What is Goat Meat Good For?
Goat works in almost any dish where you'd use beef or lamb. Ground goat makes great burgers, chili, and tacos. Cubed goat is ideal for curries and stews. Loins, chops, and racks are great on the grill. Slow-braised shanks and shoulders turn fall-apart tender.
Does Goat Meat Taste Gamey?
Not ours. Our goat is domestically raised and never aged, so it has a milder, cleaner flavor than imported goat. Most first-timers say it tastes like a richer, leaner version of beef. Every cut is also USDA inspected and Zabiha halal certified.
