The author and folklorist J Frank Dobie once said, "The boundaries of culture and rainfall never follow survey lines." This is certainly true of Dobie's native south Texas, which is a place shaped by both the cultures of Mexico and the American West. In this episode host Evan Stern travels below the Nueces River, to the YY Ranch where he joins the Avila Family as they convene there to roast one of this region's prized delicacies- cabrito. Amidst the revelry, the history, ethics and future of this dish of milk fed baby goat are explored through conversations with chef and culinary scholar Adan Medrano, restaurant owner Sylvia Casares, and educators and musicians Rosa Canales and Joe Perez. The resulting piece is a celebration of cross-border connections, that reveals cabrito as a symbol of the shared landscape and practices that bond South Texas and Northern Mexico.
