Default The Heart

OK - so in an effort not to get the tenderloin thread even further off course with more heart posts, I figured I'd start a new thread of its own...

Do you guys always remove the heart - or was it just a 'right of passage' type act when you shot your first deer? Also - post you're favorite cooking method - so far I've seen fried in bacon grease and fried in butter with onions, etc.

Would seem to me that the heart might be a tougher meat since it is always working. Any details on the texture? When I do get my first deer - unless there is something visibly wrong with it - I think I will be taking the heart to try it and see what its like. Who knows - maybe I'll end up always taking it - but I'll never know until I try it at least once.

I know I won't go near the liver, though - I'm not a big fan of eating filters and I can't stand beef or duck liver [:'(]
