Bio

Hi. I'm James, owner of Cabrito Goat Meat. I was a professional chef in London for 12 years. In 2011, I moved home to Devon to take a job at River Cottage and through a series of co-incidences, luck and some entrepreneurial spirit my girlfriend and I started Cabrito Goat Meat. We sell male kids taken from the British dairy industry. These goats were previously a wasted resource, as in an overwhelming number of cases, these animals were euthanised at birth. We now sell to restaurants and catering butchers nationwide. We also do the occasional event...

WeFiFo at Waitrose with James Whetlor

The food was fine. Not exceptional. The evening could have benefited from some canapes to go with the fizz. The starter needed to have some bread with it but was only served once a few of us asked. Who was my host? Waitrose or the chef? The chef appeared for half a minute to tell us what the menu was. We had that written down in front of us so..... It would have been nice if he'd appeared after dessert which incidentally was the best part of the meal.

Excellent . Gave a good account of how the meat was sourced , and how Goat could be an undiscovered treat for many .

Hidden Restaurants Goat Feast in the woods!

The weather was awful and they did well to keep us all dry! Food was yummy, but it would have been nice to hear a little more about Cabrito and their work from the host.

Shawarma Kid Goat BBQ

The goat was absolutely incredible, and the salads complemented it wonderfully. It was a meat I had not tried before, but I will certainly be having it in the future.

Shawarma Kid Goat BBQ

The goat Shawarma was life changing! The goat was absolutely delicious, as were the vegetables and salads. But James himself was the real highlight - listening to him talk to a group of teenagers with passion, intelligence and reason about the ethical arguments for and against various food groups was an absolute joy. More please!

Unbelievably good. It was the first time I have tried goat and it was amazing. Such a fun day, sipping a beer and watching the goat cook on the spit in the first sunny day of Spring. I couldn't have asked for a better Saturday. Thanks James

Absolutely phenomenal afternoon. I'm a huge convert to goat and will be seeking it out at every opportunity. The event was relaxed, fun and I got to speak with a lot of new and interesting people. Exactly what WeFiFo stand for!

Shawarma Kid Goat BBQ

It was a beautiful location and the hosts were charming and very welcoming. They made everyone feel at home and it was great to hear from the chef, James Whetler, about the food before we ate. The Shawarma Goat was delicious and there was plenty of it, served with salads and followed by excellent home made ice cream. I thoroughly recommend attending one of these events!
