Combine pomegranate juice, mustard, garlic. Completely submerge lamb in marinade. Marinate for 2-3 days. Remove lamb from marinade, save marinade. Place lamb in oven-proof dish, place in preheated 350 oven. Roast for 1 hour, 15 minutes. Let lamb rest outside the oven for 15 minutes before serving. As soon as the lamb is in the oven, strain the marinade twice through a fine mesh sieve. Place in small saucepan, bring to a boil, simmer for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Serve with sliced lamb.
