Alpaca meat was once considered a delicacy by Andean inhabitants. Alpaca meat is one of the healthiest and most flavorful meat’s in the world. The meat is lean, tender, and almost sweet. Alpaca meat is not only rich in proteins, but also low in fat & has the lowest level of cholesterol of any meat.

Just as meat from cattle is called beef and deer is venison, the term being used for Alpaca meat in America currently is PACA.

There are many health benefits of alpaca meat in comparison to the traditional livestock meats. It is the meat of the Andes and one of the healthiest and oldest food sources of the Incan’s and pre-Incans and remains a South American delicacy as well as important daily food source.

Braise it! Season the shanks with salt and pepper and brown them in a large, heavy bottom pot. Set the meat aside and add aromatics such as onion, garlic and herbs like fresh thyme and rosemary to the pot along with some beef stock. Scrape up all the brown bits, return the meat to the pot, cover it and cook in the oven at 350 degrees for about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. It should be falling off the bone tender. Then serve it over mashed potatoes or creamy polenta.

Turn it into sandwiches! After the shank is braised and tender, let it cool and pull the meat off the bones into shreds. Sauté an onion in olive oil until it's caramelized. Spread two slices of good crusty bread with butter, pile on the shredded Alpaca shank meat along with tomatoes, some greens, and the caramelized onions. Slice and serve.

Or, turn it into BBQ flavored pulled meat and serve it as tacos. Simply add your favorite BBQ sauce and chili powder to the braising liquid before placing the Alpaca in the oven. When cooked and shredded, serve it in tacos with your favorite toppings.

Make a stew! Braise the Alpaca, as per the above instructions but add celery, carrots, red wine, rosemary, thyme, and bay leaves to the pot before placing it in the oven for about 2 hours. When the meat is tender, remove it from the pot and pull it off the bone. Strain the sauce and return it to the pot. Simmer the sauce over medium heat until it reduces by about half and return the Alpaca meat to the sauce. Serve over potatoes, noodles, polenta, or rice.
