Smoked Leg of Lamb

Smoked Leg of lamb

Due to work commitments there has been very little BBQ action happening recently as weekends have been spent writing. This finally got done in early June, so the first weekend afterwards it was time to make up for last time and try out something new. Today were are going to try out a smoked leg of lamb. Back in the UK, lamb is much more common than it is in the US but in the UK you don’t get a chance to do BBQ very often (at least not in the dry).  So I was keen to try a smoked version of something I don’t get very often and kinda miss. Read on to see how it turned out.

Lamb Shoulder with Black Sauce

With predicted temperatures into the high 70’s F today in our bit of Southern California, winter seems to be over so why not get the BBQ out of the shed and fire it up ? If even more of excuse were needed, this weekend is the Superbowl and all across the country people will be firing up grills and smokers and cooking barbecue. Today we will be doing a somewhat less common meat for this country (it is far more popular in my original home country of Britain) and cooking lamb shoulder.
