What to Know About Kangaroo Meat

If you guessed that the vast majority of kangaroo meat for sale is from Australia, you are correct! These large marsupials are native to Australia and are primarily found in the wild there. Though there are some domesticated kangaroos, most kangaroo meat for sale is wild.


Kangaroo meat’s distinct flavor is often likened to game meat. It tastes slightly stronger than beef, with a hint of sweetness and smoke. Kangaroo meat is also considered a healthier meat option. It’s rich in protein and is a good source of essential nutrients such as iron, zinc, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamin B12, and naturally high in CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) which is believed to have health benefits. Kangaroo meat is also low in fat and cholesterol, making it a favorable choice for individuals seeking leaner red meat alternatives.


A well-regulated kangaroo meat industry in Australia ensures sustainability and animal welfare. The industry plays an important role in managing kangaroo populations in Australia, as controlled culling is necessary to prevent overpopulation and mitigate environmental damage. Because kangaroos require less water, feed, and produce fewer greenhouse gases, kangaroo meat is considered environmentally friendly and sustainable compared to traditional livestock. All kangaroo meat is irradiated as part of processing in Australia.


Kangaroo meat is consumed and enjoyed by many people in its native land. It is also exported to various countries, particularly in Europe and North America, where it is gaining popularity as an exotic and sustainable meat option. Why not give kangaroo meat a try!

Cooking Tips for Kangaroo Meat

Kangaroo meat can be grilled, roasted, stir-fried, or used in stews and curries. Be careful not to overcook kangaroo meat. Because of its low-fat content, it may become tough and dry. Techniques such as barding (wrapping it with bacon or pancetta) can also help keep it from drying out as it cooks.


Kangaroo leg meat, aka Denver leg, is a particularly versatile and convenient cut. A kangaroo Denver leg has had all bones removed and each muscle has been separated so they can be used for different preparations. The various cuts can be roasted or braised whole or sliced. They also can be cubed to make kangaroo stew.


If you choose to marinate or sauce kangaroo meat, keep the flavors mild so as not to mask kangaroo’s unique taste. Ingredients often used with kangaroo meat include garlic, thyme, bacon, pancetta, juniper berries and other berries, and red wine or port.


As with other meats, let kangaroo meat rest for a bit, covered, after cooking so the juices can redistribute.
