Ingredients

1 (3 pound) bone-in leg of lamb, or more to taste
½ cup red wine
1 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons raw honey
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon fresh cracked pepper

Directions

Bring leg of lamb to room temperature, about 2 hours.
Pour wine into a slow cooker. Mix lemon juice, honey, mustard, garlic, vinegar, rosemary, thyme, sea salt, and pepper together in a bowl until a thick paste forms. Massage paste into the lamb using your hands; gently place into the slow cooker.
Cook on Low, without removing the cover, for 5 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 145 degrees F (65 degrees C). Let lamb rest for 15 to 20 minutes.

Tip

Aluminum foil helps keep food moist, ensures it cooks evenly, keeps leftovers fresh, and makes clean-up easy.
