Us fellas out the bush eat it all the time. Roos eat the crop and when there grain fed they taste even better. Made some roo biltong yesterday and it was pretty good. There are heaps of pro roo shooters that operate out of here apparently our biggest market for roo meat is Russia. Their ballsacks make cool coin and marble pouches too.

We eat roo, not nearly as much as we should since it is an abundant source of local meat right on our doorstep, but our over-westernized ways make eating it a bit of a social faux-pas, which is a damn shame.

I have just started cooking with Kangaroo and I love it. In Oz we are just starting to eat it regularly, it is just starting out and I think it will become more common. I cook the steaks to medium, and they do taste like beef, only heaps cheaper. I am still looking for differnt recipes while I go about converting people. There's heaps roos and they know how to survive a drought, so I say "Eat them." Just think of them as giant rabbits.

OK. I know the area. Drove along that road back in '79. I have a photo of me standing beside that sign on the border that announces entry into the NT. I was heading east, heading back down to Brizzy from Darwin. Hope you enjoyed your time down here in the Wide Brown.
I can't believe no one has posted a comment. Love your footage. Well done. Looks like a top little place to set a camp. You were drinking 4X, Where abouts were you when you recorded this?

Thanks, glad you liked it. When we did this we were on the Barkly Hwy, about halfway between Mt. Isa and Three Ways. We picked up the 4X before we left Queensland!
