If you haven't tried wild goat before, you're missing out. Goat is said to be the most widely-eaten meat in the world and, here in New Zealand, we have an abundance of wild goats that cause considerable damage to our native flora. So by eating wild goat, you're not only supporting conservation, you're also getting highly nutritious, good-quality meat that's probably better for you than the stuff in the supermarket. Alesha whipped this pulled goat recipe up in her slow cooker. It's as easy as chucking all the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning and then whipping up the flat bread just before dinner. --- ## What Does Wild Goat Taste Like? I'm tempted to say goat meat tastes "like chicken" like everything else, but it really doesn't. Goat meat generally tastes **quite mild, slightly sweet and earthy, but less gamey than wild venison and lamb**. It generally has less fat content than lamb and venison so it can be a bit tough or dry if you overcook it, which is why using the slow cooker is a good option for retaining moisture, tenderness, and flavour. It also has a less greasy mouth feel than lamb due to it being less fatty. Goat meat is often compared to mutton (older sheep), which is pretty accurate. The flavour of goat meat can vary depending on what they've been grazing on, the age of the animal, and whether they're rutting during mating season (male goats can get a bit stinky during this time, similar to stags). If you cook goat meat right, it can be just as good as any other meat and it's widely used around the world in curries, stews, and other dishes. --- ## Pulled Wild Goat with Flat Bread Recipe ### ### **Ingredients** **Pulled Goat** - 1 onion - 2 goat back legs (might need more if it's a small goat) - 500ml pomegranate juice - 200g of Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (available in a can at most supermarkets) - 1 tsp paprika - 1 tsp garlic powder - 1 tsp cumin - 1 tsp ground sumac - 1 tsp mixed herbs - Salt and pepper to taste **Flat Bread** - 1 cup Greek yoghurt (can be dairy free) - 1.5 cups Edmonds self raising flour (can be gluten free) - 1 tsp garlic herb salt ### ### **Recipe Instructions** **Pulled Goat** 1.
