Ingredients
- 1 whole lamb shoulder, bone-in
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 Tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
- 2 Tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix balsamic vinegar, rosemary, thyme, garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
- Place the lamb shoulder in a large dish and pour the marinade over it. Rub the marinade all over the meat, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to enhance the flavors.
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C).
- Remove the lamb from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.
- Roast the lamb in the preheated oven for about 2 hours, or until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare. Adjust cooking time for desired doneness.
- Let the lamb rest for 15 minutes before carving to allow juices to redistribute.
