Ingredients:

Serving

4 -5 lbs boneless leg of lamb
1 cup herb cheese spread (pre-packaged , or 1 that you make from cream cheese and butter)
2 cups cabernet sauvignon wine
thyme
garlic, minced (to taste)

Directions:

Fillet the leg of lamb on a cutting board and pound it flat with a meat mallet or rolling pin.
Spread the cheese mixture on the inside of the meat (fat goes on the outside) with a rubber spatula or large spoon.
Roll roast back into pill shape, place back into netting or tie together with twine.
Place in a large serving dish, or gallon size zipper bag and pour in wine. Let marinate for 1-2 hours in refrigerator, turning at least once.
Remove roast from fridge and allow to come to room temperature, sprinkle with thyme and rub with minced garlic.
Heat grill to 325°F.
When grill is hot place the roast directly over the fire and sear for 4-5 minutes per side.
After searing, set the roast to the side of the fire (indirect heat) for the remainder of the cooking time.
Cook 25 min/lb for medium doneness at 300-325°F.
Remove from heat and allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving.
