How to Cook Leg of Lamb

1. Light pre-arranged charcoal with a small amount of lit charcoal using a chimney.
2. Adjust the dampers to achieve a cooker temperature of 300ºF – 325ºF
3. Once the temperature has been established and stabilized, insert the spit into the rotisserie motor and ring accessory, then turn on motor.
4. After 40 minutes, check the internal temperature of the lamb using an instant-read thermometer. Continue to check the temperature every 10 minutes until the desired doneness is achieved.
   
   Rare: 125ºF – 134ºF
   Medium Rare: 125ºF – 134ºF
   Medium: 135ºF – 145ºF
   Medium Well: 146ºF – 151ºF
   Well Done: 152ºF – 167ºF
   
   
5. Once the target temperature is reached, pull the lamb from the cooker and remove the rotisserie spit. Allow the lamb to rest for about 15 minutes on a cutting board before slicing.

Enjoy!
