temp for roasting mutton on a spit
Bone the lamb through the side, or have your butcher do it. Spread the lamb with tapanade: 8 ounces pitted green and black olives pureed with 2 tablespoons each capers and extra virgin olive oil. Roll the lamb and tie into tight cylinders. A layer of fat on the outside helps keep the meat moist during roasting.Next, thread the lamb on the spit. To boost the heat, Iâve lit the outside grill burners so the meat both spit-roasts and indirect grills. This is in addition to the rotisserie burner. Cooking time is about 1-1/4 hours for two 4-pound boned legs.Aim for an internal temperature of 140 degrees.one the lamb through the side, or have your butcher do it.
