I have heard great things about goat. I have heard that it is leaner than chicken and turkey and great for Protein.< /p>

Does anyone know how to cook it? Any good recipes?

Goat is very good, especially if you're able to get it from the farm. Goat dairies often sell their extra billies at around six months. Goat is lean, not marbled, and easy to digest. It is not necessarily a tender meat, and is best in sausages or used in place of ground beef.

We use goat meat (and have for years) instead of beef, in all recipes that call for ground beef. You have to treat it carefully though, because it doesn't have the fat. I brown it in a non-stick frypan, and use a little Water to keep it from sticking until it's brown. Then I proceeded just like I would with ground beef.

My sister and her husband owned a goat dairy near Camrose, AB, and we got goat sausages every fall. In order to make them edible (no fat problem) they added 1lb of ground pork to every 9lbs ground goat. We eschewed the pork and added ground moose, elk, or buffalo. Totally YUM.

P.S. Here in the Middle East, goat is readily available, but it's from adult animals. Gross. Gross. Gross.

Does she have an online store or anything where she can ship to Calgary? I have had a hard time finding it at any butchers here in Calgary.

Let me know, I am really interested in trying it!

You need to look up Jamaican, west indian or maybe middle eastern recipes for goat, it could be too spicy for you not sure on your palate when my best friend makes it or I used to get it from the west indian take away it has a kick I can handle but you can go easy on some of the ingredients if your not too keen on food with a kick when your making it yourself.

thanks now i wish i could have some ox tail or brown chicken or maybe a little curried goat lol

Unfortunately not. She and her husband now have a ranch in Northern BC bigger than most European countries. You could try http://alberta.kijiji.ca/f-meat-goats-Classifieds-W0QQKeywordZmeatQ20goats

This is where my sister now gets her goat meat. :P

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
