About Our Lamb Leg
A leg of lamb is a proper centrepiece - the thing you put in the middle of the table when there is something to mark. It is lean but not too lean, tender enough to be roasted pink, and large enough to feed a room. Left on the bone it roasts more evenly and carves more impressively; boned and butterflied it flattens out for the grill and cooks in half the time.
We will prepare it either way. Ask for it butterflied if you plan to cook over charcoal - a flat leg takes marinade across its whole surface and cooks in about 30 minutes, and the varying thickness means you can serve rare and well-done from the same piece. Ask for it bone-in and we will French the shank end so it carves neatly.
Lamb leg wants garlic, rosemary and lemon, or a yoghurt-and-spice marinade if you are going in a Kenyan-Indian direction. Cook it to medium at most; past that the leanness starts to show. For the same animal in a cut that suits slow cooking, take a shoulder, and for individual portions our loin chops are the choice.
How to Cook Lamb Leg
- Bone-in roast: 200C for 20 minutes, then 180C for 15 minutes per 500g for medium.
- Butterflied on charcoal: 15 minutes a side over medium coals, then rest.
- Stud with garlic and rosemary through slits cut into the fat.
- Rest at least 20 minutes for a whole leg - it is a big piece of meat.
- Carve across the grain, working around the bone in sections.

Yes, and at no extra charge - it is the whole point of buying from a butcher rather than a chiller cabinet. Tell us the thickness, trim, portion size or preparation you want in the notes when you order, or just describe what you are cooking and let us choose. We butcher whole carcasses at City Market, so the options are real.
