    I cooked a 6LB Boneless leg of lamb roast and had incredible results. 138 degrees. 7 hours. Tender but still had good texture. It didn't get mushy. I also used the mustard powder trick and then seared with rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. I seared using the broiler in the oven rotating as needed. Do not be afraid to get some color during the sear, it's a big piece of meat that will not overcook.

    I made this for Christmas dinner this week. It was a big success. Besides frying the herbs, this recipe was super simple and stress free. As I was cooking for a large group, I cooked a turkey sous vide as well. Cooking for groups has never been so easy. Joule is simply amazing!!

    I did one today before watching this video... 132 degrees for 10 hours.. finished on charcoal.. it was the best lamb I ever tasted. The meat was extremely tender. But, there was still some tough connective tissue that might have disolved with a longer cooking time. Next time I am going to try this method for sure.

    For whatever reason, I've been on a Leg of Lamb recipe collecting this week and have been watching as many different ways of preparing this dish as possible, and this one seems to be the best.
    When I was growing up in the 60's and 70's, dad always made this dish with slits all over the meat and stuffed them with garlic cloves and I believe rosemary but I don't remember exactly. What I do remember is the mint jelly that he'd spread all over the lamb just before serving it and it was quite delicious indeed!
    I haven't had leg of lamb, chops, rack of, shoulder or anything in nearly twenty years and I've been vegetarian since 2015. I'm getting weak and developing a hankering for some lamb, gosh darn RUclips!!

    I've done this several times, and it's great. To add some complexity, cumin, turmeric, cardamom, coriander seeds, and other South East Asian spices are great too! Also, you don't necessarily have to strain the juices, but it does help get some of the seasoning lumps if the mustard, salt, and pepper decided to clump in the bag.
    Another note, this recipe is great for rack of lamb inside a Solar Cooker.
    I used a Solar Cooker for 5 hours.
    The lamb racks came out perfectly medium rare. Finished them off over fire and it was delish as is with campfire cooked baked potatoes.

    I just firstly want to say the biggest thank you for all you and the team do for us, the amount of knowledge you all process is on point. I know you worked on making modernist cuisine which is a book that changed the face of the industry, I wish I Would of been able to go on that journey with you and come out the other side like some sort of food Jedi. All of the videos are so informative and break things down in such a simple way, inspirational and comforting. Not many people have the balls to do what you and the team has done, your ground breaking explorers setting the rope for others to follow, be it all for free more people should understand the situation, you backed a product which Benefits ordinary people, hope it works out well. Lastly have watched so many of your videos and keep seeing such negative comments and damn right disrespect, just know your true followers may not comment much but we are there progressing with your guidance. Best of wishes and move past the Neg heads, they are but flys buzzing around your heads.

    • @leung9401
      @leung9401 5 лет назад +2

      ​@@e.e5695 It's basically a low temperature slow cooking method which makes the meat incredibly juicy and tender. It's called "sous-vide". If you want the leg of lamb to be at 55° C core temperature, you put it in a bag and cook it in a water bath at exactly 55° C. That way the meat can't overcook and turns out perfect every time.

      But one thing to note: the original joule isn't going to work at the 220V power spec in many countries, you'll need to buy a voltage converter. They are pretty cheap on Amazon, just wanted to let you know so you didn't burn out your new toy on day1.
      Also I've tested the Joule Iphone app and it is worth the wait! Seriously it's sooo fantastic, hand it to anyone and turn them into an awesome chef.

    If one doesn’t have access to a sous vide, how about reverse sear while covering the lamb so it doesn’t dry out?… since there’s not much fat I assume doing a standard “open” reverse sear at 225 or so would dry it out.
    Thanks! Just bought a leg and am “wet dry brining” it right now. Aka dry brine with Saran wrap over it so it doesn’t dry out in the fridge the way you want chicken skin or a steak to do.

Maybe you're thinking of goat! And why Sous Vide? It's a tender meat. I have a Sous Vide gurgling behind me as I type..but I wouldent Sous vide lamb. Do a pork shoulder that way instead or s round of beef.

    It's funny to see all the complaints about it being 24 hours. Sous Vide cooking is some of the easiest cooking you'll come across. In most cases, you season the meat, toss it in a bag, and then set it and forget it. This one gets a little fancy with the fried herbs on top, but that's optional. Sous vide seems ridiculous before you've done it. Once you taste the result, you won't go back.
