Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 275°F. Rub 2 lbs kangaroo rump roast evenly with 3 tbsp olive oil, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 1/2 tsp sea salt, 1 tsp black pepper, and 1 tbsp ground wattleseed. Place 2 rosemary sprigs on top.
- Step 2: Transfer the roast to a roasting tray and cook low and slow for 1 hour 45 minutes until an internal temperature of 125°F for medium-rare is reached.
- Step 3: Remove the roast from the oven and cover loosely with foil to rest for 15 minutes.
- Step 4: Meanwhile, place the roasting tray over medium heat on the stove, add 1/2 cup red wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up browned bits; add 2 cups beef stock and simmer until reduced by half.
- Step 5: Stir in 2 tbsp butter to finish the jus until glossy and slightly thickened. Slice the kangaroo rump thinly and serve with the wattleseed jus spooned over.
