How to Debone & Butterfly a Leg of Lamb for Fun and Profit

As promised, here's the video for how to debone and butterfly your own leg of lamb. Since I am going to save you a few dollars, when the butcher asks you if you want it deboned, I'd appreciate it if you said something like, "I watch Food Wishes, so I've got it covered." By the way, I was only half kidding about using a fat, dull knife.

Bored cooks have been known to do this with butter knives, steak knives, pairing knives, or any other knife they think would win them an after shift beer (I've heard from a friend). The point is, cooks drink a lot, and you don't need a razor-sharp blade to do this at home. So, if you're doing a whole leg of lamb this Easter, I hope you give this simple technique a try. Have a great holiday, and as always, enjoy!
