Where's the goat?

Goat FarmA reader writes to say he's having trouble finding something at the Baltimore Farmers' Market.

"A couple weeks back I read on Dining@Large that there would be goat meat for sale at the Baltimore Farmer's Market but I've been the past three weeks and I haven't seen it. Any word?"

The goat meat, from Washington County's Many Rocks Farm, is for sale in an area of the market created last year for crafters, across Holliday Street from the main market.

Other food vendors that are new to the market this year, including the bicycle-smoothie stand Wheely Good Smoothies, are over there, too.

So those of you who've never taken an interest in the crafts might want to check that area out for the food.

Check the city Halal markets, there's five that i know of in the Remington/Charles village/Waverly area.

Although I'm not 100% sure about goat, I have gotten whole lamb from Koko Market on Eastern Ave & Dundalk Ave. 6020 Eastern, I think.

While I'm not 100%, I will say I'm 89% sure they have goat.

Call ahead, and you will have to get there early if you want it whole.
To quote the person I spoke with last year about the lamb:
"If you want it whole, come before 9. After 9, it won't be whole. I start cutting at 9."

The goat meat is across the street in the craft bazaar.

While I was purchasing goat sausage from Many Rocks this weekend at the mkt, Woodberry Kitchen was placing an order for goat meat to serve at the restaurant. I can't wait to see how they prepare it.

It was extremely interesting for me to read the post. Thanx for it. I like such topics and everything connected to them. I definitely want to read a bit more on that blog soon.
