Im a big fan of Andrew Zimmerns Bizarre Foods and Anthony Bourdains No Reservations. In a lot of their shows they wind up eating lungs, kidney, brains and just about anything else that gets pulled out of a critter.
I guess for us, lungs are often out of the picture but how about the rest of that stuff. Liver and heart are no brainers (pardon the pun) but how bout kidneys, tripe and oysters. Tongue is something my Grandma was fond of along with snout, ears and chicharons (pork rinds) but Id like to hear what some of you folks have cooked up from commonly discarded organs and such.
It really does bother me to leave such a pile to the yotes and Im starting to think that they can feed themselves anyway.

All I have to say, is that I lived in Korea for 2 years, and partook in every aspect of their culture.

The only innards I eat are the tenderloins.

Have had white-tail heart before and I thought it was pretty good. It was slightly chewy but I would eat it again for sure.

Where I use to hunt in KY.There are a bunch of Menenites(not sure how to spell it).They are similar to the Amish we have near us.Anyway,They were thrilled to have the innards of any deer we killed.Other then the heart and liver they made soup of the lungs.I'm not sure what they did with the intestines,unless it was to make sausage casings.

My gradmother loved brains.She claimed a tongue was the best sandwich meat going.She also made blood pudding.I dont remember eating any of this stuff,but I'm sure I did when I was young.That women could cook!!!

I used to eat heart and liver. But with the CWD scare here in WI I have kind of given that up. The claim is that the prions that they were worried about are more concentrated in the organs, so that was my one concession to worrying about eating a deer that has the potential of carrying CWD. Personally, I don't think it is much of a worry, but I did stop eating organs anyway.

The only organ meat I eat is the liver. If I ever start getting gout like my dad I guess I won't eat that either.

I'll stick with the steaks,chops,tenderloins and the other things that look like meat!!

Ohhh Bill, blood pudding was another of Grams favs, she would make it into sausage , morsilla she used to call it but it would be hard to get from a deer unless you gutted them at home. Im still hurting from my November deer drag and tend to let em drain real good along with leaving the feet, tail and belly hide where they lay.

heart, liver and sometimes kidneys.....my uncle uses his to make a "liver mush" much like pork liver mush.....(Southeners will know what I am talking about)

Moose cheeks: Not bad.
Moose snout:chewy (like chicken's feet)
Moose kidney:good, but be sure to rinse well in cold water.
Moose brains: pretty darn fine mixed with scrambled eggs and habanero sauce.
Moose tongue (cold) on rye with pepper and seed mustard:amazing
Moose heart:stuffed with wild rice, slow roasted:see moose tongue.
Moose liver:better like liver, cuz it's huuuuge!
Moose prairie oysters: same as any others.

I've eaten everything from snakes to bugs, seal meat to fish eyes, and everything in between. But it's hard to find a moose with inedible parts on 'em...

If I had ever had a chance to enjoy liver, the Army took that out of play with their liver and onions...disgusting. Mountain oysters are pretty tasty, but I'll leave the rest of the gutpile to the coyotes and magpies.

Damn them moose. Wish we could get them here other than road kill, which reminds me,,,,,,,,, awww never mind.
