goat recipes

We have at least 1/4 goat left in our freezer and I'm desperate for some new recipes. We usually cook it in curry sauce but we're getting pretty tired of that. Can anyone pass along a good recipe for goat? (Fwiw all the meat we have left is in 1" chunks - nothing big to roast). Thanks!

I would have thought any recipe that you could also cook with lamb would work. Shepherd's pie etc. Maybe look at Greek/Lebanese/Turkish recipes for ideas. Moussaka, kofta etc?

Goat Tacos! - you can probably just cook the chunks until they're soft instead of using a bone in roast.

Goat cooks the same as lamb. You could probably make a good stew out of it, if nothing else. Or maybe a shepherd's pie if you cook the meat and shred it.

Yeah--I get goat from the farm I buy from sometimes, and so far I've just used it as I would lamb and it works fine.

Sloppy Goats! Similar to sloppy joes, but with goat meat...totally delicious...just goat and some kind of tomato sauce in a crock pot, then slop it onto a bun to eat...also BBQ goat is also delicious on a bun, my family loves Sweet Baby Rays...any red meat recipe can be used for goat, just may need to add butter or oil as goat is much leaner than most other meats, so anything for beef or deer or rabbit would likely also work well for goat.

Bake it in the oven, with potatoes and lemon juice. Same as you would with a large chicken basically. Just make sure to use medium temperature, and bake covered until it is cooked, then uncover so it gets crispy on the outside, assuming you have the skin. If it is skinless, cook in the oven covered until the end (you can use just a tin foil to wrap your baking dish).
What I do sometimes is cut it in pieces about half a lb each, use a marinade of EVOO, lemon, crushed garlic and mustard, then place the pieces in a suitable dish, cover with foil and place it in the oven. It needs a couple of hours. I either add potatoes in the dish, or serve with salad or rice.
If you add potatoes, after about an hour uncover the dish, and remember to get the juice with a spoon and mix it with the potatoes every half an hour or so, so they become crispy but not dry.

Poor little goat. I love goats, they're delightful. I sincerely hope you all get headbutted by one some day ;-) I jest, I jest.

Try a jerk seasoning and grill it.
