Some people, such as my wife, complain that lamb and mutton are gamey and fatty. However I
think they are packed with subtle, sweet, grassy flavours. Leg of lamb, lamb chops and lamb fillet
all work well when cooked medium-rare. The shoulder and forequarter however have more flavour
due to the increased connective tissue. This connective tissue can be tough, hence gentle, slow
cooking over a long period of time is required to convert the collagen into soft sticky flavourful
gelatin.
If you can get mutton you will be rewarded with deep complex flavours. Lamb will give a lighter
but equally luscious result. In Australia and New Zealand our lamb is historically a by-product of
the wool industry. It has a stronger flavour than you will find in other places where a milder, more
subtle and grassy meat is a result of selective breeding.
INGREDIENTS
Lamb shoulder (use leg if you can’t source a shoulder)
1 bunch fresh rosemary
1 bunch fresh mint
BASTE
1 cup apple cider vinegar 1 cup water
1 can of dark beer (stout or porter)
¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
1 tblsp chopped rosemary
1 tblsp dark brown sugar
½ tblsp salt
½ tblsp crushed fresh garlic
1 tsp hot smoked paprika
Mix all the baste ingredients together in a saucepan and stir continuously over low heat. Simmer
for 5 minutes, remove ¾ of the baste and allow to cool.
Heat the remaining baste to a boil and add another tablespoon of dark brown sugar to use as a
'dip' with finished meat. Set aside for the resting period.
COOKING
Pre heat your gas smoker to LOW: 105-135°C (220-275°F).
Place the lamb inside smoker and smoke for 10 hours (yes 10!). Baste the shoulder once an hour,
every hour for the next 10 hours.
After 10 hours, or when the meat registers an internal temperature of roughly 90°C (195°F),
