Woods for grilling lamb

Fredc · February 2008

Hello all,

Hope everyone is having a good Sunday. Love this forum. I am grilling a leg of lamb this afternoon. Any suggestions on what to use for wood chips or chunks? Have had my egg since June and use it about three times a week at a min...

Thanks for any help.

i did a semi boneless last night. first on on the egg previous has been boneless or chops. boys said the flavor of the bone in was superior and requested it for future cooks. just different hunk of lamb???? or does bone in make a difference in flavor??

I have heard that the bone in is much better. I am using Mario Batali's recipe and he calls for bone in. When I went to the butcher this afternoon he cut the bone out unfortunately. Doing a 4 hour marinade.

Olive wood is the bomb for roast lamb.

Apple has been mentioned. I like pecan and guava also. Sometimes I will use rosemary twigs from my plant either by itself or mixed with the above mentioned.

Thanks

You should be able to get it at a BBQ specialty store or Bass Pro. Stephen Raichlen packages it with the rest of his product line.
