Succulent Slow-Cooked Lamb:
My family traditionally has roast lamb for Easter, which is fine with me because I love the stuff. Normally, we don’t have lamb too often other than the few celebratory holiday’s and occasional feasts. Instead of doing an oven roast, I wanted to do it in the slow cooker to keep the stress levels down of everyone around.
The meat ended up being super tender, almost fall apart in the mouth, with some great fat from the leg to supplement the leg too. That last hour where you add the thyme and mint imparts just enough flavor to make you notice the flavors, but if there’s anyone that doesn’t like mint at all, have them give it a try. It’s very subtle and they might actually enjoy it when it’s not the forefront of the dish.
As always, you can make the maple syrup to use in this recipe and many others by seeing the Maple Syrup Recipe. Let me know what you think of this recipe – I know the pictures aren’t all that appetizing, but the meat will make up for the look – I promise you that!
