Add 2 tablespoons brown sugar and 1 tablespoon thyme to the goat meat.

Add 1 whole Scotch bonnet pepper and 12 pimento seeds to the goat meat.

Add 2 capfuls of vegetable oil to the goat meat and rub the seasoning in thoroughly.

Cover the seasoned goat meat and let it marinate for a while, preferably longer for better flavor.

Heat a Dutch pot until hot, then add 1/2 teaspoon to 1 teaspoon of curry powder and let it burn for about 30 seconds.

Add 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the pot and stir to combine with the curry powder.

Add the marinated goat meat to the pot and stir for about 1-2 minutes.

Cover the pot and add hot boiling water to just cover the goat meat, then reduce heat to medium.

Let the goat meat cook for about 2-3 hours, stirring occasionally and adding more water if necessary.

Check the goat meat for tenderness and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper as needed.

Add about 1/2 teaspoon of brown sugar to balance the spice if necessary.
