We use the Weber all year round. Our favourite barbecued thing is a butterflied leg of lamb, marinated in kefir, Ras al Hanout and olive oil. It takes only about 25 minutes plus resting to cook to medium rare and is totally delicious.
Second favourite is a thick T-Bone steak, brushed with olive oil and cooked to medium rare, served with miso butter or blue cheese or tarragon butter.

My go to is butterflied leg of lamb marinated in lemon, garlic and rosemary, with a warm potato, lemon and pea salad and at this time of the year some chargrilled asparagus.
Or we do a buttermilk and herb marinated butterflied chicken, a green salad (often with some haloumi cooked on the bbq) amd some kind of pasta/rice/quinoa/tabouli type salad.

Yes, I butterfly my own lamb and chicken, it's not a difficult skill to learn, I learnt from a butcher but you can download YouTube vids that show you how. The lamb is boneless but the chicken has bone in, but it does make for easier handling, quicker and more even cooking and easier carving.
Yes, haloumi on the flat plate, try it marinated in lemon, grain mustard, mint and some oil. It only takes a few minutes, put it on top of a rocket salad, with pomegranate arils, chopped fresh dates and some fresh mint chopped through, and a lemon/oil vinaigrette.

Yes, butterflied lamb leg is boneless and more or less the same thickness all over. I know how to butterfly the lamb but lately we've found a butcher who provides beautiful young lamb butterflies perfectly butchered ( a lot neater than my efforts) so we pay the extra for the quality and convenience. It's not that hard to do though, and the bones make a lovely lamb stock which can be frozen for use in soups and casseroles.

Thanks guys, my mouth is watering.
A funny conversation with my 5year old. He for some strange reason kept asking for some lamb to eat. I had some tender pieces in my freezer so quickly pan fried it for him with rosemary and garlic and he ate the lot.
He then asked me if he'd just eaten a cute baby lamb LOL, I had to answer honestly and said YES.
I think taste got the better of him as he was ok with the answer. ;-)

Well, he was probably thinking of lambs that look like this [www.radionz.co.nz]
whereas, at slaughter age, they generally look more like this (what we think of as sheep...) [www.sheepcentral.com]
