Chomp some roo

I was recently in Australia for a holiday and I was quite happy to get acquainted with roo again. Many years ago, I tried roo jerky. Yummy and tasted like any meat floss you can find here. Only tougher and need some good teeth.

This time, it is a whole slab of raw meat already marinated with herb and garlic. 98% fat free, cholesterol free, gluten free - I think AUD4.63 is very cheap in exchange for good health


Good for you and good for the environment! Approved by the National Heart Foundation too!


Your poo is probably more degradeable


Cooking method: Just like how you would cook your beef steak. Roo meat is best eaten rare or medium rare


Some nutritional information and ingredients that comes with the pack


That slab of raw meat. See those herbs and garlic?


Fry it with some olive oil. Makes it even healthier. Sear meat for 2 mins each side to get the beautiful "cooked" colour


I cooked it to well-done because I don't like my meat bloody. It was juicy and tasted like beef / emu / ostrich / venison / deer


And while I was having this hearty meal, I happened to flip the papers and read this small little article

Be environment friendly by eating roo, please.

kangaroo meat, interesting.
i went to China recently, was supposed to try on dog meat but couldn't find any as it's only available during winters.

Hi Desi, how was Fridae night?

Hey Lene, I replied on your post. I saw my previous comment was visible already.

Hehe, funny, Wang Tai Tai. Uhm, I think boxing roos are possible since the meat's tough and fatfree. Kanga is mama roo and Roo is baby joey, right? Guess it would be Kanga's meat.

Hey kruy! Dog meat ah? Yeah, it's available in winter but nah, I don't think I'd ever try dog meat. They say after eating dog meat, dogs can sense it and won't come near you. Since I have a poodle at home.....

Hi there, oh yeah, I was able to publish your post through the blogger site. But the email notification was really blank. But anyways, it's all well.

So, how are you? I look forward to more posts about your recent trip in Australia.
