Chow Speaking of Goat…

onThis one’s for the traumatized kids.
I’m fortunate to have amazing friends who happen to make amazing food. Last night, in celebration of my friend Christina’s 30th birthday, a whole goat was roasted over a spit. The meat was fantastic—perfectly fired and charred on the outside, soft and moist and bloody on the inside. I don’t know why, but I expected this goat to taste a little gamier than it actually did. No matter, though—it reminded me of pork, which is the highest compliment I can give to a meat.
Perhaps my favorite part of the evening was seeing folks, particularly the birthday girl’s father, walking around with a large leg of meat, casually chewing on it. (I also saw dad put a leg in a bag to take home). I love how a big, meaty goat leg bone will turn the most staid and handsome men into primal, ravenous beasts.
I don’t know where you can get roasted goat (any tips?) at a restaurant in town, but there’s nice, serviceable and tasty goat curry at Casuelita’s. If you go and try it, I’d love to know what you think.

For those of us who grew up in Montana, Texas, or BC, this is not that unusual.
My, you city folk are funny.
Now, you want a taste sensation, try some squirrel.
those guys are hot. can we see their calves?
I'm pretty sure you can get a whole roasted goat at that morroccan place next to the Viceroy.
You can get roasted goat at Waid's. It's at 1212 E Jefferson.
Oh..
And it's delicious, like all of the food at Waid's.
Sheep go to Heaven,
Goats go to Hell.
Not exactly goat, but I had some wild boar at a backyard concert at Brad's Swingside cafe recently.
BBQ Wild Boar sammich is the best.
A Greek butcher would oblige you, I imagine.
The goat at Waid's is good...but I wish I knew of other places around town with goat on the menu.
The Somali place across from the Arco at 23rd and Cherry has WONDERFUL goat.
