Another feature of the justpigs blog will be a recipe exchange. One of the most important aspects of cooking and eating food is sharing. While we can't regularly cook for and eat with all of our friends and family, we can share some of our favorite recipes.

If you have ideas or are curious about how to cook something, let me know. I'll post it as a recipe exchange entry!

Ever had goat? Ever cooked goat? Recently, I purchased meat from half of a small goat. My friend Jim got the other half. Neither of us have ever cooked it before and are looking for ideas. We have both found some recipes online, but it would be nice to hear how other people have had it cooked or how they like to cook it.

From the little bit of research that I have done it seems that the best or most common way to prepare goat is to roast or barbeque it. I found two other recipes that look good:

Many people I have mentioned my goat purchase to have said, "Oh, I love goat!" So bring it people! I would especially love to see some traditional Greek, Spanish, or South American recipes. Oh, and African recipes too would be good! If you can, send a picture, with your comment or directly to my email.
