Halal goat mince is minced goat meat, 100% goat with nothing else added, at 25% fat and Certified Halal. It cooks best low and slow, in curries, koftas and bakes. This mince has been frozen before and is sold defrosted.
Pack sizes
Choose 500g for a single family meal, 1kg or 2kg for bigger batches, or 4kg for batch cooking and caterers.
Is goat mince the same as mutton mince?
No. Goat mince is milder and drier-eating than mutton mince, so it suits slow, wet cooking more than a quick fry. Butcher's tip: break it up small as it browns so it colours evenly.
Shelf life of previously frozen mince
The meat is supplied to us frozen, then cut and defrosted by us before dispatch, so it normally reaches you defrosted. Keep it in the fridge and use it within 7 days of delivery, and do not freeze the raw mince again. Cook it into koftas or a curry first, and freeze the cooked result if you want to store it.
Choose by the meal: the 500g pack suits a single family curry or bake, the 1kg and 2kg packs cover bigger batches, and the 4kg pack is built for caterers or batch cooking, all cooked within 7 days of delivery.

Goat mince works well in kofta kebabs, keema-style curries and spiced meatballs, and in South Asian and Middle Eastern dishes where mince is simmered with spice rather than grilled whole. It also makes a good cottage-pie-style bake.
Spiced goat koftas: shape the mince onto skewers with warming spices, then grill or pan-fry until browned.
Goat mince curry: brown the mince first, then simmer low and slow in a spiced sauce until tender.
Cottage-pie-style bake: cook the mince with vegetables and top with mash for an oven-baked dinner.
How long does goat mince keep once it arrives?
Keep it in the fridge and use it within 7 days of delivery; it has been frozen before.
Can I refreeze the mince I do not use?
Not raw. Cook it into koftas, keema or a bake first, cool it quickly, then freeze the cooked dish.
Which pack size suits a family meal?
The 500g pack suits a single family curry or bake, while 1kg or 2kg suits bigger batches.
Should I buy the 4kg pack?
Only if you will cook it all within the 7 days: it is aimed at batch cooking or catering.
