Yes, you can eat them, but why would you want to? [:'(]





BTW, I'd keep an eye on that buddy of yours if I were you...

Fried hog nuts are delicious, also known as rocky mountain oysters to us rednecks. They are like eating small tenderloin nuggets.

Mountain oysters can be hog;calf;lamb or other.
Deer fries tast like lamb fries.

Recipe
Skin and slice long way into halves or quaters vdepending on size.
Soak overnight in salt water . Roll in seasoned flour with a little meal mixed in. Fry to golden and don't forget the milk gravey.
I like them for breakfast.
I have several friends who save for me.

Dipits...I will try this recipe and sneak it onsomebodys plate to get the feedback:D..Then I MIGHT try it myself..My hunting buddies always get drunk after the hunt so I may pull out a bowl full and tell them my wife made it for them:D..Nothing like a little humor at hunting camp..

RE: Fried Deer Nuts ???

Count me out on this one. Just the idea of eating deer nuts is gross.

Wow - I think I would get a pain in my goin when I chewed down on one of those. I wonder if the indians ate em? That one guy in Apocolypto ate nuts and the other guys just laughed at him...

RE: Fried Deer Nuts ???
 
IDK, I'll try most anything but I don't know if I could do that. I'm with you DJ, I'd be feeling the pain. I'm all for using as much of the deer as possible, but c'mon, make a knife handle from the ribs or something, a jacket from the hide. Don't eat the nuts, that's just insulting the deer.

If you ever see a cow with nuts be sure to take a picture for the scientific journals, usually it's only the bulls that have them...;)

RE: Fried Deer Nuts ???
 
Ok kevin ,

you got me there. But, I guess if you found nuts on a COW, I think I would be less likely to eat those than if they came off a Bull. [:'(][:'(][:'(][:'(]

The only time I've ever seen a cow with nuts behind it was one that was getting lucky at the time, and I definitely wouldn't have tried to eat those...[&:] :D

I've told my son when he gets his first buck that it isa hunting camp tradition that you have to eat the buck's nuts. Of course we'll bring em back to camp and swap em out with meatballs...and he is looking forward to it, cause I've told him all the good hunters eat em.

As for eating them for real...notta chance

No matter what they are, how you make em, or how they taste.
When it is all said and done.... You just ate BALLS!!!!!

We usually quarter them the long way and soak in a little brine overnite. Shake them in a bag (no pun intended) with some flour, salt and pepper. Then deepfry them till they float. Stir them with some BW3 wing sauce and bake on a cookie sheet. We call em Buffalo Balls-Leota style. Best served with beer. lots of beer.

Rhody Hunter 11-10-2007 12:59 PM

RE: Fried Deer Nuts ???
 
no i'm not going to try that [:-]not that desperate for meat. i'd have to be starving to death first even then i'd have to think about it

jerseyhunter 11-11-2007 11:55 AM

RE: Fried Deer Nuts ???
 
It's not the idea of eating them is bad, it's what's in them that seems to be the problem.:D

ericstacy 11-11-2007 08:25 PM

RE: Fried Deer Nuts ???
 
My question is who was the first man to look at them and say , "Hey, we could fry them suckers up! Gotta be tasty." Still get a tingly feeling in the groin every time I think about them being sliced up and fried.
Really, I'm sure people will eat them and ENJOY them, BUT........just not for me! Thought issue..

Just to jump in on this thread. I know that it is an old thread. Calf fries are pretty darn good. I eat them every chance I can. That was one thing that was looked forward to at weaning time.

rocky mountain oysters are some good stuff and im no redneck, tried them when i was around 12yrs old. i havent tried deer nuts but bull fries i ll eat all day long believe it or not it tastes like tenderloin.just my honest opinion.
