Easter is traditionally the beginning of Spring for many people and therefore the first good cookout weekend of the year. This is also a big food weekend filled with
ham,
lamb,
turkey and
prime rib, so this is the perfect time to fire up your
grill or
smoker and make a great meal. Remember that anything you can roast in your oven can be cooked outdoors for more flavor, more fun and more cooking space. This list represents the most popular recipes for last years Easter, a good place for you to get started.

This is a classic, rotisserie
leg of lamb with a great marinade, which will result in a perfect, boneless lamb leg, great for any occasion.
This is a classic Greek style rotisserie leg of lamb. A great meal for any occasion or holiday, such as Easter. This lamb is so good you'll want to celebrate Tuesday with it.

This Greek-style marinade can be applied to any meat, but is particularly good on lamb. Let the meat marinade for a while so the flavors can infuse.
This is a re-smoke recipe. This means that you take a fully cooked ham, give it a flavorful coating, and cook it again over indirect heat on your grill for a few hours. This adds flavor to an already prepared ham.
This is not the kind of ham you think it is. This recipe calls for a fresh (or uncooked, uncured) ham. This means that what you are going to get is a great pork roast with a ham-like flavor and texture. This won't be anything like the hams you get at the store.
