Shop NowSimple slow cooker recipe for pulled wild goat, by Alesha Tomasi.
This pulled goat recipe is super simple, super delicious, and super satisfying. 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.
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 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
Pulled Goat
Turn the slow cooker on low
Skin the goat legs (if you haven't already) and place them into the slow cooker whole
Cut onion into chunks and add to slow cooker
Pour in the pomegranate juice
Add in the can of chipotle pepper in adobo sauce
Add in the herbs and spices
Leave to cook on low all day (6-8 hours)
Once it's cooked, use a fork to gently "pull" the meat so it's shredded
Flat Bread
Add all the ingredients into a bowl and mix together to form a dough
Divide into six dough balls and roll them out flat, roughly into a circle or oval shape
Heat up a frypan to a medium heat and add in your preferred oil or butter
Cook each flat bread for about 30 seconds per side.
To Serve
I added coleslaw to the flat bread, followed by the pulled goat meat on top, with a dollop of Greek yoghurt and parsley. However, you can add whatever toppings and sauces you like. Simply wrap it all up in the bread and enjoy!
