Gamey'ness is usually bad meat. People say the same about Lamb. It tastes "gamey". That's because you are eating tough old lamb. I bet it's the same for kangaro

It tastes "gamey". That's because you are eating tough old lamb. I bet it's the same for kangaroo.
If it's very lean I would add some fat to it. Pork fat :)
I bet that would make a killer sausage.
- eesmith 9y agoIsn't "lamb" a young sheep? How can it be tough and old? Sheep meat is mutton. Makes a lovely curry.
- GauntletWizard 9y agoNot the animal, the meat. The meat has been butchered and then left out too long. For some meats, aging in this way improves the taste or texture - Not so much for lamb.
- eesmith 9y agoThanks!
- stouset 9y agoIn the US, there is no distinction made between the age of sheep in the labeling of its meat. No matter how old the animal, it's lamb, not mutton.
- eesmith 9y agoWow! That finally explains why I never found mutton in the US. I've been curious about that for over a decade.
- rosege 9y agowe call kangaroo sausages kangabangers - havent heard of anyone mixing with pork though
- X86BSD 9y agoInteresting, most sausages use pork fat to keep the meats from drying out. If you don't use pork fat what kind of fat do you add to the kangaroo meat to keep it moist in a sausage? Also, haha I love the phrase "kangabangers". Sounds like an outback criminal gang. "The kangabangers shot and killed two today."
