So I've only cooked a leg of lamb one time years ago.  I loved it but the wife thought it was underdone and tasted gamey.

I think last time I did it I took it out at 115 degrees.  If I do another one should I let it get hotter?  Last thing I want is red wine and over cooked lamb meat!

Cook it the way you like yours. Finish a slice or two in the oven to where your wife likes it.

Yup, it'll continue to cook to ~145* - 150* which is medium rare.

Lay them out on the rack and put them back in in the oven for a couple of minutes.

Just cook the lamb to 140* trust me.. Just because somethings can be eater rare doesn't mean they should be. The texture and taste of lamb is best at medium rare which is 140*.
