I picked up a 6lb semi-bone in leg of lamb and its my first time cooking one in a smoker.  Anyone out there have any recipe suggestions? and/or any tips on the smoking process of it?

Thank you for your suggestions and happy holidays!

I did one last month and used a SPOG (Salt Pepper Onion Garlic) rub. It was great. Though next time I may try to blend in some dried, chopped mint leaves since people usually compliment lamb with mint jellies and such.

Bone in legs are fun b/c you can really see how far the meat draws back on the bone while it cooked. Good luck!
