Oh you betcha! Lot's of em - lamb lover here. Last one I did I bought fresh mint and rosemary. I was able to buy them in very long sprigs (stems). Cleaned them in cold water - covered the outside of the leg with them - then wrapped them on with butchers string. Smoked in the smoker with apple wood (fruit woods seem to flavour best with lamb). Serve with mint/apple jelly or mint sauce or heck use a great british or irish chop sauce!
