About Emu meat
Emu meat is the edible flesh of emu, a large flightless bird. It is sold as cuts such as steaks and roasts, and may also be minced or processed; the record does not specify a cut or processing method.
The meat is generally dark red and lean, with a mild flavour often compared with other red meats. It can be cooked as a steak, roast, or minced ingredient, though tenderness and cooking behaviour vary with the cut and preparation.
