Chivito
Chivito is the grilled meat of a young goat eaten in Argentina, sometimes as part of an asado.
The chivito, less gamey and with a more delicate flavour than the adult goat, can be cooked a la parrilla (grill) or a la cruz. In the chivito a la cruz, the chivito is set vertically on a cross which is nailed to the floor near the fire, giving it a special flavour.
Every summer, a Chivito Festival is held in the town of Malargue in the province of Mendoza, Argentina.
Chivito is also the name of the Uruguayan sandwich.
