It helps keep in the juices while it's cooking. <BR/>Also, next time try you should try crusting the lamb with mustard and then with the herbs. Gives it a little extra punch.<BR/><BR/>I've got some of my own recipes on my blog.

I have no idea why it just does. I cooked a bone in prime rib for xmas and it took an extra hour to cook.. the recipe said 20 min per lbs.... it should have been done in 3hrs, it took 4; and the meat around the bones was still mooing abit. Your oven could not be calibrated right as well. <BR/><BR/>next time!Miss Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13176084700118835962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8719790246839571982.post-59446473327735074502009-01-08T07:59:00.000-06:002009-01-08T07:59:00.000-06:00Nothing beats a meat thermometer.

And if using a convection oven, take it out 10-15 degress away from desired doneness.Melanie Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00845137938576074247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8719790246839571982.post-55581629896436257502009-01-08T07:58:00.000-06:002009-01-08T07:58:00.000-06:00We had a good discussion and laugh over this one l...We had a good discussion and laugh over this one last night when Garrett called.

To get to medium would probably take a few minutes longer per pound.<BR/><BR/>I always roast with a meat thermometer in, and use The Joy of Cooking (because it is well proofed at this point) to give me a guide line on how long things should take too cook, so I can time events appropriately. Ultimately, the temp determines when I pull a roast out.<BR/><BR/>Your lamb looked well worth the wait!QBrainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12805806517846566644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8719790246839571982.post-48320484376418254152009-01-08T05:14:00.000-06:002009-01-08T05:14:00.000-06:00That looks so delicious and has started making my ...That looks so delicious and has started making my mouth water and stomach rumble.

Because like Mary said it should take longer than 30 minutes. maybe a foil tent would help after you put the water in so the meat will steam and cook faster. I have made an 8 lb roast before and it took about 2 hours in the oven before it was done. i pulled mine at 140 degrees for medium-rare. yum yum!:)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8719790246839571982.post-25051069844992167552009-01-08T00:51:00.000-06:002009-01-08T00:51:00.000-06:00I don't know, 30 minutes to me for a leg of lamb d...I don't know, 30 minutes to me for a leg of lamb doesn't seem nearly enough. I would expect it to be around an hour and a half to come out medium so... Assuming, however, that I'm wrong, maybe your oven isn't circulating right? Or you opened the oven door too long? Both of those can reduce the heat and how quickly and evenly your food will cook. Anyway, it looks good! Better luck next time. :)Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01858493468553698112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8719790246839571982.post-40775779780255562432009-01-07T23:39:00.000-06:002009-01-07T23:39:00.000-06:00That really does look good.That really does look good.Solyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04832343408827930456noreply@blogger.com
