Tesco Curry Goat
About 75% of the Goat content is bone and Gristle. Which is a shame because otherwise it is quite tasty.
I suppose this is what you get for buying a ready meal isn't it. Is this generally available at Tesco or is it a local ethnic speciality given that the store was in Ladywood, Birmingham? I've noticed that Tesco tends to have a wider range of ethnic grub in general. |

It's probably something that the rest of the coutry don't see too much of. I'm sure I read that Levi Roots had a curry goat ready meal out. |

Doesn't sounds too appetising.

Shame, good goat curry tastes delish.
BTW I think it varies from tesco to tesco. Our local one used to stock ethnic goods but stopped and I now have to travel to the tesco extra on the other side of town which still stocks the ethnic stuff. |

The only time I've ever had goat curry it was full of bones. That was from a caribbean restaurant as well.

It's very localised. My nearest big Tesco is in Brixton, and it has really good ethnic foods. I am sure however if you went to one in rural Hereford, for example, it would considerably less so.

Curried goat from local takeaway is delish. It has lots of bones in it aqs that is traditional. Lovely with rice n peas and some fried plantain.

I have not seen any goat meat on sale in any of our tescos or asdas
I would definitely try it if it was sold locally. |

Anyone visiting the Goose Fair should try it.
I assume any decent Caribbean takeaway also sells it though it is mainly made using mutton. |

I once asked why we don't eat more goat. I mean, the more people eat it, the more it will be bread, the cheaper it will be.
Apparently we don't have the terrain for it. Why don't the Brits eat more goat? |

That's odd I thought goats could live pretty much anywhere

Apparently goat is eaten by more people than any other meat. I have yet to try it but really want to. I wonder if Tesco Hull have it. There is a nice Caribbean takeaway in Hull I wonder if they sell it. Is it a sweet curry ?

Some people will have been on holiday and want to try it gain at home. This is the same attitude that Lasagne used to have "That foreign muck!" Now it is a staple of every ready meal brand there is. I was curious the other day to know when the UK first started eating curries - It seems the first Curry House was in 1810 so I suppose that is as close an answer I will get unless someone on here has any other |

Curried goat normally has bones. Must try it with a goat steak sometime. Very tasty. |
