Mix first 6 ingredients in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Place lamb in a large glass baking dish. Rub mixture all over, cover and chill overnight.

Preheat oven or Green Egg to 450º. Uncover lamb and place on rack in large roasting pan. Roast 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350º and roast until thermometer reads 135º.
For a roast this will take about 1 hour 15 min. For the Green Egg it will take less for chops.

For Vinaigrette, mix all together and let sit at room temperature until ready to serve.
