SMOKED SHOULDER LAMB

[Fabio_3]

Hi all,
could you help me about the right way to cook a perfect smoked shoulder lamb on a gas grill?
Thanks everyone

I always like lamb cooked medium-rare, so I would reverse sear it. Start the cook indirect, using wood chips (I also throw some rosemary branches on) for smoke flavor until the temp is 120 F or so. Then finish it by searing over direct heat for a few minutes. Works well on a gas or any other type of grill.

Welcome Fabio, I hope these help you.

I've done shoulder a couple of times following this recipe and it's turned out great:

I used the "dolly" rub that's linked to in the above recipe.

I’ve done a couple just like I do Boston Butts at 225. I haven’t been a fan of lamb, but really enjoyed the shoulder.

Medium rare in a boneless leg of lamb, cooked on my pellet grill, served with mint jelly, Very good.
BTW, pairs well with PBR
Happy grilling to you.

I would not do a shoulder medium rare. Personally, I think they need the time and temp to soften them up.

100%, you can get away with MR leg but I agree, a shoulder needs to see some temp to get tender, great flavour though!!
