What do you get if the Pyrethrum and Poppy cross. A wallaby that is high and does not get bugs.

I agree with you Abbi, Tasmania is about the best place on Earth. (Im not even a true tasmanian, grew up in Sydney. Only been here half my life so will have to wait a while yet to be a local Wink

Same here Ripley. They say you are not a real Tasmanian unless your grandmother is buried in the local cemetery! That is not true for us, we have only been here for 44 years. But we have fooled a lot of the locals though because we have been here longer than they have been alive!

Aww, Dee..........I won't be able to live here for 44 yrs....not unless I get one of those telegrams from Queen. Embarassed

We had Kangaroo fillets yesterday - beautiful lean meat and sooo tender. the secret is not to overcook it Smile

WHY is it so expensive ?? Can anyone explain? We cull the darned animals anyway!

You know what the REAL secret is Val... a real nice bottle of red wine! I don't drink normally... but I do like a nice glass of red with roo Smile

is it prepared like an piece from beef, medium rare ? I had a look at http://www.australiashop.com/. it will cost about 20€ p. kg w.o. packaging and posting in Germany, thats nearly the half of beef fillet, must test it tongue

by Simon on 25th July 2009, 10:33 pm

More like deer I think... it's very lean and quite dark but it stays quite moist if you don't over cook it. I really like it grilled New Orleans style Smile

not quite New Orleans style... but somewhere along those lines.

Bemo do you mean to tell us that over there Beef is nearly 40 euros / kg???

by Bemo on 25th July 2009, 10:48 pm

yes, thats roundabout the price: bargain at ebay

fillet from an old milk cow will be a little bit cheaper. So it's not very often on the bill of fare Crying or Very sad

by Simon on 25th July 2009, 11:29 pm

So what meat do you eat if beef is so $$$?
