Set up your smoker as per the manufacturer’s instructions and preheat to 225 – 250 F. Add your choice of wood chips per the specifications of the manufacturer.

Liberally rub all sides of the lamb with seasonings blend. Either mix one with salt, pepper and oregano (all to taste) or use your favorite.

Place the lamb directly onto the grill/smoker rack, fat side up. Smoke. Replenish the charcoal and smoking wood as needed to continue smoking in the 225 – 250 F range.
