Grabbed a loin section at IGA just now.Will follow the recipe from jerk chicken then do it over charcoal on the weber. Its actually capretto or kid whole leg was maybe 3 1/2 lb a little guy like that should be pretty tender. I get on the qview later,hot day here maybe 28c got some other stuff to do first.

I assume you mean this.Little capretto was only 8kg whole or 17lb to you guys.If it gets marked down on monday morning there will be a stampede of nonna"s trying to get it. This sold as mid loin,not cheap but hard to make $ on a carcsass tharsmall

Stuck to recipe except pineapple juice,just x2 the lime,1x green shallots 2x red shallot, the scotch bonnets I  had in freezer were red.I use them mostly in a curry paste I  make that has its origins in the East Indian migrants to Jamaica.Will let it sit now for 4hours then grill it on weber.
 
Looking forward to your outcome on this.I don't eat it often,last time was  Jerrys last year at the north Florida gathering.
 
Going to have to hold this over until tomorrow running out of time tonight. trying to do throw down entry at same time.Extra time in marinade wont hurt .Have a bunch of appetizers to eat.

Back on course. I am going to put it in MES  after all,I cant spare time to  tend to it on weber.2 hours at 100c will mean pulling it at 7 pm. Dont do a lot of Caribbean food here . Our turn to go there to play cricket this year.Die hard fans go for the full tour about 8 weeks. Will serve this with flat bread,salad ,dirty rice. Traditional as best I can tell. Curry goat a really big deal,in the West Indian communities in England.That I  can cook but its not smoked.You can also go up a size in goat from this tiddler I got here.

OK  got it done. Little less than 2 hours. Stayed pink ,moist but it was  a close thing.Not much fat to keep it moist.Its tender ,no contest. Great recipe

got a bit of sting with those scotch bonnets ,thyme  gives it  deeper flavour.I think grill

ed over charcoal would also be a winner but you would have to watch capretto this small like a hawk ,baste it & pull it early. MES gave me time to duck out & scrounge 200 pre 1900 bricks out of a construction dumpster around the corner. $ 1.50 each at the restoration yards old habits die hard

Scotch bonnet/habanero didnt get to this country until maybe the late 90s. They grow really well in our tropics. I like them but not much margin for error. If I  can grab a leg in the markdown section on monday I will knockout an authentic curry goat. It is lovely meat doesnt have the smell of lamb that some people dont like.
 
 
Almost missed this one. Looks really good! I love curry goat, can't wait for that one!

The curry goat will be based on a curry paste from a habanero book I have  but tweaked a bit. Ive seen it done on TV by a guy called Bing who has a little diner called the Island Hut in Manchester England.  Best curry goat in Britain the locals say. I just need to get the right cut,shoulder & leg,off a bigger goat,at a better price. Curry goat if your West Indian,goat curry in India ,Sri Lanka ,Malaysia etc. OR I do have 5 lbs of Alpaca in freezer. Now there is a thought
