Weird meats update

[ffutures]

I was in Hammersmith today and stopped by a much larger Iceland store in King Street that pretty much the whole range of their "unusual" meat products. I got a pack of buffalo burgers for £2.50 and kangaroo burgers for £1.50; they also had the crocodile burgers at £3, which I felt was a bit too expensive since they were described as tasting like chicken, and the boar sausages at I think £3.50 - I forgot to write down prices and can't now remember the rest. Probably won't get round to eating them for a few days, I had a burger for lunch yesterday. This branch also had their Atomic Chicken Vindaloo and my taste buds still feel seared several hours after eating one, but in a GOOD way.

Yum! Buffalo/bison burgers are good! And healthier. That's actually a fairly common one out here on the Canadian prairies where I am. Bison specialty farmers - bring back the species from endangered and eat em :P

I assume that's where they come from.

I really, really like bison. Just remember, unless it's cut with another meat, the fat content is VERY low. When I can afford the steaks, I cook them in a skillet with some extra fat (olive oil or somesuch).

I've had buffalo burgers before, that's pretty much how I cooked them.

Used to be a restaurant round here that did buffalo steak fairly regularly. Lovely stuff, gently fried and with simple vegetables. That chef made minimalism into an art.

Buffalo steak sounds lovely but for some reason Iceland aren't offering it.
