Baah, Upper and lower legs of Lamb

Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm not sure what these are called but I bought a vacuum packed bag of 5. They seemed pretty meaty. I've eaten these from goat with a sweet brown sauce here in Indonesia. Lower legs? And I also bought another Aussie boneless leg of lamb.

I rubbed these both down with just a little French's mustard and then sprinkled them with my trusty McCormic's savory herb roasting rub.

Started at 350º for a half hour then down to 260º until the big leg was 145º. The lil' legs were in the mid 150º's

This was the most tender and moist lamb I've ever cooked. More tender than great tenderloin.. This will make great thin sliced sammies later this week.

These did not have a lotta meat on them but it was very flavorful..

I think those are shins, Dennis. Beef shin meat is often found in Chinese cuisine. Probably same deal with lamb.

Those garden greens look pretty good! Play on. :)

Otherwise known as lamb shanks, one of my all time faves! Now I know they can be done on the KK! These are from the front legs.

Oooh! Gramma used to order those special from the grocery butcher! Those and veal shanks. :)

How long did you roast the lamb shanks? I'm really interested in cooking these, in the dead of summer we seem to always have a surplus of them, leftovers from the shoulders and the boneless legs of lamb( for Easter it was rumored that we fixed a butterflied leg on my Mother-in-law's gasser)

You gotta wonder how these rumors get started.

I wouldn't think there'd be much meat on a butterfly's leg, but one never knows.

I mean, one wouldn't think anyone would grill bugs at all, but Dennis showed otherwise...

Don't fret too much Dennis - they taught us which bugs to eat while I was in SERE school with the Navy (Google it) lol However, they never taught us how to "prepare" the insects. You just helped me to fill in the missing gap! :lol::eek::lol::D
