Grilled
Lamb with Rosemary
- 1/2 cup raspberry vinegar

1/2 cup dry red wine
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup chopped fresh rosemary
2 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (3-pound) boneless leg of lamb roast, rolled and tied
- In a large resealable
plastic bag, combine vinegar, red wine, soy sauce, rosemary,
garlic, salt and pepper. Add lamb roast, seal and shake gently
until thoroughly coated. Refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours, turning
occasionally.
- Preheat grill to medium-high.
- Drain roast; strain and
reserve liquid.
- Lightly oil grill.
- Place lamb on grill and
cook for 15 minutes, turning once. Remove from grill and wrap
in aluminum foil. Return to grill, cover and cook for 50 minutes,
or until lamb reaches 5 to 10 degress under 150°F for medium-rare

lightly covered, 10 minutes before carving.

reserved marinade in a small saucepan for at least 1 full minute.
