Every year for my birthday my mom makes Souvlaki for my birthday (I was born in Athens, Greece). She makes some with pork and some with mutton, and the ones with mutton are my FAVORITE
I've tried mutton cooked several different ways & so far the only way I like it is when it's souvlaki.
Now goat, I love, love goat. My favorite is smoked or grilled leg of goat.
As far as raising them...I had lambs for 4H one year and really didn't like them, mainly because they were brain dead & always soo loud, if my mom would have let me quit, I would have...instead I traded for a pig. Didn't try showing them again after that and concentrated on Hampshire hogs after my bad go around with lambs....
I say if you do decide on sheep, just get a few, try out a variety of recipes then decide if you want to expand or not.
One thing I am curious about is how you house sheep & goats together is their mineral needs are so different?
Best Wishes,
