cabrito

Roasted baby goat

Cabrito is young goat meat, typically from a kid slaughtered before weaning.

The Spanish word is used in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine, where cabrito is often slow-roasted over an open flame or pit-cooked: We ordered cabrito al pastor at the restaurant in Monterrey.

The meat is tender and mild, prized in northern Mexico and South Texas.
