it. Does the taste compare to any other meat?

Not really

It is closer to beef, most closely veal, than to anything else I can think of (e.g. chicken, fish, duck, venison...), but still quite a different taste. It can be a very tender meat

Lamb is good. The only thing I would avoid is lamb's fry

Olly I love a BBQ Butterflied lamb leg. I haven't had one in so long.

I always used to marinate it in Mint sauce. It's really really good.

I'll definately be sure to do that! I KNOW I couldn't bring myself to eat that!

We are going to Vegas in a couple of weeks and are eating at Emeril's restaurant there. I might give it a try.

I ate a lamb shank with mint sauce in a pub

in Newquay, Cornwall. A little surprising at the beginning but it was quite good.

Haven't you heard the saying, "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas"?

Just kidding! I'll try to get some photos!

I made this for my Family last night - they loved it. They all favour Lamb over any other meat though, so they were all biased to start. I can't tell you how it tasted as I do not eat meat, but it smelt awesome. DH would have LOVED some mint sauce on the side though!!

Thanks for the recipe.

RaShann: I am sure you will like lamb meat. Just swallow quick

Just kidding!

Sarah: I am glad your family liked it

How long have you been a vegetarian? I was tempted to try an Indian vegetarian restaurant not long ago but did not go.

I just looked at the menu for Delmonico's in Vegas. They have Roasted Rack of Colorado Lamb With Fresh Herb Popover and Truffle Sauce. Sounds interesting.
