MARINATED BBQ BONELESS LEG OF LAMB
A Moroccan lamb marinade brings so much flavour to this BBQ boneless leg of lamb! Using butterflied lamb speeds up grilling time and the boneless meat is incredibly succulent and easy to carve. Cook on your barbecue or in the oven in case of rain!The marinade is enough for two boneless legs of lamb, around 900g/2 pounds each, or one larger piece. A larger piece will require longer cooking time (see notes).

Steps:
- Prepare the marinade: add the ground cinnamon, cumin, coriander, turmeric and garlic granules into a large container. Stir Add the lamb and rub the marinade all over. Cover and chill for 2-4 hours, or overnight if you prefer.
- Prepare your barbecue for two zone cooking. Pile the coals on one side of the BBQ and light. Leave the other side empty of coals or add a very sparse layer of coals (once they are hot). Wait until the coals have turned ashy and any flames have died down before grilling.
- Take the lamb out of the fridge and let it come to room temperature for at least 30 minutes while your BBQ is heating up. Remove the lamb from the BBQ marinade and discard any leftover marinade. Season liberally with salt on both sides.
- Place the lamb fat side down on the hot side BBQ and sear for 4 minutes. Have a spray bottle of water handy in case you get flare ups due to the fat dripping on the coals.
- Flip the lamb over and sear on the other side.
- Now move the lamb to the cooler side of your barbecue, fat side down. Close the lid and cook for 20 minutes then check the temperature with a meat thermometer. The lamb is ready when it registers around 63°C (145°F) for medium rare on a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat (see also grilling times for lamb notes). If it's not ready yet continue cooking for a further 5-10 minutes.
- Rest the cooked lamb loosely covered with foil for 15 minutes. Slice into thin slivers, pouring any meat juices over the slices. Serve immediately.
- Preheat the oven to 180° (350°F).
- Brush a griddle pan with oil and sear the lamb for 4 minutes per side, pressing down so that it browns evenly. This may be quite smoky so open a window or turn an extractor fan on!
- Transfer the lamb onto a rack set over a roasting tin. Cook for 30 minutes then check the temperature of your lamb. Continue cooking for another 10 minutes or longer, depending on size. Rest before serving.

Steps:
- Cut off as much fat as possible from the leg. Put onion, garlic, bay leaves, peppercorns, sugar and salt into saucepan, pour vinegar and water over them and bring to the boil. Let simmer 1 minute and set aside to cool. Put lamb into saucepan or pot into which it fits snugly, and pour lukewarm marinade over it. When cool refrigerate and turn the leg several times during the next 24 hours. The next day, remove leg from marinade and insert slivered garlic into the meat. Rub with salt and pepper, place in roasting pan and roast at 400 degrees until lamb is just browned (about 10 to 15 minutes). Add marinade ingredients, baste with marinade and reduce heat to 350 degrees. Roast for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, continuing to baste, until leg is done. A half an hour before roasting is finished, add the pitted, marinated plums or mushrooms with a few tablespoons of their liquid and baste. Serve with the sauce from the pan and white rice.
- Wash and thoroughly dry plums. Prick all over with a sharp needles and place in a deep enamel or glass dish. Blend vinegar, sugar and spices in another enamel saucepan and bring to the boil. Then pour this mixture evenly over the plums. Let stand another day and the next day repeat this procedure. On the following day, pour plums and marinade into glass jars so that plums are completely covered by liquid.

Steps:
- Combine oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in sealable plastic bag. Add lamb and seal bag, pressing out air. Turn bag to coat lamb, then put bag in a shallow baking pan and marinate, chilled, turning bag over occasionally, at least 8 hours.
- Bring lamb to room temperature, about 1 hour, before grilling.
- Prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure.
- Remove lamb from marinade (discard marinade) and run 3 or 4 skewers lengthwise through lamb about 2 inches apart. Grill on a lightly oiled grill rack, covered only if using gas grill, turning over occasionally and, if necessary, moving around on grill to avoid flare-ups, until thermometer registers 125 to 128°F, 8 to 14 minutes total for medium-rare.
- Transfer lamb to a cutting board and remove skewers. Let lamb stand, loosely covered with foil, 20 minutes. (Internal temperature will rise to 135°F while meat stands.) Cut across the grain into slices.
