    Autumn goat hunting

    Now the days are a little cooler its much easier in the steepest areas that goats prefer, covering ground in the pursuit of the best protein a sweet curry ever enhanced.

    Starting in the thicker stuff the .223 and i pushed on, fresh sign underfoot a promise of things to come



    Snuck past this fella




    Bit of deer sign to lift the "keen" a bit




    Then the 60g NBT @3200fps starting doing its job



    Pop thud


    Pop thud



    Pop thud


    Pack filling fast with 14 lil legs in it, thanks Bahco



    Cant wait to try these in a curry with chopped onion on a bed of rice





    Who else is dealing to a few goats now that the roar is done ?

    And whats your fav way of cooking/serving them up

    I hear you @223nut goats are thin on the ground in Canterbury. Miss the Waitomo district where we would get 20-100 for an afternoons shoot.

    good stuff...personally the hedgepig would have been given a boot or a heel squashing on way past....being out in daylight its probably crook and they disease carrying not to mention egg stealing wee naasties.
    try roasting your leg of goat just as you would mutton...be even better if you have wee fatty pork roast in beside it.

    Just had goat curry tonight!

    1.6kg cubed goat meat
    1 Tbl spoon curry powder
    1 t spoon black pepper
    2 t spoon Italian herbs
    1 t spoon smoked paprika
    2 Tbl spoon flour
    Salt and a splash of olive oil.
    In the slow cooker for about 7 hours on low.

    Served with rice, fresh veg and a nice home made loaf of wholemeal bread. If you haven't tried the "no kneed bread" method of making bread I seriously recommend you give it a go.
    The above fed 6 and I have just enough left over for lunch tomorrow.

    Question: Why do you bother carrying out the full leg with all the added weight of the bone and skin? Personally I carry a heavy gauge of plastic bag and bone out the meat in the field. That way it comes home nice and clean and you don't have another job to do when you get home, or have to dispose of the bone/skin.

    They are not heavy and I wanted to cover ground as fast as possible before it got dark, once it's dark back at the ute I can take my time and bone out the legs nicely. The ute deck gets washed with disinfectant every Friday arvo in prep for the weekend so quite a clean place to prep meat.
