I did a second lamb roast. Why, because this was to be the first one, but, the dry run ended up being a party so why not do it again and make it a party as well. We had 8 around the table this time. It was a glorious day, a bit hot, in the 90's, but the rain held off and we spend the evening outside eating lamb, drinking wine, and having a good time.

Just before taking "Pat" to the table |
Servet insisted that we name the animal. He named the last on Wanda, but I wasn't sure it if was a ewe or a ram, so we chose an name sure to confuse, Pat.
You know it was a good party when there are more empty wine bottles than people in attendance! One of the 8 was not drinking. Sooooooo....
I purchased back braces and a counterweight for the rotisserie. Back braces went in without a hitch and held the lamb really tight to the spit. The counterweight was a different story. I learned that the weight should be at the opposite end to the motor. Live in learn. There was still a hitch in the spinning which I had hoped the counter weight would solve. THere is always next time.
