Slightly cheaper than beef but even though they're getting them cheap they've still got to rear them organic.

And young male goats don't carry much meat tbh (and grow very slow), if I remember rightly they say they get about 120-130 burgers out of a whole goat and they have around 300 goats at one time.

The 2 guys do it all, rear, tend the farm, slaughter, prep, pack, marketing.

The profit margin is not massive but if it takes off in years to come as a widely accepted product (look at somebody's face when you say it's goat meat before they've actually tried it) it could get better.

Always thought goat meat was tough, I've only had it slow cooked in curries.

They're right smelly bastards though, the males. 300 of em must fookin honk

Yeah that's old Paki goat.

These guys slaughter at a certain age I think.

It's the difference between Lamb and Mutton, night and day.


Young goat is very sweet and super tender, it's amazing it really is.

The Kobe beef grading system.

 

[1stblood......]

yeah i thought there was a grading system, i member speaking with ya ages ago about it but wasnt too shore, that top graded steak is mega expensive! how was ya rump? ive had the wagyu fillet before was ok, just seems abit wasted on them cuts fillet n rump cause they dont generally have much marbling.

how was ya rump?

To be honest, I'm not impressed.


Average at best, I've got better tasting steak in the freezer from Keelham Farm Shop (Skipton).

And it's cheaper.

No it's not them, I'll recognise the site as soon as I see it.


There's a few places up here that do goat though.

 

[The Yorkshireman]

It's got a silly play on words name if I remember rightly.

That's nothing like what I've got, there's no marbling in this at all.

That looks awesome, this is a disappointment.

 

[The Yorkshireman]

Seems to be about a 6 or 7 that compared to the chart.

yeah i wasnt blown away by the fillet, its all about the fat content that gives it the better flavour and rump n fillet dont have hardly any fat.
