Do you cook Kangaroo? I have found some people just can't bring themselves to cook Kangaroo...maybe it's the TV series many years ago about Skippy the Kangaroo (he was soooo cute)...or the fact that it's part of the Australian emblem? However, I really think it is an excellent meat and I am a big fan. I find this succulent meat to be just the thing when you need to cook in a hurry and that seems to be most of the time for me! Macro Meats produce a range of kangaroo fresh cuts, such as premium 98% fat free kangaroo steaks and fillets, as well as a variety of marinated meats which are ready for the BBQ...here

Kangaroo Fillets Kangaroo and Macadamia Salad
As with any other red meat, the times vary and for the best results Kangaroo should be cooked rare to medium rare and should never be overcooked - with the exception of sausages and mince, which must be cooked thoroughly. Macro Meats have a good website where you can find valuable information, such as cooking tips...here.
It is therefore recommended by Macro Meats to not overcook Kangaroo meat to retain moisture and flavour...recipes Some flavours that go particularly well with Kangaroo meat are: garlic, rosemary, juniper, and fruity flavours such as: plum, red currant, or orange. Although it is easy to adapt most meat recipes and replace other meats or seafood with kangaroo instead. There are also some wonderful mushroom recipes that can be adapted and to use kangaroo and if you are a lover of mushrooms, this is a very informative website...here
