Any recipes, or advice for cooking this meat?

It's my first time trying it, and I currently have a thick 'steak' in my freezer.

Thanks.

Treat it like another steak. It's basically the same but super super lean so don't overcook it or you'll have ostrich jerky in no time flat. Since it's so lean I vote you make some steak butter and slap a gob on top and let it melt for maximum yumminess.

I've never cooked it myself, but the first time I ate it my first thought was how much it reminded me of lamb- lol. I don't know if it really IS like lamb, but that's what it reminded my brain of.

Here in the UK, Wales, which is traditionally a lamb farming nation turned to ostrich maybe 20 years ago for a brief stint - it was odd seeing these birds running over countryside where lamb should be.

Yes, treat it like lamb - less fatty, but still a meat you want to long cook.

It is AMAZING curried!
