Kangaroo Meat ??

quoll · 11-09-2007, 04:49 AM

G'day

Bought some Kangaroo, it's nice meat taste gamey good to BBQ.

Had a look at the nutritional information and was surprised. Has anyone used Kangaroo as a change from chicken?

I would buy it if I could find it and if it wasn't so expensive. Same thing with ostrich.

We don't have kangaroos here, but if we did I'd try it.

I've always wanted to try it, but it's pretty hard to find around here. I'm sure if I could find it, then it would be really expensive.

Kangaroo meat is awesome!!! Had it for the first time at some swanky restaurant here a couple of weeks ago. (and had alligator for an appetizer - it was my exotic animal night apparently). I actually didnt know the macros of roo were so good. I would definitely consider eating more in place of chicken, but I think its hard to find and expensive around here. My entree at the restaurant cost about $50 -- luckily my employer was paying for everything.

Location makes a big difference, I buy it at the shop around the corner. Most butchers and supermarkets sell it.

About the same price as chicken maybe 10% more but cheaper than the free range chicken fillets.

Red meat, should have taken a picture. Will do that next time.

Found some Venison at the markets but that was $13 for 6 hamburger patties which is about 500g. The roo was $5 for 450g

cheers
