How to do a Roast Lamb Leg in a Weber Kettle

In this video i'm going to show you how to do a roast lamb leg in a Weber kettle!
I'll be covering off the below in this video:
- BBQ set up
- Lamb leg preparation
- Cooking times and temperatures
- How to make crispy duck fat potatoes
- Chilli and garlic green bean recipe
And much more!
I like my roast lamb served medium well, so I chose to take my lamb roast out at 150F/65c internal. If you like yours done a little bit less, then simply remove it at a lower internal temperature.
Here's the chilli garlic green bean recipe for your reference:
- Green beans
- 1tbs soy sauce
- 2 cloves crushed garlic
- 1tsp crispy chilli oil
I simply steam my beans for a few minutes to soften them up, then i'll fry then for a few minutes in the above ingredients to finish!
The duck fat potatoes I boiled until fork tender which took around 10-15 minutes, then I strained them, fluffed them up a bit and then they went into a tray of duck fat. I aim for a cooking temperature of around 200c when I do these in the oven and they took around a hour until they were crispy, they were flipped every 20 minutes during this time too.
Definitely give this meal a try for yourself! The roast lamb leg was amazing, the duck fat potatoes are always a winner and the chilli garlic green beans are a nice side for it all too!

Kettle BBQ roast lamb is one of our family favourites and always goes down a treat. Thanks for the video as always.

[@LownSlowBasics]

Most welcome 🙏

[@BabyDiego10599]

Love your videos, very simple. I own the Bronco and Highland, another reason why I watch your stuff. BBQ for us guys who don't own a $5k pit in our backyard. I also have a Weber Kettle, so your videos are very helpful as well. Cheers!

Cheers mate 🤘

I'm with you bud, love Aaron's videos as he shows the cheapest of BBQs can produce amazing results if done correctly.

[@jamiedon116]

I followed this recipe (I did use SPG) and set of instructions the lamd came out beautifully, really easy really straightforward and a great instructional video. Thank you

[@LownSlowBasics]

Most welcome 😃

[@willnewby5204]

Good videos, there really aren’t that many on YT that explain clearly the basics and timings for using a kettle.

I just ordered a 1/4 lamb from a company that allows people to buy meat straight from farmers which is awesome so I’ll be doing one of these very soon. That looks epic as always!

[@retromakiha]

Love Lamb over charcoals. Will be doing this soon.

So tasty hey!

[@blueenglishstaffybreeder6956]

I often do a leg of lamb in the smoker, please try this method, cook at 250-300 I wrap mine at 160f, cook to 205 and mate it’s phenomenal, best lamb ever

[@LownSlowBasics]

Will do mate, doesn’t come out too dry being a leg? Thought a shoulder would be more suited to that.

[@michaeldruce4536]

I will definitely try that one 😊

[@jonny2278]

I used a leg for pulled lamb recently because I couldn’t get shoulder. It turned out fine but definitely not as good as shoulder

[@tikka25000]

That looks amazing. With your butchering skills you should do one where you teach people how to 'knick' the aitch bone, shank etc before cooking. The meat pulls back so good and makes it simple to seperate the round, topside and outside. Gets soooo much more meat and it's all carved in the correct direction making it more tender.

[@LownSlowBasics]

I don’t want to get too fancy 😆but a great idea regardless. 🙏

[@MarcGKiwi]

great looking lamb. It would be cool if you could show us the temp profilefrom your inkbird thermometer at the end just for interest sake to see what effect lifting the lid has to cook the spuds

[@LownSlowBasics]

Cheers mate! I’ll try to do that next time 👍

[@MJF-81]

Absolutely cracking video, Aaron, thank you! I’ll 100% be doing this just as soon as I’ve chiselled the ice off my Weber! 😂 keep these brilliant videos coming. 🍖

[@timstewart8186]

Awesome video, like how you cover off several foods in there, not just meat. Do you prefer this method of cooking leg of lamb or taking the bone out and butterflying it?

[@LownSlowBasics]

Thanks mate. Hrmm hard to say! I like both.

Would be great if you could pop in your descriptions the summary of the cook. ~3 hrs @ 150c (oak) Remove at 54c Internal Rest for 30 mins I find myself skipping through your videos (in the Irish rain) to remind myself what I was meant to do.

If I want a medium/slightly pink lamb what internal temperature would you recommend taking it out at? Thanks in advance! (Great vids btw)

Same getting the bbq going now

[@keagandevilliers2832]

doesn’t seem like a low and slow cook. what was the temp inside the weber? any benefit to using 105-115c smoking temp?

[@LownSlowBasics]

Obviously not, but still a bbq related video that beginners can learn from. Around 200c. If you wanted a more pronounced smoky flavour then yes.

[@softwaretechnologyengineering]

Any idea on what temperature the kettle was running at, roughly?

[@LownSlowBasics]

Around 200c+ I’d say.

[@softwaretechnologyengineering]

Thanks Aaron

[@fitwal]

What temp did u aim for to cook the lamb at

[@LownSlowBasics]

About 200c cooking temp

@@LownSlowBasics You too mate. Just to let you know, when youtube shorts started, my feed was flooded with them and I HATED them and unsubbed from anyone who was regularly rocking them. They then gave them(after a few months) their own row on my sub page that is easily skippable and that was nice of them. Anyway, long story short. I.have resubbed bro and lookin forward to catching up and reconnecting. cheers.

The only thing I could say is that lamb is way too expensive in the US.

[@meecrob1261]

Trust me mate It’s expensive in aus also.

[@tyler6147]

@@meecrob1261 just out of curiosity what are the rough prices down there for lamb? Here if you want decent rack of lamb it's about $55 to $60 USD per kilo.

[@LownSlowBasics]

I wouldn’t say it’s cheap in Australia but would be cheaper than the US.

[@victorbitter583]

@@tyler6147 If you shop around here in Sydney, you can get a leg for $10-$12/kg. It might not be as good as the lamb in this vid but still quite good.
