Exotic Meats!

I've never posted in this forum before since I'm a terrible cook and I know next to nothing about food preparation, but I found out about this website today and I'm thinking of ordering from it!

It's UK based and you can order stuff like crocodile burgers, bison steaks, ostrich meat... all sorts of cool and unusual creatures just waiting for you to gobble them!

I wouldn't mind trying an ostrich burger - does it say if the meat's locally produced?

I think there' s a big push in Britain right now to eat rose veal --- something on the F-word this season--- in fact I went looking for the stuff here today to make veal piccatta and couldn't find any.

Some of those things might be worth a try --- it'll be interesting to hear if you end up trying any kate.

I had a bison steak just last week. It was very lean, had a very slight gamey taste to it but was delicious.

I know there's an Ostrich farm in Berkshire so it's likely the meat is British-produced, if not exactly local.

I'm not a fan of ostrich. It's a bit too gamy for my liking. But for all I know it was just the way it was prepared. I have only had it the one time.

There are a fair few ostrich and emu farms in NM, so it's not that rare in those parts. Can't say that I have seen many here!

It tastes not unlike venison but with a different flavour? Well that's that explained then!
