Venison Heart

[radarmonkey]

Good stuff, beef heart too.

Do you prepare the beef heart the same way?

The deer I shot this year didn't have a heart.
In fact, most of the deer I've taken over the last several years didn't.




Meaning, my 150 grain 308 bullet turns it into liquid goo.

Neck. Shot.

Something about the texture of the meat makes me want to puke. My Dad loves organ meat, I give it to the dogs.

It's not "organ meat," it's a muscle just like other flesh with tendons and connective tissue, hence it tasting like, you know, venison. Liver, testicles, the stomach, intestines, etc. -- items made up of membranes or glands -- are organs.

Neck. Shot.

Or shoot through the lungs. Like the deer from which this heart originated.

Yep same.

 

[radarmonkey]

Yep same.

Thanks. I'll ask for mine next time we get a side of beef. I always get the liver and tongue but I've never done anything with the heart. I wonder if a pigs heart could be prepared the same way.

I tried it this year. Love chicken hearts but couldn't get past the texture of the deer heart. Maybe I prepared it wrong. Don't know.

Hearts are my favorite. Elk, deer, turkey, and duck hearts all get battered and fried.

The heart never hits the ground for us while dressing one unless we reach in there and can’t feel it clean it up wash cut into steaks roll in flour and fry

The heart is an organ, saying it’s not is…odd?
