This is my version of Cabrito en Salsa Monterrey style. Hope you enjoy my crock pot recipe. I am always looking for ways to make meals in a crock pot. This is my husband's favorite. I prefer roasted/grilled Cabrito. This is a great way to have your meal waiting for you when you come home at the end of the day!

  • 2
    Add diced onion, bell pepper, celery, garlic, cumin and oregano to the pan with 1/2 cup of chicken broth to cook veggies and de-glaze the pan. When onions are translucent and other veggies are soft.
  • 3
    Add whole serranos to crock pot nestled in goat pieces. Add diced tomatoes with juices poured directly over the goat pieces to crock pot. Add sauteed veggies and any liquids in pan directly over tomatoes and goat pieces. Add enough chicken broth JUST to cover goat pieces. Save any extra chicken broth for another recipe. Place bay leaves on top and cover Cook on high for two hours and turn down to low for 2 or more hours OR cook on low for 6 - 8 hours. The meat should be very tender and will easily fall off the bone.
