Who eats the innards of their game?

Was that fraternity Eww Yucka Bubba? LOL

Heart and liver for me, too.  Roast heart with stuffing & mashed potatoes w/gravy.  Yummmmm.

Liver I eat 'cause we feel obligated - you don't waste food.  When I go out to eat about the last thing I'd order would be liver.  If food was tight we be cracking out the marrow and stuffing the blood and lungs in the intestines and making boudins.

Y'all are missing out, I actually like liver and occasionally order calf liver for dinner in the local diner.. I eat sweetbreads a couple of times a year too..

[David Mitchell]

As stated earlier, I believe, every toxin in the body gets filtered through the liver--I don't eat filters.

[twitchstick]

Yes I am a gut eater! I like liver and I like heart. I love a good rolled flank roast and of course the tenderlions. Willing to try more if I new the proper way to handle them. In my family growing up if you left the liver and heart behind you would get your a@# beat.

I eat the heart, liver and tongue of the deer I kill.  My father-in-law ate the brain (some sort of pudding) and his mother ate the eye's also.  The tongue is "excellent" pickled.

For me, coyotes, buzzards, and whatever other animal wants to feast, eats the innards of my game.

OH YEah Bruce ,i forgot you cooked up that heart! we must have been pretty marinaded up, cuz i Completly forgot about it, it must have been that peach moonshine whip brought along!! LOL  That was the second heart i had, we cooked up the one from my Wis buck also, i liked it. I'll do it again.

Heart is delicious, especially in a balsamic-vinegar reduction coupled with southern german dumplings as a side dish.
Liver is good, if you get rid of the "hide" and all other piping in it and don't overcook it.
I prefer to cut it in smaller pieces, my buddy prefers bigger chunks(floured). All together with caramelized onions. Great!
Or mince the liver and mix it with the german dumpling (spaetzle) dough. Prepare normally, fry liver spaeztles in pan with onions and scramble eggs over it.
I usually fry up the kidneys as well. Great tenderness!
Heart, liver etc. contain essential vitamins. Without those, your body will starve to death. Oh yeah, right, you take vitamin pills...

I hope none of you less adventurous folks arent stuffing big macs and whoppers in your face. They are some nasty vittles. Ill definately be trying some kidney and tongue this fall. But as in the past brains scare me and I dont enjoy liver too much.

[vintage-bears]

My mother inlaw!...........lol

[jefffunff]

the heart's the best part!never tried lungs or kidneys

[Mint]

I'll eat the heart and give the liver to my friend which he loves. My dog will get the kidneys.
Years ago i had a pitbull that would go crazy when she saw the deer hanging. She knew she was going to get some of the kidneys and some of the liver. It was so funny to watch since once i let her in the house she would go sit by her dish waiting for me to cook it up. Still miss that dog.

[Dave Bowers]

I never have in the past; like some other I would let the critters have it. But this year will be a first to try the heart, tongue, kidneys, testicles and maybe the liver (not really sold on that yet). I am looking forward to try these other cut of meat.

[Shane H]

Heart and liver, fine dining. Both those meals are big occasions in my family.

[Holm-Made]

I heard the Kidneys were good but you have to "boil the piss" out of them.  

[bill langer]

Venison heart is excellent, ate deer livers when I was a kid never did care for them. Connecticut dnr has a warning on deer liver consumption, if memory serves its because of the mercury in it. They suggest one serving a year from a young deer!

As long as the guts are left on the forest floor, nothing ever goes to waste.

Good eatin folks, Bill

[kennyb]

No organ meat for this hunter!! lol

[tradtusker]

you bet! best part

[johnis]

For wild animals as long they are healthy every part is good to eat.for domestic you must be more picky at least for the lungs.Thats what we do around here.
