Title: Boneless Leg From Costco
Post by: Ken on August 13, 2023, 04:53:41 PM

Has anyone ever smoked the boneless leg of lamb from Costco?  It’ a regular item there for may years and the price is right.  My other question is the final IT.  I’ve always cooked to about 140.  I was reading Steven Raichlen’s book Project Smoke and everything he cooks goes to 195.  Does anyone have any ideas?

I do my lamb rare-pull at 110 and rest to 120.  Medium is 130 rest 140, and well if you are so inclined is 150 rest to 160. Raichlen-, who I like, is simply overcooking his lamb-just my opinion

Seems like it but after reading again, he’s not doing the classic leg of lamb.  What’s your favorite wood for leg of lamb?
