Wendy’s Christmas Eve Barbecued Leg of Lamb
Serves 6
When her family descends on Christmas Eve, our Customer Ambassador Wendy uses her Cobb to cook up a lovely lamb feast outside under the stars, keeping everyone well fed whilst ensuring the kitchen stays mess-free ahead of all the Christmas Day cooking.
Ingredients
- 235ml red wine
- 175ml soy sauce
- 6 cloves garlic, crushed
- Large handful chopped fresh mint
- 2 tbsp fresh rosemary
- 1 tbsp coarsely ground black pepper
- 2kg leg of lamb
Instructions
- Mix all the flavouring ingredients together in a shallow bowl large enough to hold the lamb. Add the lamb, coat well then cover and leave in the fridge for up to 24 hours, turning frequently.
- When you’re ready to cook, lift out the lamb, setting the marinade aside for basting during cooking.
- Barbecue the lamb over a medium high heat on the Cobb for about 20 minutes on each side, basting frequently with the marinade.
- Once cooked to your liking, remove from the heat, cover loosely with foil and leave to stand for 5 minutes. Serve with creamy mash, roasted red onions and garlic, and green beans.
