  • Choose the right cut of kangaroo meat: Kangaroo steaks should be cut from the fillet, oyster, or rump, as these cuts are the most tender and flavorful. Avoid cuts from the shank or neck, as these are tougher and less flavorful.
  • Marinate the kangaroo steaks: Marinating the kangaroo steaks in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, herbs, and spices will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor. Marinate the steaks for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the kangaroo steaks over high heat: Kangaroo steaks should be cooked over high heat to sear the outside and keep the inside tender and juicy. Cook the steaks for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they reach the desired doneness.
  • Let the kangaroo steaks rest before serving: After cooking, let the kangaroo steaks rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
