Look in the frozen section, where they keep the buffalo, pheasants, quail, and other specialty meats. <BR/><BR/>There are two forms available: small steaks and pre-seasoned, sliced meat. The second type is probably faster and easier to cook, but I'd suggest using the whole steaks if possible and season them to your liking. <BR/><BR/>You can see one of the steaks in a <A HREF="http://wine-by-benito.blogspot.com/2008/06/benito-vs-ostrich.html" REL="nofollow">post from June</A>.Benitohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15642446480589939085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10338337.post-34723986838179954822009-02-23T12:13:00.000-08:002009-02-23T12:13:00.000-08:00Curious: where did you get ostrich in Memphis?

The birds are, however, notoriously difficult and dangerous to raise, and I don't think you'll be seeing Ostrich Gorditas at Taco Bell any time soon. <BR/><BR/>Samantha,<BR/><BR/>I was really surprised, but happy with the results.
