Goat Meat
Our delicious and lowfat goat meat is for sale by the whole and half carcass. We do not sell by the cut at this time.
The goat carcass is different from the lamb carcass, being much leaner and having only little subcutaneous and muscular fat. Otherwise, the bone structure and muscle position may be quite similar. Therefore, in the absence of official charts on the anatomy and retail cuts of goats, it is suggested that lamb charts may serve a useful purpose when processing.
