Norm, glad to visit your blog...I've been on long hiatus, just getting back to my own blog and my favorites! Hey..this is timely! I just won 6, (yes, 6) boneless legs of lambs! This recipe can be adapted to leg, no?
Any suggestions?

Hi Catherine,
Yes, you can braise a whole leg of lamb, but for my money I would roast them. Cook on a grill or in the oven-120 degrees internal temperature then let rest for 20 mins..good eats!

That was a shitload of dessert. I really wish I had a few pieces of it in front of me right now.
