Did boneless Leg of Lamb today - Kentucky pulled Lamb style. My daughters request. I never cooked lamb and had no idea what it tastes like but I'm her BBQ guy. Prepped it last night and cooked it today.. That 6 pounder took 7 hrs. and 15 minutes to cook. 5.5 hrs. at 260°F and 1.6 hrs. wrapped in foil at 300°F. B&B Championship Blend pellets. I foiled early to ensure that it had a good rest before dinner time. It was probe tender at 204 IT. Wrapped in more foil and into the cooler for 2 hrs. Tender, juicy, and good taste. A finishing sauce consisting of drippings and my mop sauce amped it up. Those members of the family that showed up today loved it. My daughter made a Louisville sandwich. Hamburger bun, lamb, mayonnaise, pickle, and onion. I really enjoyed it. Who knew lamb was that good? I got lucky - again.

I smoked it on my Weber Smokefire using B&B Championship Blend pellets.

My thanks to TonyUK for your post of June 19. You validated my plan and I only deviated a little in order to finish it for dinner time.

You are such a nice dad. Your daughter seems to have you wrapped around a finger, being her BBQ guy;-) Looks like it came out great. How would you rate it against pulled pork and beef?

It's a new taste for me but I like it. I could get used to eating it more often but my wife likes Pork and Beef more. I cook to her taste so I probably won't do it again unless a daughter or granddaughter asks me to. My daughter has had me wrapped around her finger for 53 years. I like the challenge of trying new cooks and enjoy new tastes so it was fun for me.
