Rotisserie Leg of Lamb
Rotiserrie Leg of Lamb cooked on your Big Green Egg, what's not to love. The lamb will self-baste as it spins.We kept this simple and traditional and studded with some rosemary and garlic. Controversially, we also used a tin of anchovy fillets. We love the saltiness of the anchovies; you can't taste the fish. It's optional but give it a go, you'll be surprised!We served this with Minty Peas and Pancetta, and Marry Me Butterbeans cooked by Grace. Looking for some inspiration for other side dishes see our Vegetables section.

Method
- Set up your Egg for a direct cook at 180°C, ready to use your rotisserie.
- Brush your lamb with a bit of oil, season with salt and pepper and stud with rosemary, garlic and anchovies, optional.
- Place your lamb onto your spit and try and position it so it is weighted as evenly as possible.
- Make sure the thumb screws are securely tightened on the spit forks, you don't want your spit spinning and your lamb hanging.
- Remove you lamb from the rotisserie when the internal temp is about 5°c below, where you want it to be.
- We like to serve lamb medium-rare (57°C) so we will remove the lamb when it is 52°C.
- Try to rest your lamb for at least 15 minutes before carving. Wrap it in good quality foil.
- We served with two sides; Minty Peas and Pancetta and Marry Me Butter Beans. You could also serve as part of a traditional roast dinner.
