onetrack Posted January 4 Posted January 4 (edited) Did he get the "wild bacteria chicken soup, the "spiced flesh of a donkey", or the "hand tore the rabbit leg", too? Edited January 4 by onetrack

I believe that aged beef is a thing in our culture also beef with a lot of fat, such as wagyu. There is a little something lost in the translation, though. 1

octave Posted January 4 Author Posted January 4 My son's partner is Chinese, although now a New Zealander. We met her for the first time when they visited a couple of years ago. We cooked a meal together. She taught us how to make traditional Chinese veges and this great spicy mashed potato and we showed her how to cook kangaroo correctly. Being her first time in Australia, she was keen to pet a kangaroo and eat one. 2
onetrack Posted January 4 Posted January 4 (edited) I've eaten BBQ'ed wild goat and donkey sausages, that were knocked up by a bunch of truckies in Kalgoorlie, back in the mid-1980's. These blokes were keen feral animal hunters and butchers, and they made these sausages with chunks of meat about 6mm square, not minced meat. They weren't too bad at all. That "spiced flesh of a donkey" looks a lot like sliced donkey tongue. My parents would cook and dish up beef tongue when I was young, and it was quite edible and tasty. We used to eat it cold with salad. Edited January 4 by onetrack 2
