Honey Is One of the Oldest Foods
Honey is one of the oldest foods in existence. It was found in the tomb of King Tut and was still edible since honey never spoils.

Cut twelve 1/2 inch slits in lamb. Insert garlic halves in slits. Combine mint, pepper and salt. Rub over entire surface. Drizzle honey over lamb and rub in to coat. Place in a roasting pan, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Roast approximately 1 hour for medium rare or until meat thermometer registers 140°. Cover meat loosely with foil and let stand for 15 minutes before carving.
