![]() What does ordering a whole goat mean? Are you literally getting the whole goat? No, not quite. Not sure if you have the freezer space? No need to worry, I’ll break it down for you here. Essentially, you’re ordering your meat in bulk. But, if the thought of having a lot of meat is intimidating, don’t worry. I totally understand the concern. Buying goat in bulk is not as much as you might think. In fact, it fills up about a standard reusable grocery tote bag, just a little over 20 pounds of meat. Why bulk? Bulk saves you money, and time by paying for all of the cuts of meats at once versus purchasing a few cuts of meat at a time, over time (I'm not a big fan of regular shopping, maybe you aren't either. I'd rather spend my time doing other things, like eating good food). What does a whole goat include? What type of cuts can I expect? It will be cut into traditional meat cuts, the same as a lamb, this includes ground meat, leg, shoulder roast, shoulder steaks, chops, rack or rib chops, ribs, shanks, stew meat (curry cubes) and an option for organ meat (liver, heart, tongue and kidney), as well as bones. The picture on this blog post gives you an idea of the quantity of meat. All the meat is vacuum sealed and frozen for freshness. How does the pricing work? You’ll pay a set price per pound based on the hanging weight, plus the processing fee from the butcher. A deposit is required when placing an order. Final payment is due at the time of pick up. (Hanging Weight x Price per Pound) + Processing Fee = Final Price
