Grilled Lamb
If you grill over coals, choose natural hardwood charcoal, as Andrew Zimmern does, to infuse meat with smoky flavor. Serve this dish with some of his outstanding homemade flatbread.

This was also my first attempt at lamb. The recipe didn't specify whether or not to remove the lamb from the bag and flatten it on the grill or keep it trussed up. I kept it trussed up and regret that I didn't flatten it because it took a lot longer to grill - more like 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Very tasty though and so much left over to use in other recipes like gyros or shawarma.
I was so so impressed by how easy this recipe turned out to be. It was my first time cooking lamb and I was kind of nervous, lest I should ruin a not-so-cheap cut of meat but it grilled up beautifully and tasted even better. I will definitely use this recipe anytime I want to impress a crowd or even just impress myself
