Turner and Abron Jackson clean 3 goats they've killed early in the morning
before a traditional fife and drum picnic in the Gravel Springs community
of the Northeast Mississippi Hill country. The goat meat will be boiled
in a large black kettle in Turner's back yard and then barbecued on a grill
throughout the afternoon. During the coming night's picnic, as Turner and
family perform for dancers on the fife and drum, his daughter's will sell
$3.00 barbecued goat sandwhiches along with pork, fish and cans of soda
and beer. "People always want goat at a picnic, so I try to have it
for them," says Turner. "Everybody always hollering goat." |
