According to recent tests done here at Agriculture Canada in the Experimental Kitchens of Food Advisory Services it was found that roast of lamb is preferred well done at an internal temperature of 165F which gives a brownish grey color. Previous to this it was believed that lamb should be cooked to an infernal temperature of 180F. For medium done roast lamb a pinkish grey colour is desired and a reading on the meat thermometer for an internal temperature would be 145F. It was found that at both these temperatures the lamb was juicy and tender and preferred to the higher cooking temperatures. These roasts were cooked at an oven temperature of 325F. Why don't you try cooking your next roast at the new internal temperatures and see if you don't prefer it yourself. Remember that's 145F internal temperature for medium and 165F for well done.
