We have found that the tail is the best bit, casseroled like neck chops but the meat on its own just tastes bland.

Females and younger ones meat cubed makes a great curry

Tell me more, please Marty. How do you prepare the tail? Just peel it open and chop it through the joints? To be honest I'd never thought about casserole tails... I'm keen to give that a go. The bigger the tails the better, or is a young one the way to go?
