Somewhere around winter and discovering The Goat Pie Guy pies, I wanted to cook goat for myself. Never having done so in the past I wasn't even sure where to find goat. That is until, I think it was Kelly W, posted a picture to instagram of her goat purchases from the PA Halal Butcher. Of course I jumped in the car and visited this south side butcher!
It's a sharp right turn just after the main intersection and just before Buranda shopping centre proper. And in the strip of local shops you'll find this butcher that as well as goat meat for curries and such stocks some ridiculously affordable other cuts of meat ($7.99 a kilo for lamb shanks, for example) and a few general grocery items like pasta etc.
