Hey guys, Australian roo shooter here...I really enjoyed this episode! Glad you enjoyed eating it! Your prep work is amazing! A trick we use to make sausages and burger patties really juicy, is to grind up some cattle fat or sheep fat then mix it all together ...You end up with very tender juicy meat. We also use the same method with wild goat, camel and emu meat. It makes the world of difference. Bursting with flavour. However the majority of Australians cringe at the idea of eating our National emblem ( Kangaroo & Emu ), Those of us who do however, have our own little recipe secrets. Thanks again, Take care fella's. Bill - Western Australia.

I farm 3000 acres in southeastern Australia (Victoria), and we have an elevated population of Eastern Grey Kangaroos due to the crops and pasture that we grow for our sheep and cattle. It is not uncommon to see several hundred of them driving around our paddocks at night. We shoot them to manage the numbers, and although they are a pest to us, I don’t like waste. I have eaten them occasionally but I would much sooner eat venison; which we also have. We try and use the meat from the roos that we cull for dog food, we have five working Border Collies we use for mustering sheep and they can eat 10 to 20kg of roo meat each week. Although I have probably culled 20-30,000 roos over the last 35 years, the population in our area is probably somewhere between double and triple what would have existed before white fellas settled the country.

You won't see many Aussies complaining about you making them into Burgers, that's very popular over here! Other popular forms of Roo are as steaks and as Sausages (often called Kanga Bangers). I haven't seem them sold as roasting portions but I imagine that also exists. Small clarification on the number of species though. While your numbers are correct, usually we only call the Four largest species (Red Kangaroo, Eastern and Western Grey Kangaroos, and Antilopine Kangaroo) Kangaroos, then the next few medium/large species we call Wallaroo's, and the smaller species (of which there are lots and they're much rarer than the large species) we call Wallabies. If Kangaroos are our Cow equivalent then Wallabies are our Sheep/Goat equivalent in terms of their environmental roles. There's also Tree Kangaroos which are their own weird group found in tropical rainforests which fulfil a similar niche to what Monkeys do in the rest of the world.

We're one of a very select few countries that eat our coat of arms. Often have to explain it foreigners that isn't a bad thing. Because of how much we care about them, their numbers are so huge that we have to cull them - otherwise we risk them becoming almost invasive. We even lost a war to Emu's, which is almost as sad as losing a war to Afghanistan (we helped in losing that war too).

The main thing about cooking Roo is you have to remember that it is a game meat. It can be used in place of Beef or Lamb but needs to be prepared like Venison. In fact we usually substitute Roo for Deer as it is much cheaper here.

I began hunting Roo’s a few years ago here in Western Australia. We would shoot one or two of the older males on some agricultural property as they are deemed pests. I hadn’t shot or butchered anything myself before. Whilst I spent some time reading about the butchering of Kangeroo, I actually watched your butchering videos to gain as much knowledge as I could. I massively improved my skills from your videos and the cuts of meat I was able to extract from the animal also improved. Just weird that this video has come out, it feels full circle! Keep up the great work fellas.

Best way to have Roo is with marinated fillets. Just a basic, chilli, herb and garlic marinade goes really well and toss it into a goat cheese and Beetroot salad and you’re laughing mate. It’s also important to remember that you don’t want to overpower the flavour of the meat of the roo as it’s beautiful to say the least

Great video! Yep here in Australia we have many kangaroos. In the 1850's when the grazing industry began, they first did sink wells in the desert to bring up groundwater. This meant kangaroo numbers could go exponential. Simply put, they breed like rabbits and are big enough to break fences and eat a lot of grass. The government each year allows around 250 000 to be culled legally. If farmed they are much better for the environment than cattle because they have soft paws and don't wreck native grasses. The problem is building a fence that will hold them in. Wonderful channel you guys have here. Thank you! 👍❤💯

We have a wide range of spiecies seen as exotic particularly in northern Australia , Such as Crocadile, Buffelo, Emu, Camel , horse, Mutton birds and of course the Kangaroo. Here in Aus we often blend a bit of fatty lamb in with the Roo grinding which makes for a juicier burger and eliminates the tendancy of dryness of the straight lean Roo meat .

To keep PETA happy. You should state, "no Kangaroo's were killed in the making of this video" By us! 😂😂

I spread a thin coat of soft butter on top of leaner meats before grilling,helps add some juicy flavor without drying it out.

Kangaroo snags should be next on the list , very very lean so you need to add like 25% pork fat but super tasty, and cook roo fast so it doesnt go all tough like a boot.

This is just not true. It's commercially available at any Coles etc. It's not super popular, but we eat it

I've ate racoons, what do you do when you harvest them? I'm guessing it's like rabbit but I'm probably wrong.

@@indyjones3287 im sure you have rednecks that eat anything over there too.

BTW, You've probably heard that in the knife sharpening world, kangaroo tail is highly prized as a stropping material and very hard to get, at least in the U.S.

One of the good burger chains here (Grill’d) did a “coat of arms” burger for Australia Day, it was a Kangaroo and Emu meat patty. Was very tasty!

love that your trying the kangaroo but as an ex chef from australia try the kangaroo with the coffee blend it will be best. also for anyone wondering what it taste like its a lean game like beef. thats as close as description can get without making you try it.

I have tried some eastern grey roo steaks, one was absolutely amazing and the other was like trying to eat leather, They can be a tricky meat to cook but when you get a nice piece its amazing

Lol hunting cabin, we don't really use those, most guys sleep in their utes or swags. A common thing is to set up a swag on your ute, or in the back of a wagon if you have like a land cruiser wagon. The outback here in Barron.

As an Aussie great video, So delicious and I would say one of the leanest meats, emu and crocodile are good to, lean meat if you want to lose weight eat it, yep seasoning and cheese pickles or even onion relish is awesome and we love burgers down under and they too makes good sausages needs to also be seasoned

Also just making a batch of roo jerky . Can't wait till it's ready yum

A tip for roo from a Aussie who loves eating them cook it like you would a lean brisket low and slow real slow only when dealing with large pieces or the ribs and only season with salt and pepper add spices if you want after the cook

The Kangaroo tail is the only part with fat and it stews up brilliantly. Try it out if you can get your hands on it. Use it the same way you use ox tail and you won't be disappointed.

yeah but even then its still lean as hell lol though kanga tail stew is def my favourite way of cooking kangaroo

The original seasoning is awesome! Tried it on catfish and it was like my mouth went to heaven.

We are so happy you enjoyed it!!

Well done fellas. You did a great job.

Had grey kangaroo steaks here downunder , with a redwine sauce ! Dog gets occasional ground kangaroo. Cook rare and enjoy !

Now, you need to try a decent aussie burger - beetroot and pineapple on it.

In Aussie our kangaroo Pattie’s have carrot ,onion and a bit of apple just salt to season 12:17

Love what you are doing ! A small suggestion - add some nice fatty bacon to the mix. 'Roo is a bit too lean, and adding a bit of fat lifts the flavour (and of course everything is better with Bacon) !

I’ve had kangaroo a few times. Tastes exactly like the whitetail I hunt.

Roo tartare is amazing

I went spotlighting for roos once, then took em back skinned them & cooked up... Delicious 👌

I loved this video, one thing is certain if you don't cook roo properly it will taste real gamie, personally I like roo tail, either cooked in the coals or cut up and cooked in a stew

“I feel like I should have a fosters in my hand” hmm no, nobody drinks fosters in Australia mate! 🤣

I ate Kangaroo once. It was slow cooked or braised like a beef roast. It was delicious and tasted much like beef.... 🙂

Taking the Mickey Mate! Bloody Kangas everywhere here in Australia! Great work!!

Those look absolutely amazing and I bet those were amazing

Only had it once but I remember it being pretty good. I will try just about anything at least once. I prefer alternatives to cow, elk, buffalo etc.
