Haggis!! Substitutes...?

Recently intriqued by haggis and want to try and make some. I live in Ontario, NOT Scotland and cannot get my hands on anything sheepish. Anyone tried making haggis with something akin to this meat? Maybe goat? Any suggestions or recipes appreciated. :-)

    Poopy, you may not be able to get your hands on lungs, stomach, liver, and heart, but you should be able to find a lamb chop and have the butcher grind it up for you. Give this recipe a try::

    EASY PRETEND HAGGIS RECIPE

    http://www.scotlands-enchanting-kingdom.com/preten...

    Ingredients:

    1 finely chopped small onion

    1 large egg

    3/4 teaspoon salt

    3/4 teaspoon black pepper

    1/2 teaspoon sugar

    1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

    1/8 teaspoon ground cloves

    1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

    6 oz / 175 g oats (preferably pinhead ones)

    Method

    •Grease a loaf tin or bowl suitable for the oven.

    •Using a Food Processor, chop half of the lamb, the liver, onion, egg, salt, pepper, sugar, ginger, cloves, nutmeg and water until completely combined.

    •Add all remaining ingredients, mixing thoroughly until everything is mixed together well.

    •Put the mixture into the greased tin and flatten the top.

    •Bake 45 - 55 minutes in a preheated oven (350°F / 180°C)

    •The centre of the loaf should be firm when pressed.

    •Leave in the tin for around 2 - 3 minutes to cool..

    •Gently turn on to a serving plate and serve right away.

    Serve with tatties and neeps, or use to stuff the chicken and serve with a whisky sauce.
