   Recently I decided to try some Jamaican Curried Goat.
I've never had goat before so this was an interesting experiment.
In the end, the goat was very tender and IMO delicious.

Here's the recipe I used;

Ingredients

2 1/2 lbs. goat without bones or 3 lbs. with bones
1 lime
1 large onion, sliced
6 cloves finely chopped garlic
2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. dry thyme leaves
1 tsp. ground allspice 
1 Scotch bonnet pepper, or habanero pepper, finely chopped
2 tbsp. canola or vegetable oil

5 green onions (scallions), chopped
2 potatoes, cut into 1/2 inch cubes (the potatoes can be peeled or not)
2 tsp. curry powder 
2 cups water

Preparation
 Squeeze lime juice over the goat
Marinate the goat meat in a seal able container. Add the onion, garlic, salt, black pepper, thyme, allspice and Scotch bonnet pepper. Wearing rubber gloves, rub the spices into the goat with your hands. Refrigerate for a minimum of 1-2 hours. Marinating over night would be even better!
In a large skillet, heat the oil and brown the goat meat
Once browned, place the goat pieces into the crock pot
Add the marinade, green onions and curry to the crock pot along with the water
Cook the goat for 8 hours
About 4 hours into the cooking time, add the cubed potatoes. This will prevent them becoming too soft
Serve with rice
