This is a fabulous way to prepare leg of lamb.

Butterfly the leg of lamb and trim the excess fat.  Place the meat in a big ziplock bag.  Add the following ingredients into the bag:

4 tablespoons of olive oil

1 teaspoon of black pepper

1 teaspoon of oregano

2-3 sprigs of rosemary

3-5 cloves of garlic (diced)

1/2 cup of lemon juice

Let the mixture marinate for at least a few hours, and preferably overnight.   Take the meat out of the bag and wipe the excess marinade off of it.  Place the meat on a preheated grill for about 4 – 5 minutes per side for a thinner cut and 6-8 minutes per side for a thicker cut.  Take the meat off the grill and add a sprinkle of garlic salt.  Serve medium rare.

Our favorite way to eat grass-fed steaks, whether they are beef or lamb, is to throw them on the BBQ and keep it simple.  The most important thing is to not overcook the meat. 

We suggest using 1 to 1 1/4 inch steaks.   Take 1 tablespoon of olive oil and rub or brush it on the steaks.   Season it to your liking with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.   Place the steaks on a grill preheated to 450  degrees.  Close the lid on the grill and allow the steaks to cook for 5 minutes.  Flip the steaks, close the lid again, and cook for another 4 minutes.  Voila!  That’s it.  We promised it is simple.  Serve medium rare, preferably with fresh grilled veggies and a nice glass of wine or a cold beer.
