Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 10 servings

  • 1 cup vegetable oil

  • ½ cup distilled white vinegar

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste

  • 1 (3 pound) boneless leg of lamb, trimmed of fat

  • ½ cup water

  • ½ cup lemon juice

  • ¾ cup vegetable oil

  • 2 ½ cups tomato puree

  • 2 cups chopped onion

  • 2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar

  • 2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce (e.g. Tabasco™)

  • 1 teaspoon minced hot green chile peppers

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon dry mustard powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Whisk together 1 cup of vegetable oil, 1/2 cups of vinegar, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon salt, and black pepper in a bowl; pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the trimmed lamb leg, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate at room temperature for 2 hours.

  2. Meanwhile, stir together the water, lemon juice, 3/4 cup of vegetable oil, tomato puree, onion, 2 tablespoons of vinegar, hot sauce, minced chile, 2 cloves minced garlic, mustard powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 30 minutes until the onions have softened and the sauce has thickened.

  3. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-low heat, and lightly oil grate.

  4. Remove lamb from marinade, and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade. Cook on the preheated grill 1 1/2 to 2 hours, turning and basting frequently with the hot barbeque sauce.
