Looking for a recipe for barbque goat, grilled or smoked….

Richard Bradley Dig a hole in the ground, 4 ft. deep, burn mesquite wood down to coals about 6-8 inches deep. Slather the goat with whatever sauce you like. Wrap goat in wet burlap and dump a lot more sauce on the goat. Cover with piece of tin and fill hole with dirt. Wait 8 hours and the cabrito is super ready. Good luck.
Joanna Stringer Goff Ok Richard, thanks, where do I get the burlap? Dad used to do this in the ground like that but I have lost the recipe.
Richard Bradley Feed store has burlap bags, probably even find some in Hardware stores i.e. Lowe’s. …. But the real question is do you even have a place you could did the hole? Or would ? LOL you probably will have to stick to more newer conventional cooking equipment.
Serena Adkins Ellison what is the name of this Goat recipe Richard???
Joanna Stringer Goff Richard we have a friend with a cabin on the beach or in the beach area. We want to do the goat out there. Dad used to fix it this way and I thought he used cheese cloth but I told my friend about the burlap and we are doing it the cowboy or Carlsbad way! @Sernea I don’t think there is a name, when Richard and I were growing up in NM most folks had goat for Christmas. “in the ground cabrito”…so delish..
Serena Adkins Ellison I want to put this post on my website.. what should I put for the heading so when we look it up? Smoked Goat?
Joanna Stringer Goff Smoked Goat sounds good Serena…sure brings back the memories.
friends Jana and Jeb says its a small house, in NM its a cabin!

I would LOVE some of your smoked goat….

Richard Bradley Come down to Carlsbad, New Mexico. We are 150 miles north of Jurarez, Mexico. I will fix you some cabrito. Or we could smoke it in the smoker. But you have to have it fresh.
Serena Adkins Ellison does it spoil easily
Richard Bradley Not after its cookedk, but it can sure dry out easy.
Richard Bradley Makes for a real tough jerky.
Serena Adkins Ellison we just made jerky… deer jerky
Joanna Stringer Goff Richard I just saw part of what dad wrote and it says underground pit cooking….you are right about the burlap….he used some wire to wrap….some of his pages are missing….We ate on it all week, took it out of the ground of course….with company takes a few goats…
Serena Adkins Ellison I want you guy’s to know I have enjoyed this post immensely!!!
