Whole Goat
Bring home the rich, distinctive flavor of locally raised goat, custom cut to fit the way your family cooks. A Whole Goat from Homestead Natural Meats gives you the flexibility to choose the cuts and packaging that work best for your kitchen, whether you prefer chops, roasts, stew meat, or ground goat. We’ll walk you through the cut sheet step by step, making it simple to build the right mix for your family’s meals.
What You’ll Receive
A whole goat typically yields about 24–35 lbs of take-home meat once processed.* Your order may include a mix of:
Shoulder – Bone-in shoulder roast, shoulder chops, stew meat, or grind.
Loin – Loin chops or loin roast, depending on the size of the animal.
Ribs/Rack – Whole rack, rib sections, or chops when size allows.
Leg – Left whole as a roast or cut into leg steaks.
Neck, Breast, and Shanks – Ideal for slow cooking, stew meat, or grind.
Additional Options – Cubed goat, stew meat, or ground goat based on your preferences.
Because every family cooks differently, your order is fully customizable. Goat carcasses are smaller than beef or pork, so the exact size and number of cuts will vary from animal to animal. Whether you want more bone-in cuts for slow cooking or more grind for everyday meals, we’ll make sure your goat is cut and packaged to match your preferences. For more info and cut sheets click here.
