This was a total hit at Sunday lunch! The honey-mustard glaze was a perfect balance of sweet and tangy. Will definitely make again.

Loved the simplicity of this recipe. The lamb came out juicy and tender. I added some rosemary too, and it worked really well.

I used shoulder instead of leg and adjusted the cooking time—still came out amazing. The glaze is a keeper!

Easy to follow and great flavor. Might reduce the mustard slightly next time, but overall very tasty.
