Leg of Lamb

I have a 3 1/2 lb. leg of lamb and want to egg it. The only recipe I found called for cooking it 12 minutes on each side-this doesnt sound long enough, Any ideas or recipes?

    Branden Wells,
    that'd be for a boneless leg of lamb.[p]have you got a bone-in leg?[p]if you do, i dunno, i always revert to the classics. i assume you are considering it for easter?[p]rosemary, slivers of garlice stabbed into it every inch or so, some kosher salt, pepper.[p]man o man.
    very rustic. everyone LOVES it.[p]and even tho i serve it rare, no one flinches. it goes quick.[p]try lavendar smoke, if you have it.
    not too much.[p]or lilac wood.[p]normally i just do it on the egg without much fuss, and the charcoal adds enough smoke by itself.

    <p />Branden Wells,[p]I agree with stike, a roasted leg of lamb is hard to beat. I would go by temperature instead of time, you don't want to over cook it.[p]For another choice, click the link and check out DobieDad's recipe in the Lamb section. It is on my easter list.[p]~thirdeye~
