Sausage Meat

Kangaroo sausage meat is seasoned mince for stuffing casings or forming patties and terrines. Very lean Australian game is deep red with a clean mineral taste and almost no marbling. Keep cold, test-fry seasoning, cook to a safe finish. Fat should baste rather than leave the mix dry. Spice blends from Australian contemporary and Indigenous traditions work well.
