Wow! What a great combination of flavors. Made this over Easter weekend and everyone loved it. Also made the Potato Planks.

This was the best blend of flavors, and a wonderful sandwich. The mayo is wonderful, garlic bread a perfect touch and we love the slaw on the sandwich and on the side. I like my lamb medium rare, and I cooked my lamb (3 lbs only 2 hours. Be sure to check the temp as it cooks, and it will come out wonderful, because the length of time in the recipe is much too long, as noted in a previous review. Due to the wonderful flavors, and unique recipe, I gave this 5 stars even though the timing is off.

I had some leftover lamb that I used in this sandwich so I didn't make Guy's recipe, although it looks scrumptious. But I did make the chile mayo and the fennel brussel sprouts slaw, then layered it all into a lovely sandwich. It was DEEELISH! The combination of the gamey lamb with the zip of the chile mayo and then the tangy slaw makes this one of the most complex and best sandwiches I have ever eaten. I'll definitely be making this again.

I just threw $40 worth of lamb in the trash. Ya, thats right-TRASH.
The leg I TRIED making per this recipe was a 4 & 1/2 lb. leg ---
So, I thought to myself, if hes doing a 3 lb. roast for 3 to 4 hrs for a "med-rare", I should be perfectly safe @ 3 hrs for 4 & 1/2 lbs. NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!
I suppose I should take the blame because I trusted the cooking directions. 250 for 3 to 4 hours????? UNLESS YOU LIKE IT WELL DONE, DONT FALL FOR IT!!!!!!
I made the herb/garlic "rub" with the addition of 1 tsp ground corriander and 1 tsp fennel pollen. The flavor was superb and I will use it on the NEXT lamb, as well as pork roasts.
However the next time I make the lamb, it will be to my prefered doneness - med-RARE!!
A WORD OF WARNING....
UNLESS YOU LIKE YOUR LAMB W-E-L-L DONE, DO NOT COOK A 3 LB. ROAST FOR THE 3 TO 4 HOURS CALLED OUT FOR. I'D START CHECKING IT @ABOUT 2 TO 2&1/2 HOURS IN FOR THE MED-RARE HE SPEAKS OF.
