On the menu - crocodile, kangeroo, ostrich, camel

[muikabochi 208]

Ishiuchi Drivein, good yakiniku here in Minamiuonuma at the base of the Ishiuchi Maruyama skijo, and with a surprisingly wide menu..... on there is crocodile, kangeroo, ostrich and camel meat!

 

Wonder how many people try them? Not done so myself, I always have the same thing when I go there I like it so much.

Was just reading something about kangeroo meat and how lots of Aussies are reluctant to eat it. Is that so?

[HelperElfMissy 42]

We most certainly eat it in our home...BUT in years past Kangaroo meat was not commercially available for human consumption. It was however available in frozen packs as pet meat. I would expect that the stigma of eating a 'lesser' pet food grade meat is what keeps a lot of people from eating it. It took me a while to warm up to horse meat - my initial reaction was GLUE.

Exotic!

 

Heard about that place, never been.

[Chriselle 158]

Exotic as it is...It all ends up tasting similar to either chicken or beef anyway, no?

[634-maru 4]

Does human taste like chicken or beef, I wonder?

[Tubby Beaver 209]

Ostrich....probably tastes like Emu....and that was shit....very, very gamey chicken.

 

Kangaroo is good...just don't over cook it...tastes like venison

 

Croc....just tasted like chicken

[Tubby Beaver 209]

Camel....gave me the hump

[Chriselle 158]

My favorite meat is moose....my god it's heavenly. Tastes the way beef should taste like.

[grungy-gonads 54]

I like chocolate moose.

Elk...now that's good eatin'

[Chriselle 158]

Moose, elk, cariboo, reindeer...all very good. A lot depends on season, how they were shot, and dressing but yes, all amazing and healthy meats.

I've eaten all of them.

 

Kangaroo is a very lean meat and can not be over cooked. Medium-rare at most, and generally the rarer the better.

 

Crockadile is like fish mixed with chicken. It's really good when lightly fried tempura style. Some Mexican places are serving it here now.

 

The cut of camel I have had was a bit more like wagu, not too bad.

 

Emu I can't remember but I think it was just like a gamier style of chicken. Nothing really to write home about.

[Chriselle 158]

I'm a huge fan of that rarest of rare delicacies.....It's right at the very tip of the camel's foot....

[gozaimaas 61]

ahaha yeah Im partial to a healthy serving of camel toe too chriselle

[kokodoko 67]

camel toe, my favourite meat. I love eating it!

Squirrels ...especially in the fall eating all the acorns. The brain is like boiled egg york

[snowdude 44]

I have eaten crocodile before in Florida and it was very tasty.

The squirrels brain?

[JA2340 16]

Have had 'roo kebabs - and very tasty they are too! As said, because of the very low fat content, they need to be very lightly cooked.

 

There are some here who insist that we should not be eating the animal that's on out coat of arms, but they are in plague proportions and very destructive of fences, and they eat a heap of the grass that beef farmers want to feed their cattle.
