Smoking Goat meat, any pointers?

[hakamo0o]

Hello all,

I am planing on smoking half a goat this weekend, this will be my first time with goat meat.

I was wondering if there is anything I should take care of during this process and if it is much different from smoking beef or veal?

Cheers,

Check moikel's threads...  He's an Aussie and does goat often...  Depends on it's age....  Cook med. rare for a young goat, braise for a tough goat... use lots of herbs and spices and cook like you would a butt to pull or like you would a brisket..  East Indian spices go well with goat...

that is helpful, thank you.

I think I will use the rub that they use in Oman, it was very tasty.

I will translate it and post it here this weekend.
