Title: Ostrich steak.
Post by: Field Marshal Dr. Opti on 30 March 2018, 17:14:06
Quite expensive at £4.99 for a mere 300g, but I thought I'd give them a try.


Any experience, any good?

I'm hoping it doesn't turn out to be as tough and gristle prone as STMO's ballbag. :-\

Not ever tried it.  Well, not that I remember, but there are periods of my youth that are a bit hazy ::)

a local used to breed them, big ugly buggers, I often wondered how he would wring their necks.

It's dark meat more like beef than chicken. I tried kangaroo meat which tasted very much like beef steak.

Better for you? Are we turning into a bunch of girlies then? Men eat a whole packet of bacon on half a white loaf for breakfast, a kebab for lunch and red meat of some sort for tea.
Ostrich indeed. Pah.

To wash it down I've bought a couple of bottles of gin and a couple of bottles of 46 per cent Russian vodka.

.......along with a case of Hop House 13 lager.

I'm not driving tonight.
