Its got some pretty good recipes in it above and beyond the old goat curry. We eat a lot of goat and its been good to add a bit of variety.

The Jerk marinade with appletons rum has been pretty popular.

Nothing wrong with goat meat eat a lot of it myself off goat hunting tomorrow :drool::drool:

My fridge is pretty full of it now..... ;-)

Must do the full goat butcher one day, I usually just do the back legs, shoulder and back steaks in the field. Doesn't take long to fill your backpack up!

There's a few chop recipes in that book that look pretty good.

I only ever shoot 3 goats max; that way I can bring everything out :)

A goat ham cured in a standard salt and sugar cure for 3-weeks. Now rolled in a dry rub of garlic, mustard seeds, chilli flakes and coriander and left to cure for another 5-days in the fridge before it receives a light smoking....Attachment 106704

Goat ham looks awesome.

My go to lately has been butterflying the back legs and doing a mexican or tandoori marinade for a few days then grilling them on the charcoal bbq. Chop them up and chuck them in tacos.

How long do you roast the stuffed shoulders for? I generally do them on the bone wrapped in tinfoil with some sort of marinade and slow cook them in the oven while I'm at work.

Usually slow for about 3-hours. Often I brown them off and do them in the slow cooker

I shove mine through the dog. I need to spend some time finding good recipes for it. Not a fan of it neat.

Rolled seasoned goat shoulder. Browned in the frying pan before being slow cooked on top of 4 goat shanks, goat bone stock and tinned tomatoes. That's tea sorted for the next 4 or 5 days..... ;)

I love 'Rolled seasoned goat shoulder', one of my favourites:)

I'm trying to do the self sufficiency thing so goats are a great protein source. I have got access to "easy" deer but then get the "It's ok for you; you can hunt deer on farms" comments. So I make a point of hunting goats on DOC land so I can throw it back at them; that anyone can hunt on that land if you get off your arse..... I write for a living so have to walk the talk as I write about these subjects.... Goat is incredibly underrated; and I really get sick of the "They make a good curry" comments. You can pretty much do anything with goat that you can with lamb/hogget/mutton, :)
