Rinse the goat meat under room-temperature water.

Pour off the water and add 1/2 cup of vinegar mixed with some water to wash the meat.

Rinse the meat again to remove the vinegar smell.

Squeeze lime juice over the goat meat and rinse with room-temperature water again.

Drain off all the water from the meat, ensuring it is not too wet.

Sprinkle 4 tablespoons of curry powder, a pinch of black pepper, 1 teaspoon of garlic salt, and 1 teaspoon of seasoned salt over the meat.

Use hands to rub the seasonings into the meat thoroughly.

Prepare scallion, thyme, ginger, scotch bonnet pepper, garlic, onion, and pimento seeds; wash and chop them up.

Combine all the chopped ingredients with the marinated meat and rub everything together.

Cover the meat and refrigerate to marinate for about 4 hours, or overnight for best results.

After marinating, heat vegetable oil in a pot and add the marinated meat.

Saute the meat for about 5 minutes, mixing it lightly.

After 15 minutes of cooking, the meat should be slightly browned.

Add 2 cups of water to the pot and mix it in, allowing it to simmer.

After some time, add another cup of water if needed as it cooks down.

Add the whole scotch bonnet pepper to the pot for flavor.
