Rub lamb all over with 2 Tbsp. salt, massaging into meat; place on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Combine yogurt, herbs, lemon zest, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl; generously season with black pepper. Rub all over lamb, working into nooks and crannies. Chill, uncovered, at least 8 hours and up to 1 day.
Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Preheat oven to 300°. Grill lamb, turning occasionally, until lightly charred all over, 8–10 minutes. Return to wire rack inside rimmed baking sheet and transfer to oven. Roast until meat is very tender and bone wiggles easily, 3½–4½ hours.
