Two of my favorite meats. If I could get some cheap-ish I’d definitely try it. However, nobody sells it locally and all online retailers want around $30 a pound, so that’s not happening.
Well, it’s basically beef without fat, so equivalent to a high quality lean steak. In addition, ostriches have more narrow climate requirements than cattle and can be considered more aggressive than cattle. It makes sense that it is expensive.
Gator didn’t taste like chicken when I tried it. It was slightly fishy and had a chew texture. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed in the experience.
I think a lot of restaurants don’t have good gator because it’s hardly ever ordered so who knows how freezer burned it is. I’ve have mixed experiences from bad to neutral.
When I tried it was like slightly fishy, chewy chicken. Not as bad as a bite of all gristle, but almost. I had it fried and breaded, it might do better in a stew or something to break it down.
They’re related to chickens so I would imagine white meat. Or taste like alligators do today, which also taste like chicken lol
So are ostriches and their meat looks like this (image stolen from American Ostrich Farms)
Duck too has red meat.
We raised Mascove’s and it was super interesting to see how red the meat was. Straight up looked like a beef steak.
That’s weird shaped potato
Shroom, my man. Shroom.
I thought you were full of shit, so I reverse image searched that and can confirm that delicious looking steak is ostrich meat.
Ostrich is really tasty. I highly recommend it.
Allegedly
It would take at least 2 people to eat an ostrich, maybe 3.
It’d have to be a sick ostrich.
It tastes somewhere between beef and turkey imo
