Kangaroo

My butcher has a distributor that can get kangaroo. I decided that this would be a pretty interesting meat to try. My understanding is that its quite popular in some parts of Australia, where it's even possible to get in on a pizza.

The meat came in 1kg packages of tenderloin imported from Australia. The meat is a very deep read colour, similar to venison. Unfortunately, I didn't get any pictures of the meat during the cooking process.

I grilled it yesterday, and the cooked meat was was very rich in flavour. I was very impressed by how tender the meat was. It might have too gamey a flavour for some people to enjoy, but I plan on preparing kangaroo tenderloin again in the future. With its rich flavour, it would go very well in a stew.
