Looks like carry over cooking. Roo is unforgiving, 20s too long will ruin it, no joke. Also there was no sauce to go with it and in my expereince a sweet jus with a lot of body does a lot to help the texture of roo.
Glad to hear you liked Australia, if you get the chance again I can Recommend Brisbane / Gold Coast in Queensland, should also save you about 2hrs flight time each way if you are coming from Seoul.
I might be wrong but as an Australian I feel like Roo is one of those meats you try once and never go out of your way to eat again... It's not bad but..
I'm Aussie. I've been cooking 'roo for years. It's so lean that it's easy to cardboard. The best method is to velvet it, then cook it any way ya want. Cooee!
Skippy the bush kangaroo 😄 Aussie version of Lassie in America. I am a Aussie only had kangaroo once made me sick. They have cook it the right way hope yours was cooked right 😅. Maybe like a rabbit or deer meat?
Nice video. I understand your curiosity about eating crocodile. I have eaten alligator white meat before. I pan fried it with blackened seasoning. The texture of the meat is very simlar to chicken. The white meat for alligator is the jaw meat and tail meat. So those are the specific meat portions of the crocodile you probably want to try (in the future).
Shame you didn't get to go to Sydney. Lots of great places to try. Chinatown, Koreatown, Frango's, Ogalo just to name a few. Maybe Next time. Hope you enjoyed your Off Camera places too. 'Roo Stew' is quite common here...definitely an acquired taste. Now a Kangaroo Curry called 'Kurroo' or 'Curroo' THAT would be Interesting!
Kudos to you ... roo is a great meat, we eat at least once a week. Its better when marinated and seared. The taste is irony and it is a lean meat. And it is a great way of being sustainable. Thanks for all the great videos, definitely come back. Open invite to you and yours to a Family Sunday BBQ
Kangaroo is real hard to cook well, maybe if you went to a sit down place might've been a lil better than delivered. But yes, we have way too many Kangaroos in Aus, so feel free to come often and eat more.
Lots of Strayans think its awful meat. Im from New Zealand, and its my favourite meat out of everything ive eaten. Ive had your standard stuff... Cow, chicken, sheep, deer and pig... In Aussie, I had crocodile, ox and kangaroo. Kangaroo is a slight leap above everything else for me. The texture, the slight gaminess, the overall taste. Id eat roo, most days of the week.
yeah it's real healthy too. Though the flavour depends a lot on the location, breed, climate, and season. I've had some that was delicious, and some that was pretty vile. I reckon a lot of aussies give it a try, go for the cheap stuff by the pet food section in Coles, have a bad experience, then get turned off for life.
You need some gravy. That looks so dry. Maybe a kangaroo curry or ground kangaroo? I would like to try stir frying it. Kangaroos are in plague proportions and a farmer once told me, for every kangaroo that lives, that's one less sheep he can sustain. Great video. We don't see it in every shop and usually just a few cuts.
When I've eaten kangaroo in restaurants it has been very tender. You could slice through it like butter. But they always looker 'pinker' than the meat you're eating here. I would agree yours has been overcooked, which would account for the reduced tenderness.
I prefer my roo in a stew. Like a beef stew but roo. Slow cooked for a couple of hours. Swap out bay leaves for lemon myrtle leaves. Kangaroo has to be cooked medium rare if eating steak.
I just bought some roo meat at Coles, burger patties, and stir fry strips are the go. Roo meat when it's butchered doesn't come in big beef steak cuts. The tail is supposed to be the best bit.
Bang on with your Kangaroo harvesting spill Ben, totally ok to eat them as far as Aussies are concerned, and as you said, they are hunted by specific people to control the population (for their own good) so ethical as well.
Salt, pepper, garlic and lemon juice squeezed onto your kangaroo steak to tenderise it and chuck it on the grill and you'll have yourself a real good kangaroo steak
This Man has the whole periodic table of elements, but chooses zinc, a metal famous for being the 1940s diner countertop. I have no idea what this means.
Kangaroo is very lean a lot less fat but higher in iron, protein and omega 3. Beef has more zinc. And yes my uncle makes a mean Roo stew and much better had that way in my opinion
That kangaroo is definitely having a fight in your stomach
WTF does that even mean?!
@@lordhammerwind Kangaroos in Australia fight people
@@SirYeoj ...
@@lordhammerwind Cool, right?
@@lordhammerwindSplendid, perhaps?
‘you can definitely tell that’s a marsupial’.
😆🤣😂
I’m so lost can someone explain what that means lmao
@@mysticgarcia6898 it would be like eating a beef steak and being like ‘you can definitely tell that’s a mammal’.
@@chunkymilk Kangaroos are mammals too.
@@sneer0101 did i say they weren’t?
"That's a marsupial".....DEAD 😂
I laughed out loud when he said that 😂😂😂
Its was so outta left field 😂 but def tracks for Ben
😆🤣😂🍻🍺👊
Hahahahaha lemme google that
I’m so lost can someone explain what that means lmao
BenDeen's most healthiest meal ever recorded
Now that I think about it, it genuinely could be.
@@Krenisphia There's one video of his titled "The Healthiest Meal I've Ever Had" from 5 years ago, but this could have that one beat.
Have loved having you down under! Genuinely have been refreshing your page daily to find new Aussie vids. Hope you come back/enjoyed the vibes
Hope you enjoyed the food here in Australia. Thanks for covering such a good variety of things over the stay.
this dude bendeen still hasnt taken out the metal in his dryer💀
It's a zipper 100%
i just know bendover
Fr I was wondering if anyone else noticed 😂
That is absolutely overcooked, not by a huge degree, but it is not medium rare.
Looks like carry over cooking. Roo is unforgiving, 20s too long will ruin it, no joke. Also there was no sauce to go with it and in my expereince a sweet jus with a lot of body does a lot to help the texture of roo.
@daoji6373 you cant win though I've heard it's only safe to eat cooked throughout but this also makes it dry?
@@kamadowoah4584 that is certainly false Roo like beef can be eaten raw, that said it's best cooked.
@@agsesperez interesting. Cheers
just shutup, jesus christ man.
Glad to hear you liked Australia, if you get the chance again I can Recommend Brisbane / Gold Coast in Queensland, should also save you about 2hrs flight time each way if you are coming from Seoul.
You are definitely always welcomed back to this country! hope to see you again one day
It's been great having you in OZ mate doing your great reviews of our foods. Happy trails fella.
Takes bite “ you can definitely tell thats a marsupial” 😂😂😂 hope you enjoyed Aus mate 🇦🇺
Not much longer before he’ll be drinking dolphin milk to wash down the chipmunk feet. 🤣
Lol
« You can definitely tell that’s a marsupial » 😂😂😂
Thanks for coming bro, hope you have you back again.
I apreciate you educating people about how Kangaroo meat is ethical and sustainable. Most people freak out when an Australian says we eat Kangaroo.
I might be wrong but as an Australian I feel like Roo is one of those meats you try once and never go out of your way to eat again... It's not bad but..
also really depends on who cooks it and style. I've only eaten it a few times too
It’s great if you marinade it before grilling or frying. I tenderise it first then marinade it in oyster sauce and soy, garlic and chilli.
I'm Aussie. I've been cooking 'roo for years. It's so lean that it's easy to cardboard. The best method is to velvet it, then cook it any way ya want. Cooee!
I hope you had a wonderful time in our Continent. I hope to see you back here again, maybe come to Sydney on the next trip around.
Forgot the dang dryer again! 😂
I’ve never even thought of eating kangaroo 💀
Exactly!
I’ve seen kangaroos meat for 🫕 at my local grocery store here in San Diego California 🇺🇸
More people should be eating it. We have too many kangaroos
bro got BEEF with kangaroos @@y.f8139
Kangaroo is an extremely sustainable source of meat in Australia. Cattle on the other hand is terrible in terms of the resources and land required.
Hope you loved Aus, glad you came🤙
Kangaroo is so lean, you have to have it as close to rare as possible. These guys ruined those cuts and did Ben dirty.
2:13 🎵 The Dryer Jam is BACK !!! LMAO 😂
Have loved watching this series. Coke back to Australia soon Ben! So much more for you to try
If you ever go South Africa 🇿🇦 you should try Ostriche !!
If this was Ben’s first time eating kangaroo then it wasn’t his second time
So true
Nice Ben Dean! ❤Thanks for another great food review/Mukbang.🎉
Skippy the bush kangaroo 😄 Aussie version of Lassie in America. I am a Aussie only had kangaroo once made me sick. They have cook it the right way hope yours was cooked right 😅. Maybe like a rabbit or deer meat?
Ben you need to make a "my thoughts on Australia" video like you did with Japan, it would be very interesting!
I never thought I would hear Ben say "certified shooters" lmao

The white meat for alligator is the jaw meat and tail meat. So those are the specific meat portions of the crocodile you probably want to try (in the future).
No way! You eat Skippy!? 🦘
Roo is definitely something different...
Depends a lot on the season, breed & location. It can vary from overwhelmingly gamey & tough, to being subtly sweet & smoky.
This is one of the most Ben Deen moments out there
I agree with you when it comes to eating something like kangaroo, I would throw it in a stew would be the way to eat it. 🎉
Nice Australian wine? Code phrase received , Send in the troops, Ben needs to be extracted post haste.
No joke though Australia has some of the best wines out there.
@@ori-yorudan worlds better than American wine 🤣

Could it be quinoa?
finally, man exacts revenge for all the "man fights kangaroo" videos
Im a pescatarian now, (catch,clean and cook fish) but growing up we tried everything and never said "yuck". Bravo for trying everything!¡
I’m Australian, and yes, kangaroo stew is delicious!! Way nicer than kangaroo steaks.
Legend welcome to Australia 🇦🇺 brother
Ben working on the ol soup strainer
never thought id hear Ben say "certified shooters"
I wish “Ring Lady” was with you to share her thoughts. 💁🏻♀️💕

Tonight I had Chicken Drumsticks that I grilled with some seasonings + hidden valley ranch powder butter I made
Ben Deen video, I click, life is simple.
try kangaroo burgers so good. emu is also good
Bro the marsupial line 😂
He’s a real Aussie now
What a massive first bite 😂

Roo the day Ben Deen starts eatin' unique meats in your neighborhood...

Straight up shooters
Now I wanna try some Roo Stew.

Kangaroo meatballs made with herbs and spices and a small amout of goose fat is soooo nice
Kangaroo is actually quite nice. I enjoyed it when I tried it.
rare footage of ben eating veggies

Oh boy oh boy!!! I love u
Ben Deen with the ethically-sourced disclaimer, ready to eat the roo. Looks beefy
Brother i hope u enjoyed it down here
Very easy to over cook it , very nice with orange and pomegranate .
Cheers
Which country are you headed next? New zealand?
gotta try alligator next
It’s crocodile in Australia.
My cousins cat ate raw roo most of her life. She was 21 years old and passed when she was squished by a car. Pretty good going really.
Ben casually eating an overgrown rat
Roo is very tasty, had it a few times
Ben u gonna eat raccoon ankles next??
😅😅😅
Kangaroo isn’t random we eat it all the time. Never heard of a raccoon ankle sounds like a weird animal
I'm willing to try Donkey butt 🫏
doing the laundry again i see Ben 🧺🤣
Never thought ppl eat kangaroo but still it seems not tastier than beef or lamb
Try Jollibee!
I thought he lived in Australia now 😭😭😭
Roo is super lean. If you ever really look at one, they are jacked. Not a lot of fat to add moisture
Never seen Ben eat his vegetables! 😂
BenDeen are you doing your laundry? lol
I prefer my roo in a stew. Like a beef stew but roo. Slow cooked for a couple of hours. Swap out bay leaves for lemon myrtle leaves. Kangaroo has to be cooked medium rare if eating steak.
I thought this was Min Woo Lee 😂
Kangaroo cooked right is one of my favorite meat ever
Kangaroo is fine to eat, its very sustainable and the animals roam free. It has a gamey taste but it lends itself well to stir fry
Ima quote “first time eatin marsupial”
Yup kangaroos are pests in some parts of Australia.. kangaroo is widely available in all major grocers aswell.
That washing machine is causing you trouble bro
Question for real Ozzys...is Roo mince a more common way to eat Skippy?
I just bought some roo meat at Coles, burger patties, and stir fry strips are the go. Roo meat when it's butchered doesn't come in big beef steak cuts. The tail is supposed to be the best bit.
You can get mince but tbh it's not a commonly eaten meat we still eat more beef chicken lamb etc
Can you eat the pouch?
And suddenly the comment section had turned into a *Reddit comment section*
Bang on with your Kangaroo harvesting spill Ben, totally ok to eat them as far as Aussies are concerned, and as you said, they are hunted by specific people to control the population (for their own good) so ethical as well.
I'm an Aussie and I think I would need to be paid to eat it, maybe some gravy
I've lived in Australia for 27 years and I've never had kangaroo lol
noooooooooooooo don't leave us brooo
Salt, pepper, garlic and lemon juice squeezed onto your kangaroo steak to tenderise it and chuck it on the grill and you'll have yourself a real good kangaroo steak
This Man has the whole periodic table of elements, but chooses zinc, a metal famous for being the 1940s diner countertop. I have no idea what this means.
Kangaroo tail soup is highly recommended
Kangaroo is very lean a lot less fat but higher in iron, protein and omega 3. Beef has more zinc.
And yes my uncle makes a mean Roo stew and much better had that way in my opinion
