I like heart and tongue...Haven't been able to get over the iron taste of liver and usually leave all the other guts alone. When I was a kid we would boil hearts and slice em into sandwich meat..Culinary school changed my way of thought on that and I prepare them a bunch of ways nowadays.

I really don't care for the heart, liver or the tongue. Won't try any of the other organs. Absolutely refuse to eat the brain, I'm not gonna be the first guy that gets CWD. Had turkey testicles once, so I think I've fulfilled my testicle quota for my lifetime.
Coyotes gotta eat too.

Heart is the only organ I will eat and it is fried at that. I did try it bacon wrapped and that turned out pretty good, just needed to go another 10 minutes in the oven. Growing up we HAD to eat the deer liver so I think that is a huge reason that every bullet, every arrow has miraculously made it to the liver after going through heart or lungs.

After field dressing a couple animals "gutless" style now under my belt, I don't mess with the "guts". [emoji38]

I do like heart and liver; once in a blue moon. If I want it, I just get some beef or calf liver from the butcher, fry it up with a pile of onions and get my fix-better yet, head to the truck stop when they have their liver and onions special...

I eat the following

heart
4- 1/4's
Backstraps
Tenderloins
Grind any usable/trimmable neck meat
Tender Loins
1 time a year I eat liver (Only once as its a family tradition and I prefer not to eat it...)

I would never eat a testicle of an animal I killed or any animal unless I was starving. lol

in which case ,I would chew the rear end out of a dead rino.

I would even then pass on mcain though.

Haven't tried liver, it doesn't seem appealing at all. I did gutless on my bull last year but decided I wanted to try the heart so I went in for that. It wasn't terrible

I have eaten deer liver a few times and don't really care for it but I'll eat it if if someone cooks it just to be polite. Tried heart once and didn't like it.
That being said I cooked a deer tongue last week and it was delicious. Tasted just like beef tongue only A LOT smaller. Simmered with onion, garlic,salt and pepper for about 3 hours. Peeled it after it cooled then sliced. Sadly it was barely enough for one sandwich. :(
I will definitely cook the next elk tongue I have access to.

If you are a real meat pro, then maybe you can recommend the best knife block and the best boning knife in particular? As it is impossible to cook a delicious dinner or serve a festive snack without a good kitchen knife - or even a few. You also cannot do without its help on a picnic or in a hike. Knives were among the first tools that our ancestors learned to make, and since then they have not lost their value. Fortunately, we are no longer in a stone age, and modern knives have become much more perfect and functional than their ancestors. Now they are made not from silicon fragments, but from high-strength steel, ceramics and space alloys based on titanium. How to choose your ideal assistant from all this variety?
