Preparation Tips
Goat meat should be cooked slowly at low temperatures to maintain tenderness. It can be braised, stewed, or roasted. For best results, marinate the meat before cooking to enhance flavor and tenderness. Cook to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for well-done.
