We supply 100% Australian Farm Raised Goat Meat. Goat Meat is a lean, healthy alternative to red meat. Low in fat and cholesterol content, similar to Lamb in how you would use and prepare it. Goat meat has been part of the diet of people in most parts of the world for thousands of years. Recent research indicates that the goat was the first animal domesticated by humans. It is still the most widely eaten meat in the world.

Goat meat is lean and has nutritious qualities consistent with what health experts regard as a healthy meat alternative, particularly due to its low fat and cholesterol content. Australian goatmeat has a firm texture with flavour profiles from mild to strong depending upon the age of the animal, creating an ideal meat for spiced or slow-cooked dishes. It is versatile and can be readily substituted in most lamb or mutton dishes.

Dean's interest in goats began 22 years ago. Health problems meant Dean was unable to handle any sort of animal fat, so he began searching for a healthy alternative. So what started as a small side line to our small crop (Mango and Paw Paw) and cattle operation, has now grown into a thriving business, as many people have similar issues with other red meat. We now have over 200 goats and sell direct to the public as well as restaurants and cafes'.

Our farm is located 35km west of Gympie. Southern Cross Smallgoods supply quality goat meat in a variety of products, including delicious salami and gourmet sausages, along with a range of different cuts of meat. Visit our products page for the full range.
