Leg of Lamb. Deboned, butterflied, seared, and roasted.
>>21685901Bought and froze this a month or so ago. Now it's time to cook it up.
I seasoned this and left it out a couple of hours ago. I really should have scored the fat then while it was firm.
But my knife is sharp and I got the job done.
The pan is very hot and oiled.
To save our troll some time, I'm poor and I don't know how to cook.
This piece is done. I'm going to eat it as a preview.
So it's got a good sear now on the top and bottom.
Onions in the lamb fat.
Pounded
Peeled
Rooted and split.
Some red wine. Not much because this won't roast long.
I'm not going to cover this and I don't want all that stuff to dry out, so I should have put it under the roast.
Easily fixed.
That's better.
That's it for now.
Temped at 120f so I'm going to put it back in the turned off oven to sit a few more minutes.
Good cooking bro
That escalated quickly. I don't like roasts at medium rare or lower, but there's not going to be much pink left. I knew the rest was done when the thickest part was rare, so I should not have given it any extra time. The hole poked by the thermometer allows for faster cooking and loss of juices anyway. There's really no way to fuck this up though. It's a nice cut of meat with plenty of fat. Even if it was well done it wouldn't be dried out unless you really forgot about it for a couple hours.
I'm pleased with this.
I've got a bite with everything on it.

Delicious. Should get a few nice meals out of it. Next time I'll be more mindful of the butterfly. I misjudged the thickest area which was folded over itself. It's just a bit more done than I'd have hoped. But as I posted before, you really can't screw it up.$10/lb was a good deal for this too. Almost all cuts of beef are more than that usually. I try to never pay more than $10/lb for anything but some seafoods and cheeses.
looks good chief
>>21685994Thank you for the blessing.

Now I'm hungry.

This is so tasty. Everything came together so well.
>>21686463There's enough to share, come on by and I'll heat you up a plate.
>>21685901I prefer my lamb unnatural!

>>21685905>Unit price: 9.99What a steal!
>>21686549I know. That's usually about the cheapest beef prices I can get, and it's not that organic kind either. It seems like something that should be $15/lb or more just based on the "natural" labeling, which usually automatically makes meat 50% more expensive. Hell, I think the last time I looked at a rack of lamb at the store it was $19/lb, and that was a few years ago.It's like they priced this lamb as if it were Ham'b.
>>21686473LoLLA (Leg of Lamb Looks Awesome)
>>21685901You need that young lamb, if the red is too dark, you're fucked.
looks good could do with some roast taters though
>>21686011This looks goodGood cookalongIf you have never tried it i recommend you try slow roasted lamb. You just cook it at 325 until it hits about 185 then blast it under the broiler until it either gets brown or hits 200. Comes out wicked tender like a pot roast. I almost did a lambalong last week but didnt wanna deal with new captcha, i made pitas and tzatziki and it was good
>>21687516Sounds good.
Good thread and good cook too, thanks OP. I fucking love lamb.
That's a nice looking lamb OP. 8/10, would eat.
