Cabrito

Mutton rivaled beef in prominence until this century, and cabrito, or kid, remains a major food in Nuevo León.

Mr. Dean O. Smith, who is the game warden in the Dripping Springs area, barbecues the cabrito for us, and what a treat that is! Cabrito is a very young Spanish goat between one and a half and two years old.

Consuela and Sullivan had been cooking all night so there was plenty of beef and cabrito.
