| Goat
Kill, Gravel Springs, MS 1998 |
||||||||||
| Otha 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 sandwiches 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." | ||||||||||
