Lamb is one of our favorites at Fogo! I tried this recipe and, while I am sure it's probably 5-stars, I could only give it 4 based on what I did (my own fault!). I didn't have the white wine so I used a not-so-nice red. It was good, but not as good as theirs, and since I could only rate it on MY experience, MY experience says I messed it up! Thanks for the recipe, we eat there weekly so making this and other favorites at home will save us money! (And I did confirm with them at our last visit, they do use a crisp white wine in the marinade).
