Traeger Smoked Leg of Lamb

leg of lamb (bone frenched)

rosemary (finely chopped)

thyme (finely chopped)

garlic (minced)

olive oil

Remove the leg of lamb from the fridge to temper it. Set it on the counter and let it come to room temperature before smoking. About 2 hours.

Score the fat cap on the top of the lamb in a cross-hatch pattern and French the bone if it isn&#39;t already. Season with salt and pepper.

Finely chop the rosemary, thyme, and garlic. Combine these herbs with olive oil to create a paste. I toss them all into a mini chopper and pulse to make a paste.

Rub the herb paste generously over the entire surface of the lamb, working it into the cross hatches.

Preheat your Traeger to 180-F or set it to super smoke and let it come to temperature.

Place the seasoned leg of lamb on the smoker. Smoke at 180-F for about an hour to infuse maximum smoke into the lamb, then turn the heat to 225-F and continue smoking for about 2 hours or until the lamb reaches 135-140 F for medium rare.

Rest the lamb for at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Serve and enjoy!

Start by making a cut around the bone, about 2 to 3 inches from the end, cutting through the meat and fat down to the bone.

Using a sharp knife, scrape the meat and fat away from the bone, pushing it down to expose a clean bone.

Trim any excess fat or sinew from the meaty part of the leg to ensure even cooking and a neat presentation.

How to French or Clean the Bone

This looks amazing, we are looking forward to putting it on a pellet grill soon -- thanks for the insp and recipe!

The lamb was perfectly cooked and infused with the delicious flavors of garlic and herbs. Absolutely yummy! I served it with asparagus and it made a complete and satisfying meal that we all loved. I'll definitely making this again!
