I like the muthaphuckin' 8 Ball.

If you see kamo, tell him the Hawks are moving forward and he should be nervous.

We'll see, both about who will go to the dance, and more importantly, whose word is good on settling up, whatever the final result. I've got my suspicions. Talk is cheap. It takes money to buy whiskey (or Olde English 800 in your case).

My question is ... Do y'all eat strange stuff like gizzards (wild goose is best), elk/moose/deer heart and tongues?

Steve,

Yes, we eat all bird hearts and gizzards some livers-mostly grouse. Rabbit heart too.

Elk and deer heart is eaten up immediately. The liver and brains If I am where I can get them cooled and rinsed.

Oddly, I have never had tongue by itself [in headcheese yes]. I will have to try some.

Dad liked mountain oysters. I have never tried any.

KFC used to have the gizzards at the store on Powell. Yummy!

Remember killing the hogs, rolling them in a hot ash bath and scraping the hairs with the metal cup thingie. Then, butchering.

The sausage, we'd grind and fry out the patties and put them in a crock-jar with fat all around and over the top. The sausage was sealed so well, it would keep forever. So, so, so good.

Blessings,

Steve


Oh man, and our priest, Father Arthur would always be there and he'd always eat the pig ears out of the wash pot BEFORE they could be put into breakfast sausage BUT no one would stop him!!!

Serious memories, thanks.


Pickled pig ears - now you are talking! Father Arthur would have loved being on the farm with me when my grandparents were still with us.

I went to Cleveland High School (Class of 61) and there was a large drive-in at the place where Foster splits off of Powell. The drive-in was named The Speck and gals on roller-skates used to take your order and bring it to your car. Yep, they set a little table thingie on the side of your car (you had to roll your window up about an inch).

The Speck's specialty was broasted chicken and hamburgers. My favorite on the menu was very popular also. For .99 cents, you got a tub of slow-cooked gizzards & gravy and another tub of mashed potatoes with creamery butter. Man, that was soooo delicious.

The Speck is gone now, but not the memories.

God Bless,

Steve

I was devastated when KFC took fried chicken livers off the menu. My mother fed us beef heart and tongue quite often when my sisters and I were little and to this day, I love me a good lengua burrito - menudo, too.

Never ate brains or sweet-breads but would in a heart beat if offered.

Steve,

Love heart and tongue. My wife loves gizzards , me not so much but can eat them. Can do liver occasionally. We like to pressure cook the heart for about 30 minutes then do a low bush cranberry stuffing and cook it in a covered roaster for about 45-60 minutes. That makes some tender and delicious heart.

I tried a new twist on gizzards last night after watching The Beverly Hillbillies and hearing Jethro talk about gizzards and gravy. Yesterday at lunch I browned off a bunch of chicken gizzards in a skillet and then threw them in a pyrex dish that has a lid. I then made milk gravy from the pan drippings and poured it over the browned gizzards in the dish. Covered the dish and placed it in a 250 degree oven where it sat until I got home after work. Steamed some asparagus. Made a pot of long grain rice, and ladled them gizzards and gravy over a healthy serving.

Heaven. The gizzards were fork tender. Kinda like country style steak but mo' better.

Always save the hearts from deer and especially moose. Mary cooks them up stuffed with onions and wrapped in bacon. We love 'em, and sandwiches the next couple days are very good as well -- some dark rye bread, and some dijon mustard. It's good.

That is a moose heart, cleaned and ready for the fixin's. I think it weighed 8 pounds. Lots of eating on one of those things, and if it is slow roasted at 3oo dwgrees wrapped in bacon, the end result is meat that will melt in your mouth tender.

We used to eat the tongues too, but the girls weren't as fond of them as I was.
