David Dale ponders how to get Aussies to eat kangaroo. I’ll admit that ‘roo isn’t my favorite meat. It’s not because I have any sort of a “Skippy” complex, but just because it’s so dark and gamey. It all depends on the preparation, really. (Now I sound like one of those idiotic commentators on Iron Chef: “You’ve done a great job of covering up the smell!”) The Snook got us a couple small ‘roo roasts the other night, and they’d been marinated with loads of garlic. Sliced on sandwiches with barbecue sauce? YUMMO.

Obviously, as a vegetarian, I don’t eat kangaroo. It’s our meat of preference to feed to Stella though, and I have to say that kangaroo stinks to cook. I’ve gotten more used to it, but I think the stink would turn a lot of people off.
