Our Farms & Suppliers
At Eversfield Organic we use a selection of small, local sheep farms that work solely with us. Our farms have various breeds, from Scottish Blackface ewes to Manx Loaghtan sheep, who are of course all 100% grass-fed. They also have perfect parenting skills for those bouncy spring lambs and a friendly temperament. The lambs are also grass-fed, so these happy little sheep spend their lives in the fields, the way it should be. They graze freely on organic pastures, roaming acres of luscious rolling hills. A clover-rich diet gives the meat a healthy covering of fat and marbling throughout, creating meltingly soft roasting joints, succulent centrepieces, and tender, quick-cooking grass-fed steaks.

How To Cook 

We Recommend:

Cooking Steps

  1. Preparation:

    • Remove the lamb from the refrigerator and pat it dry with paper towels to ensure good browning.
    • Score the Fat: If the leg of lamb has a thick layer of fat, score it lightly in a crisscross pattern. This allows the fat to render out during cooking and enhances the flavour.

  2. Seasoning:

    • While smoked leg of lamb already has flavour, you can enhance it by rubbing the surface with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any additional herbs or spices you prefer, such as:
      • Garlic powder
      • Rosemary
      • Thyme
    • Optional: If desired, you can marinate the lamb in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs for a few hours or overnight before cooking.

  3. Roasting:

    • Place the smoked leg of lamb on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. The rack allows for even heat circulation.
    • Pour a little water or stock into the bottom of the roasting pan. This will create steam during cooking and help keep the lamb moist.
    • Roast the lamb in the preheated oven for approximately 2.5 to 3 hours.

  4. Basting:

    • Baste the lamb with its own juices every 30-45 minutes to keep it moist and flavourful.

  5. Check for Doneness:

    • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature:
      • Medium-rare: 55-60°C (130-140°F)
      • Medium: 60-65°C (140-150°F)
      • Well-done: 70°C (160°F) and above
    • The meat should be tender and pull apart easily.

  6. Resting:

    • Once the lamb reaches the desired temperature, remove it from the oven and cover it loosely with foil. Allow it to rest for 15-20 minutes. Resting helps redistribute the juices, ensuring a moist and tender result.
