Leg of lamb deserves the spotlight on more days than just Easter! Try it out for your next dinner party or family gathering.
A whole-leg roast consists of the bone-in leg of lamb from the hip to the shank. Our Icelandic lamb is mild flavored and lean, which makes for a roast that everyone will enjoy.
We recommend slow roasting your leg of lamb. The lower and slower that it cooks, the more tender the meat will be. Coat with a mixture of rosemary and garlic, then stick in a 300°F oven for several hours until the internal temperature at the thickest point is 125°F. Remove from the oven and let rest before slicing thinly and serving with potatoes and fruit chutney.
An incredible meal any time of the year!
Each Plumb Rocky Farm whole lamb leg roast weighs roughly three pounds which is enough for six to eight people.
** Icelandic Sheep are a heritage breed. They are the oldest purebred lamb and have a more mild flavor than other breeds. Our pasture-raised lambs eat a 100% grass diet which results in delicious, nutrient-rich meat. **
