My favourite thing to do with either Roo or Wallaby is to make
patties. If I don't say anything, most people think it's beef...
I shot a wallaby in the wee hours of this morning and will leave it to
hang until late tomorrow - then mince the hind legs up and make the
patties. Winnie the dog can have the rest.

This is a pretty good basic recipe:
http://www.sallywise.com.au/blog/kangaroo-patties/
although I see no point in adding beef mince. I have some fatty mutton
in the freezer and will add either that or bacon... most likely the
mutton, I reckon.

Sometimes I like to use cauliflower in the pattie mix instead - I'd
like to know what ingredients you use in your patties, if you make
them? I'm especially interested in finding other fruit or veggies to
add, instead of using apple or cauliflower.


Dinner tonight is simmering away on the fi slow cooked leg of lamb,
with garlic, onions, carrots and peas, some fresh thyme and rosemary,
and stock made from my leftover lamb shanks from a couple of weeks
ago. Will make a big pot of mashed potato too. I just realised I
forgot the bay leaf... I'd better go and get one now

When I was in the Philippines I had a meal of kangaroo; I believe it was
loin, but I don't recall for sure. It was charbroiled, medium well.

I liked it; it had a nice beefy taste, slightly smoky from the fire. It
was a bit chewy, but not unpleasantly so.

I don't associate either kangaroo with Philippine cuisine and think
you were duped.

Yeah, It's very lean, so cooking it that way risks it being on the
chewy side. That's why I prefer to simply mince it, or cut it into
chunks for a casserole, or similar.

Also, I neglected to mention that I will be freezing most of these
patties. Interested to hear any tips or tricks you have for portioning
them and preparing them for the freezer? I vac-pac mine, usually.

For me it depends on how long it will be until I use them. If I don't
expect to keep them in the freezer long, I'll just form patties and
freeze them on a cake sheet and then put them into ziplock bags. If it
might be longer than a month, in the case of really cheap ground beef
that I've stocked up on, I'll freeze them on cake sheets but then
portion them into foodsaver bags of 3 or 4 each. I don't mix anything
in with the beef. If I want something extra, I'll add it once the
patties are defrosted and I'm ready to cook.

Thanks Cheryl. I think 'food saver bags' are those tough plastic
vacuum sealed bags? If so, that's what I normally use. Zip lock bags
is a good idea as well, I use them to freeze portions of stock.

Lucky you We can buy kangeroo steaks here in the wholesalers, but it's
not quite the same as shooting your own)

I can't think of a better way for long storage, but I often open freeze
items like that individually on a tray and bag them up in portions.

Hardly surprising since it's part of whatever you call the greater UK
universe.

Wholesaler, not a grocery store item? I know where to buy it
wholesale too. Not that I want to, but I could.

I shape them, put them between two sheets of freezer paper that I have
cut to fit and over-wrap each one with plastic wrap. I freeze them on
a sheet pan then put them in a freezer zip bag. I don't always freeze
patties, but during the summer it is handy to grab a couple for the
grill when it is too hot to cook.

Distance means nothing, if you've been paying any attention to the
talk of how "far" Yorkshire and Scotland is from London. +I have yet
to hear a Filipino mention eating kangaroo back in the PI.

Are you sure it is not part of what *you* call the greater UK universe? Not
something I've ever said or even thought, nor do I know anyone who does.

I haven't seen any locally but some stores must sell them or they wouldn't
be for sale in the wholesalers.

As soon as I see Ruben, my next-door Filipino neighbor, I will ask.
I think they are out of town visiting relatives.

I have trouble keeping track of what's called what in the minds of
Brits.

It's not sold in any stores I've shopped in here. The wholesaler here
sells mainly to restaurants (no idea where they are locally although
Google names a few in NYC and I wouldn't put it past a few Texas
restaurants) and people like you.

GB, UK, England, British Isles, I'm sure there's more - I need a
scorecard to keep track of what's what.

I can't think of any other reason for wholesalers to sell it in
Scotland. I'm pretty sure you're not buying meat from a wholesaler.

We 'can' buy meat in smaller packages as well as most other things if we
wanted to.

I checked on Yahoo Philippines, because I was curious.

I could not find kangaroo for sale. There is a foodcart franchise evocatively
called "Burgeroo' whose decorations include kangaroo caricatures. But this
might be just like the chain, "Kangaroo Jack's," which serves beef and
pork products, and no kangaroo at all.

In terms of American availability:

One segment of one episode of This American Life covers Ira Glass's
pit bull. The pit bull is allergic to virtually everything, so Ira
crosses NYC to fetch kangaroo meat for the dog to eat.

I guess you've got more access to wholesalers than I do.
