Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning during grilling.
Trim any excess fat from the lamb shoulder and cut the meat into small, even cubes of about 1 inch each.
Place the cubed lamb into a mixing bowl. Add olive oil, minced garlic, finely chopped rosemary, the juice of the lemon, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the lamb cubes thoroughly with the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Thread approximately 4 to 5 cubes of lamb onto each wooden skewer, leaving some space between each piece for even cooking.
Once the grill is hot, place the skewers on the grill, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Grill the lamb speducci for about 10-15 minutes or until the meat is cooked through and has a nice char.
Remove the skewers from the grill and allow them to rest for a few minutes.
Serve the lamb speducci warm, garnished with additional rosemary sprigs or lemon wedges, if desired.
