Jumping in to say this exact same thing happened to me!! And have similarly NEVER been led astray by an AR recipe. I got a 5.5 lbs lamb leg for Easter Sunday. Didn't have a larger dutch oven so used my 5.5 Qt le Creuset pot and used less potatoes so it would all fit. Put it in a 275 Farenheit oven for 12 hours overnight (alongside the chickpeas) and when I woke up both were burnt and crispy. There was no liquid whatsoever remaining in the chickpeas and only about a cup of liquid remaining in the lamb. I have a gas oven (no convection).
Exactly. At the end of 11 hours, there was about 1 cup of liquid remaining.
