Goat to debut on Target Field menu

MINNEAPOLIS — Goat will be on the menu at Target Field when the Minnesota Twins open the 2013 season, and it’s not the kind of goat that blows a game.

The new food vendors include AZ Canteen, a venture of Minnesota celebrity chef Andrew Zimmern, host of the Travel Channel’s “Bizarre Foods.” His stand will serve up a goat-and-lamb burger and other nontraditional ballpark dishes like griddled veal tongue and green papaya salad with pork belly. Zimmern debuted the goat burgers at the Minnesota State Fair last summer.

Other new vendors include Mac’s Fish and Chips of St. Paul, Sheboygan Sausage of Alexandria, Panino’s Baked Sandwiches of North Oaks, and some healthy food options too.
