    Nooooo

    There is an interactive cooking guide here:

    http://www.cookipedia.co.uk/wiki/index.php/Meat_cooking_time_calculator

    As it has no bone in it it will be very dry if you leave it in there that long (and probably very crispy!)

    Personally I just throw my potatoes into the pan with the meat, I dont bother with par boiling, and turn them halfway through cooking. They will take about an hour so put them in when you put the lamb in.

    That tells me it'll take an hour? I thought I was doing slow roasted lamb? :huh:
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    But without the bone in it, it will dry out very quickly........

    Even slow roasted lamb, and I do a whole shoulder at a time will only take 3 hours max at 140 degrees.

    Shoulder of lamb is fattier than leg of lamb and does benefit from slow roasting.

    According to my book: Slow roasting off the bone is 35 minutes per LB plus 35 minutes extra. at 180 F

    I don't think they're all cooking threads! Some of them I didn't cook anything. ;)

    In that case I've listed every thread that came close to cooking or used a word that could have or may suggested you were or were not thinking about cooking or possibly or possibly not about to cook or just had some random question about ingredients. .... and breath :)

    That would get me nearer to two hours. :think:


    The creme brulees are in the oven. Seemed quite easy, so I've probably done something wrong. :p
