Wow! I wonder where I'll find a kangaroo in Alabama! :) What kind of meat would you have us substitute if we're fresh out of 'roo?


I was just thinking the same thing.


Yes.. good point!! I didn't think of that.. I'll put an alteration in..


You can get kangaroo meat (and lots of other different kinds of meats!) at www.exoticmeats.com. I have some kangaroo burgers in my freezer right now! :)


Well if i ever run over a roo i'll be cooking this up LOL ! thanks for the recipe ...just reading it to my 10 year old daughter . ;-)


As much as I would love to go down under,do not think I will be doing it eating kangaroo.My sons nick name is roo so no roo eating for this Mom.At the ripe old age of 25 I am sure he will love this recipe!!!!I have a doe and fawn in my back yard.Good thing for them my better half does not hunt!I am going to try it with sirloin.


LOL, nanny you are funny. I felt the same way before I tried Roo for the first time. Now I just think of them as overgrown rabbits.


Rabbits I do.My kids thought they were eating chicken for years.I marinate in lemon, garlic,olive oil salt and pepper for a few hours and grill.Great meal!!!Thanks for a cookin buddy down under!


At a restaurant in Sydney I had the house special. It was Kangaroo, Aligator, some snake, a local fish and a few other things on the platter -most of which I had never heard of. It was quite unique. I was told you could buy kangaroo meat at the grocery store?


I tried this with sirloin as Nanny did...absolutely delicious.

Kangaroo has a mild game flavor and is reminiscent of a well hung steak. I think Venison could be a good substitute here. If anyone tries it please let me know how it went.
