Kangaroo meat good?

Question

I am tempted to order this from the internet. Does anyone know if this is any good or not?

Also does anyone know what the best way to cook it is, and not just method of cooking I am talking about seasoning too. Thank you!

Answer 1

You want to cook kangaroo meat medium rare or rare. Rare has a pink and cool center to touch. Medium rare has a pink center and greyish appearance around the edges. If you do it medium to well done, it will be tough to eat. That is because it is a lean meat. It will not be good to eat well done and be hard to chew. If you like well done meats, then I say stick to the high fatty meats like steak. As far as seasoning it depends on how long it has been aged for. If it is fresh or frozen,  most chefs marinade it in a red wine marinades, fruity marinades, or in oil with seasoning salt. You would want to season the meat with seasoning salt, thyme leaves, and pepper. The basics will work on this too. Ok to cook the dry rubbed meat or marinated meat, you place it in a fry pan with oil. You want a flavor oil. Such as peanut oil or macadamia nut oil, or sunflower oil. You cook for 3 to 5 minutes on each side (it's very fast). You definately want to avoid the smoke stage of the oil. Once you do that, you then take the meat and pour it from the sauce pan into foil. Wrap the meat in foil. This enables the juices and flavor to be contained. Let it rest for 5 minutes. You can slice in slices or filet slices once you let it rest for 5 minutes. I had it bad because it wasn't prepared right. People don't like it because of that fact. This is a chefs way of teaching me to do it and it works! And tastes good as long as someone knows the right way to cook it! I hope I helped Enjoy!
