El Rey del Chivo: Chef Joe’s Goat
( Chef Joe not pictured, goat is)
Yep. I did it. It was a while back, and only for 2 mildly ravenous bites, but it was the only red meat I’ve had in a few years now, (minus one other mishap)
‘Twas at Murphy’s (mine Atlanta, Ga. place of employment) where this flick was taken, Ramon is prepping the goat for Chef Joe Schafer’s Super Bowl Party of 2008 – Pretty Gangster right? Joe has an in-ground Bar-B-Q pit in his backyard and cooked it for 8 or so hours – it was spiced Middle-Eastern style, and servedwith an absolutely banging Tabouleh, Cous Cous Salad with mint, lemon and cucumber, Pita/Hummous. Bomb. And my stomach didn’t hurt!
