Source for goat or mutton?

Post by RickG »

The goat stories from Miss Lucy's have me hungry. Are there any reliable sources for goat or mutton meat on STJ or STT?

Thanks, Rick

During our first trip to Turks and Caicos, there was a restaurant we liked that had a weekly curried goat night. My dad was in heaven.

Starfish usually has it frozen. We have used it for curried goat. Worked great!

If you're serious about getting fresh goat, stop at the Neptune Richards Laundromat at Susannaberg and ask for Iva Moses.I believe he still butchers fairly regularly, and that is, believe me, a good thing...St. John is in danger of massive destruction from introduced grazers, with goats and deer at the top of the list!
I could get into a discussion about unlimited growth, but it might be a little too political right now....

Hugo whats up with that huge heard in Coral Bay must be a hundred of them. Are they wild or someones herd just grazing around. If there wild maybe Rick could thin the herd a little. Heck they could get with Vie and have a forum beach bash Goat BB Que. Our friend in Jamaica made us curried goat and it was delish. It's all social conditioning anyone want some horse or dog just depends were your from :lol:

Rick, I'd ask Guy [pronounced: Gee] at Ms. Lucy's. He's the main chef and now part owner.

Thanks for the tips!!! I was looking to do curry so fresh or frozen works. I'll try for fresh first. I was thinking that it would be good with peas and rice and plantain.

Cheers, RickG

Kirk, the Coral Bay herd are SHEEP. Would you have wool if you lived here?
SHEEP tails go DOWN, goat tail goes UP, like so "!"
Yes, they belong to someone. You will note the little tags stapled to their ears.
They give someone a hefty real property tax exemption for Agricultural use of their property, only problem is, they are not on their property most of the time.
Other problem is that they have no other function than providing the exemption....
