Steps:
- Combine the yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest and juice, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a large non-reactive bowl. Add the lamb, making sure it is covered with marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator, covered, overnight or for up to 3 days.
- Bring the lamb to room temperature. Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals. Scrape the marinade off the lamb, wipe the meat with paper towels, and season it generously with salt and pepper. Brush the grill with oil to keep the lamb from sticking, and grill on both sides until the internal temperature is 120 to 125 degrees for rare. This will take 40 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how hot the grill is.
- Remove the lamb to a cutting board, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 20 minutes. Then slice and serve.

GRILLED LEG OF LAMB
Steps:
- Combine marinade ingredients and place in a one-gallon resealable plastic bag. Unfold the lamb and examine how the butcher butterflied it. You may need to further cut it so the meat is of fairly uniform thickness. You may also have to cut it into 2 to 3 smaller, easier to handle portions. Add lamb to plastic bag and marinate in fridge for at least 2 hours.
- Place lamb on grill over well-heated coals or low-medium flame gas grill. Turn lamb 2 to 3 times while grilling and remove once degree of doneness is achieved (measure with instant-read thermometer). Allow meat to rest 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
- Serve with any/all of the following: 1. Reduced marinade (cook down while grilling meat); 2. Fresh garlic aioli; 3. Raspberry jalapeno sauce (recipe below)
- Serve this to someone who thinks they don't like lamb. It's a huge hit at our annual July 4th barbecue.
- Sweat the garlic, onions and peppers in the butter. Add preserves, stirring constantly until liquefied. Add wine and reduce to syrupy consistency.

Steps:
- Mix olive oil, mustard, lemon juice, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.
- Place the whole rack of lamb into a large zip-top bag and pour mustard mixture all over it. Massage the sauce into the meat until fully coated. Place in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or up to 6 hours.
- Clean an outdoor grill and preheat for high heat. Lightly oil the grate.
- Remove lamb from the refrigerator and discard marinade. Wrap exposed bones in a layer of aluminum foil to prevent them from burning and flaking.
- Place lamb on the preheated grill over direct heat. Sear the surface briefly, just until a dark brown crust starts to form, about 3 minutes; be careful it doesn't burn. Flip and sear the other side.
- Move onto indirect heat and close the grill. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 120 degrees F (58 degrees C) for medium rare, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Transfer lamb to a serving dish and cover with foil for 5 minutes. Remove all foil and cut into chops to serve.

GRILLED LEG OF LAMB, SAM'S WAY
This lamb recipe comes from a feast that Mark Bittman and Sam Sifton prepared in Charleston, S.C. They found good lamb and decided to cook it two different ways, braised and grilled, to bring different textures and flavors to the plate - and also to nod to the tradition of the paschal lamb in Jewish and Christian springtime traditions.

Steps:
- Combine the garlic, rosemary and olive oil in a bowl. Season the lamb with salt and pepper, then massage with the garlic and rosemary mixture and put the meat in the bowl. Cover and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Allow it to come to room temperature, approximately 30 minutes. Meanwhile, build a fire in your grill, leaving 1/3 of the cooking area free of coals.
- When the fire is hot, sprinkle the pecan shells or wood chips over the fire and place the lamb fat side down. Sear each side of the lamb for approximately 4 minutes each, then remove the lamb to the side of the grill without coals and roast, covered, for approximately 30 to 40 minutes.
- Tent in foil for 10 to 15 minutes, and serve.

Steps:
- Lay lamb out flat, and sprinkle with salt and pepper on all sides.
- Put oil in baking dish large enough to hold lamb. Add lamb, and sprinkle on both sides with mustard seeds, cumin, garlic, thyme, fennel seeds, rosemary, bay leaves, lemon juice and red wine. Turn and rub lamb so it is evenly coated with the ingredients. Marinate in a cool place for 1 or 2 hours, or in a refrigerator up to 6 hours. If lamb is refrigerated, let it return to room temperature before cooking.
- Preheat a charcoal grill or oven broiler.
- Remove lamb from marinade and reserve marinade. If a grill is used, put lamb flat on grill. If broiler is used, place lamb under broiler 4 to 5 inches from heat. Cook lamb uncovered on grill or under broiler about 15 minutes. Turn and cook 10 to 15 minutes on second side. For medium or well-done meat, cook longer.
- Meanwhile, in a baking pan large enough to hold lamb, bring reserved marinade to a boil, stirring until the liquid is reduced by half. Remove from heat, and swirl in butter and parsley. Transfer lamb to marinade pan, cover loosely with foil and keep warm. Let meat rest 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Slice thinly and serve with pan gravy.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of lamb: For this recipe, a leg of lamb is ideal. It's a flavorful and juicy cut that can withstand the heat of the grill.
- Marinate the lamb: Marinating the lamb in a mixture of red wine, garlic, mustard, and sage helps to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
- Grill the lamb over medium heat: This will help to prevent the lamb from drying out.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the lamb is cooked to your desired doneness: For medium-rare lamb, cook to an internal temperature of 135°F.
- Let the lamb rest before carving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
Conclusion:
Grilled Leg of Lamb with Red Wine, Garlic, Mustard, and Sage is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a special occasion meal. The lamb is tender and juicy, and the marinade gives it a wonderful depth of flavor. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
