Worked there for 15 years & hit the street tacos once or twice a week. All the cabrito restaurants are now on this side due to the violence.
Mexico knows it's food...and tequila.
I wouldn’t mind having them as a vendor

My son in-law brought enough thin sliced kind of fatty steaks from Monterrey for 3 different parties, they were awesomely different too. You can get a Cabrito for 60 to 90 dollars, just ask, they can butcher it in front of you if you need confirmation Its fresh. Brand new Cabrito oven in the gazeebo but you have to get vaccinated to eat out of it Cabrito isnt for everyone but if your raised with it more than likely it will be used for special occasions. We have to cook more than one sometimes . I never had customs give grief over crossing Cabrito but you never know, I have a neighbor that keeps a freezer full Of them, I grew up in a meat packing slaughter house, the other side of the river the same family has a slaughter house in Reynosa that Is still running today that I have also visited many times. It is different set of rules, inspectors over here wont, dont, cant, allow certain things (like accepting animals into the plant that expired somewhere else) Different worlds for sure

Carnes San Juan is quality, one of the best Meat Market from Monterrey. The Cabrito is not what came in those boxes. He probably got the cabrito "baby goat" from a different place. Everytime I have family visiting from Monterrey, I ask them to bring me a box or two from Canes San Juan and Ramos Meat Market. I usually ask for 1" Ribeye and T-bone stakes.Last edited by RF76; 06-03-2021, 08:19 PM.

Its good stuff and a good excuse to light the pit and drink beer. I had assumed the taste came from being grass fed but I don’t know. At the party recently A primo took one bite and looked up at me and said the meat was from Mexico, so I asked where they bought the steaks and they were impressed he knew with one bite it was from Monterrey
