This was NOT what I was expecting.
A while ago, we helped an old neighbor with a job that he was doing. The "job" was harvesting a few of his meat goats. For me, it would be a chance to learn a new skill. For him, it would be an opportunity to get some help and speed up the process. If that were all that happened, it would have been time well spent.
HOWEVER...
The plan went well, and we took care of the animals together. I learned a lot on the first two, and he had me do the third one myself. Since he doesn't do anything with the hides, he also gave them to me so I could learn how to tan the hides, which was an added bonus. I thought that this was it. If it had been, it would have still been more than I had hoped for; not only did I get to learn, I also got some hides to tan.
Then, a few weeks later, we received a call. The man told me he needed me to pick up some of the goat meat. He claimed that he needed more freezer space. Now this was unexpected, and a blessing. I'm not one to turn down a giver, so I let the man bless us and came over to pick up the meat. Interestingly enough, we had never tried any goat meat before in our lives, so this would also be a new experience.
When I showed up, I was amazed. If I added all of the meat up, the man was basically giving us a full goat worth of meat. The is incredibly generous for sure. But, we already knew this man to be a generous one, as he had been the one who blessed us with our heifer, trading her to us for just three little piglets. That's the heifer in the photo above.
COOKING THE GOAT MEAT
Some of the goat meat was already ground, so 
While it is plenty tasty on its own, we mixed it up a bit by putting it in some corn tortillas and adding some salsa too! This makes one tasty taco for sure. This is one of the meals where you really need to make a lot of it in order to have leftovers! We cooked some more of the meat too, as featured in the cover photo, and that was delicious too.
It is interesting that with as popular as goat meat is around the world, we had never had any yet. It's not just because it is not on the fast food menu, but it is certainly not as popular some places in the USA. Obviously, to receive such tasty meat for free was a huge blessing, and we were very pleased to try out our first goat dinners.
As always, I'm
