leg of goat

If you remember last fall I butchered a goat.  You can read about it here.  I had a leg left so I make a roast.

I made up my own recipe

1 leg of goat
1 orange
1 meyer lemon
1 c. kombucha ( I  had it so why not)
cover with onion (about 6)[my moms fault she uses onions on everything]
sea salt
pepper
thyme
rosemary

I cooked it in the oven at 350 for 4 hours

This was so good and tender.  I enjoyed it but my boys didn't.  No surprise there they don't really enjoy any meat.

Time to Kombucha

I have learned how easy it is to make kombucha so here I go.
First you need a scoby or mushroom. I aquired mine at the westin price conference from an amish family.

step 1: make tea I used 3 qts of water 4 tea bags and 1c. sugar.
step 2: cool to room temp
step 3: add scoby (that is what is floating in the tea)
step 4: cover with a breathable cloth (beware fruit flies love this)
step 5: wait 2 to 3 weeks to stop fermenting



step 6: take scoby out and strain
all done

of course I wanted fruit flavors so I fermented a second time
this bottle is sweet cherries from the freezer


next I just added the plain kombucha back and let ferment for a couple days. I then strained and put in the fridge.

we did 2 flavor and one plain

plain, cherry, raspberry

I liked the cherry best. Jeffrey liked the raspberry. Jordan not so much.
Health note do not take more than 4 oz it is a very strong probiotic
