I accompanied the meat and potatoes with a Tabouli salad made the day before (bulger wheat, parsley, red peppers, yellow peppers, green peppers, tomato, green onions, lemon, oil, salt and pepper). Amazing if I don't say myself.
This is where we, Rod and Traci, will write about our adventures in running, biking, hiking, kayaking, geocaching and eating during our weekends in Blue Ridge. Also, Rod will talk about his travels around the country where his work takes him.

Slow Roasted Greek Lamb
While the Wifey is off on a girls weekend to the cabin, I thought it would be very masculine to try and cook something new. It is pretty hard to go wrong when you slow roast a leg of lamb for 5 hours at only 300 F. I seasoned the meat with salt, pepper, chunks of garlic and sprigs of oregano. I then basted the lamb with a third of a cup of lemon juice. After cooking covered for a couple of hours, I introduced wedges of potato and continued cooking for a couple more hours covered. Finally, I removed the cover and let cook for a little longer. No cutting the meat from the bone necessary - it just fell off.
