Fadi has truly perfected the art of roasting a whole lamb bbq, from the way he cuts and skewers it, to the marinade, to the roasting technique, to perhaps the most genius of all - how he chops it up with spices, mixing and matching meat with fat, and feeds it to you! #Lebanon #LebaneseFood #bbq It all began at Taanayel Ecolodge one beautiful afternoon. We started with the whole fresh lamb, where Fadi began making cuts to hold in the marinade and so the roast would be even. One of the most unique parts of this experience was having Fadi slice up the raw testicles, and eating them in a bit with sweet pepper and mint. Marinade - The marinade was a combination of yogurt and spices, including lots of sumac, and not totally sure what else. He rubbed lemon and the marinade all over the lamb before covering it in foil and lighting the fire. Fade mentioned to me that the secret was in the hand roasting of the lamb - not using a machine to roast evenly - he said a lamb is not even, so you need a human to roast and turn to even out areas that need more heat and less heat. He’s mastered it. Hours later, the meat was caramelized, yet juicy and tender on the inside. Probably the most interesting, unique and amazing technique is when the lamb is ready, he slices of strategic part of the lamb, including mixtures of meat and fat, and chops them together, mixes with lemon juice, sumac, salt, and pepper, wraps each bite of meat in bread, and feeds you. Fadi told me he’s even fed the President of Lebanon! It was truly some of the best single bites of meat I’ve ever had in my life. Unbelievable combinations, spices, and flavors. It was a once in a life-time bbq whole lamb experience.
