Honey Grilled Shoulder of Lamb
Lamb
is one of our very favorite meats. While we cook it all year round we
love the flavor of lamb cooked on the grill. This grilled lamb shoulder
recipe comes from the folks at the American Lamb Council. I'd say if anyone
knows how to cook a lamb, it's them.
My husband and I made this lamb roast for a cookout we had last year.
It was moist and flavorful, and best of all our guests who'd never eaten
lamb before enjoyed it. We always like a change from the routine lamb
recipes that call for garlic and rosemary. We think the mildness of the
flavor and the sweetness from the marinade is one of the reasons this
recipe is so popular. It's perfect for a cookout.
You should
be able to find a boned and rolled lamb shoulder at your local supermarket.
If not, the supermarket butcher can bone and roll a shoulder for you.
Honey Grilled
Shoulder of Lamb

1 shoulder of lamb, boned, rolled and tied ( 3 1/2 - 4 pounds)
1/3 cup honey
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh mint or 1 tablespoon dried mint
2 tablespoons grated lemon peel
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
Place the lamb in a glass dish. Combine all ingredients and pour over
the lamb. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
Place the lamb on
spit over hot coals. *
Brush occasionally with marinade. Grill for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until
the meat thermometer registers 140 degrees (rare), 150-155 degrees (medium)
or 160 (medium, well-done). Left over sauce can be heated and served over
sliced lamb.
* Our grill
does not have a spit. We roast this lamb on our gas grill over medium-high
heat. We baste it approximately every 20 minutes and turn the roast during
cooking. We judge the doneness using a meat thermometer.

Different varieties of green beans
I remember the first time I heard the Barefoot Contessa Ina Garten use the term haricot verts I couldn't think what it could be. Knowing how Ina loves French cooking I knew that it must be some fabulous French ingredient I'd never heard of. Well, imagine my surprise when I leared that haricot verts were green beans! True haricot verts are very thin, crisp and tender green beans.
Holiday green bean casserole recipe
Everyone's favorite holiday green bean recipe. Anyone who cooks, and everyone who has ever eaten a Thanksgiving dinner is familiar with that old favorite the green bean casserole. What could be more simple, frozen or canned green beans, cream of mushroom soup and canned dried onions. Just try to find canned dried onions within three days of Thanksgiving in any foodstore - good luck. Campbell's came up with this creamy/crunchy concoction in 1955.
