Eating kangaroo is not illegal in the US as previously posted.
Kangaroo is a meat eaten in many places all over the world. It is a red meat like beef and is very high in protein but low in fat making it one of the better red meat choices.
In Altlanta I believe you can get it in Star Provissions, Altanta Farmers Market and Morningside Farmers Market.
Kangaroo is most commonly found in the form of steaks, but can also be found as burgers.
It is best cooked using quick methods such as pan frying, grilling or on the BBQ.
Further information and correction:
The only thing illegal about kangaroos in the US or anywhere else is the keeping of them as pets. Anyone who sells kangaroos or wallabies overseas is, in effect, flouting Australian law by exploiting them for commercial purposes.
Note that kangaroo meat is NOT a farmed meat in Australia, or anywhere else. Australian kangaroo meat is harvested from wild populations by licensed hunters. The animals are currently not farmed (as of 2014) although there has been some investigation into the feasibility of farming them. Kangaroo harvesters must have a licence and pass a Government approved course where they are given instruction in laws controlling kangaroo harvesting, meat hygiene and animal welfare.
