Ingredients
Scale
- 1 bone-in Lamb Shoulder
- 4 sprigs Fresh Rosemary (or 1 tablespoon dried rosemary)
- 4 cloves Garlic, minced (or 1 teaspoon garlic powder)
- 1/4 cup Honey (or maple syrup)
- 1/4 cup Balsamic Vinegar (or red wine vinegar)
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil
- Salt and Pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: Combine garlic, rosemary, honey, and balsamic vinegar. Whisk in olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Marinate the Lamb: Place lamb shoulder in a dish and pour marinade over. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
- Preheat the Oven: Set the oven to 325°F (165°C).
- Sear the Lamb: Heat a skillet, sear lamb on all sides for 3-4 minutes until golden brown.

Allowing the lamb to marinate overnight infuses more flavor. Baste periodically during roasting to keep it moist.
