Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat. (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the limeade concentrate, white wine, garlic, salt, pepper, and thyme. Cook, stirring, until the butter is melted. Remove from heat. (10 minutes)

03

Step
47 mins

Place leg of lamb onto the preheated grill, and cook basting frequently for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the internal temperature has reached at least 145 degrees F (62 degrees C).

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the glaze for a subtle kick.
Be sure to baste the lamb frequently to keep it moist and ensure the glaze caramelizes beautifully.
Let the lamb rest for 10 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful cut.
