Food on a budget


Good for you mick.
 

Champion. Thanks for that.
 


Please. Roo is great eating. Lower in calories if you watching that shit, and tastes great when cooked correctly.

Its good lean protein man. My dog loves it. I love it more, so she doesnt get much of it.

Better than chicken really.

But the prices are now Stupid. I used to buy it for 3 or 4 bucks per kg, now its like 14 bux. WTF.
my local butchers cuts me a deal. (pun intended). only way i can bring myself to buy it.

Back on topic.

Tuna.
Roo (when it was cheap and chearful).
Rump. Had a cheap source.
Bulk vege's from the markets. i worked there so for 20 bux i could get about 100 bux worth of stuff. Good stuff too, not shit that goes off in a day or 2. Would last me weeks.
 
Butchers used to give away the lamb shank.
having said that, that, soup mix and veg in a pot makes a great meal, that'll feed you for weeks, makes for great farts.
 

Just can not stomach the taste, and seeing rotting carcasses on the side of the road daily probably does not help my perception, I probably average 1-2 per month that I run over, they are that thick out here it's not funny, and the roo shooters are complaining that they don't get enough money for the meat and that it hardly covers diesel and bullets, with a few giving it away, so not too sure why it costs so much, it's just a natural resource, that is breeding out of control.

I remember American style pork ribs used to be $1.99 per kilo not that long ago, then they became trendy and they are now between $19 and $24 per kilo.
 
I too wish for a return of the time when lamb shanks aren't considered a delicacy but a nuisance. I got charged for $8.50 a shank yesterday cause I was craving a nice shank stew.

It was sold as 'frenched shanks'. Good grief, I wonder how much more it would cost if it was 'greeked'.
 
Interesting you say that about commercial roo shooting Mick - I was talking to one the other day who reckoned there was still decent money in it, at least down here. It's about $9/kg for mince/sausages/rissoles or $14 for steak. Unfortunately I can't cook roo steak any other way than turning it into leather lol.

Medium rare to rare brother!
2 minutes per side on the bbq. Or less. Hard to fuck it up.
 
Yep, like venison and all the other gamey meats, it needs to be fairly rare. And give it plenty of time to rest or it will bleed like a mofo when you cut in to it
 
I can go with some horse casserole, it's got a nice and rich flavour, had me fooled thinking it was beef first time I had it.
