How To Get Rid Of Goat Meat Smell

If you’ve been around a farm that had goats, you will know that the billy (male) goats stink to the highest heavens! Unfortunately, this translates to the meat as well, so if you are going to eat a male goat, it will stink.

If you are getting your goat from a butcher, ask for a female goat, as they do not stink as much. If you already have goat meat and you can’t stand the overwhelming smell, there is a way to save the situation.

Wash it thoroughly with salt water.
Create a simple marinade of olive oil, black pepper, garlic, oregano, curry, and salt. Mix together and rub on the goat meat and leave overnight in the refrigerator. The spices and flavors of the marinade will sink into the meat and counteract the smell of the goat meat.
Use in your recipe as desired.

🧾For the goat meat
• Goat meat: You can use any type of goat meat for this recipe. I LOVE to chew on roasted goat skin, but feel free to slice it off if it bothers you. You can also remove any small pieces of bone if you’d prefer.
• Onion: The sweetness of onions pairs really well with goat meat. I like to leave big chunks of onion.
• Bouillon powder: A stock cube will add flavor into every bite of the goat meat.
• Red pepper flakes: Use these to garnish and add a little heat.
• Salt: Add salt to taste.

For the sauce
• Olive oil: Use a little olive oil or vegetable oil to sautee the vegetables.
• Vegetables: I use red, yellow, and green bell peppers, onion, and habanero pepper.
• Seasonings: I use bouillon powder, paprika, black pepper, garlic, and salt in this recipe.
