Thread: Heartfelt thoughts over a beer

I've converted a few mates to veni heart (despite initial protests) while hunting. Nothing like it at the end of the day, butter in a frying pan on the camp fire. I take as much meat as I can, flaps,neck meat, offcuts, including the heart, tounge and if I can recover it the liver. Any meat offcuts or discards gets put in meal serves on baking paper into the freezer for the pup. Started taking full shoulder and legs (bone in) out so I can leave on the bone in the fridge, then all bones saved for pup tooth care. Love it.

I am pleased so many like it - the 5 years I spent with Forest Service not one of us ever cooked heart or liver despite living on venison basically every day - not one of us ate offal ever - so it is suprising many on here like it - well you can have it - no just dont like it

no I dont take them out- I will if cutting up a deer for someone else -but for my deep freeze no not for many years - to me they have a strange taste - cant put my finger on it - metallic - slightly tainted -no dont bother with them -

Tenderloin sliced thinly and dabbed in breadcrumbs, Fried in butter for 30 seconds a side s beautiful. Better than back steak in my opinion. It could be worse, people not eating hearts.. there are people out there who just won’t touch wild meat at all, supermarket stalkers
