I've not eaten badger but the two people I know who have said it's a bit like lamb but with a very gamey, somewhat off-putting smell.
It's good as a ham. You need to be careful though as being in possession of a live one is a crime and the onus is on you to prove it was dead when it entered your possession.
Roadkill is great imo. If you actively want it, go out for a country ride reasonably early in the morning and you'll likely find a clipped pigeon or pheasant that's still warm with barely a mark on it.
