If I remember correctly, my Father in Law uses ground beef, a finely chopped pork butt, and some kind of sausage, possibly chorizo. It's like primordial meatloaf.
I've never had cabrito, but I have been told to only eat it hot, and never after April, so your timing is good. Most places want 24 hour notice for it, so call ahead!
