Step 4
Place lamb into a roasting pan and roast in oven until reddish-pink and juicy in the center about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. You may add potatoes or carrots in the pan the last hour. The instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove from oven and cover with aluminum foil
Rest meat about 10 to 15 minutes. The thermometer should read 135 to 140 degrees F (57 degrees C). This is the medium-rare to medium range. Do not overcook as the flavor is best if meat is still slightly pink.. -
