RE: The Heart
Just the thought of eating any organ, heart, liver, kidneys, whatever makes me want to freakin puke.
I was talking to a neighbor about a recent bowkill last week and he asked me if I was plannin on cooking the "chitlins." I nearly lost it right there in the front yard. [:'(][:'(][:'(]

RE: The Heart
After the tenderloins, heart is my second favorite meat on a deer. Liver, not a chance...I'll have a bite every few years, and it reconfirms why I don't like it.
In my circle of hunting buds, not eating the heart or hanging a buck's "package" in a treeangers the deer gods.

RE: The Heart
I love chicken liver, calf's liver... but not so much deer liver. You have to soak the heck out of it to pull enough blood out.Otherwise it'stoo strong. Mostly I feed the rawlivers to my dogs.
Livers aren't like oil filters. They don't hold crud in, they seperate it out.

RE: The Heart
My grandfather used to fix liver at deer camp. He always soaked it in salt water (I think) then cooked it up. Man that stuff was good. I have tried it since and can't do it like he did. So I leave it.
Never tried the heart. If I found a good way to do it or tried it sometime I would and may like it... As for kindneys ....I'm not so sure... Something unapealing about that to me. Even though I have had liver and liked it kidneys seem a little beyond. Of courseif given the chance I'd probably try it. I just doubt I'll ever do it on my own.
