N E 450 No2Fruits of the Hunt
Today I am "home alone", and it is time for lunch. I pour a glass of Merlot and look in the freezer. I find the heart from the pig I shot on the DRSS hunt. I find some black bear steaks from a bear I killed in Idaho in 2004.
A little spice, a little flour, a litle olive oil, and a cast iron skillet, some lima beans in a seperate pot, and VOILA a meal fit for a KING.
All I can say is MMMMMMM GOOD.
Now it is time for a little Single Malt Scotch... Ardbeg... Nectar of the Gods.

Pig heart eh? What is the taste like? It sounds like it might just be good!

N E 450 No2fusino,
Heart is a muscle just like any other "meat" of the animal, except it is a lot more dense, somewhat like a gizzard. I always save the heart of deer, wild pigs, bear and all other game where possible. I find it very tasty.
I also save the heart, liver, and gizzard of all the game birds I shoot, ducks, dove, quail turkey, grouse etc.
It is some of the best eating around.
I flour it and fry it in olive oil.
Just like all game meat, the secret is not to over cook it.

N E 450 No2Also the liver from a young doe deer or a young pig is very tasty fried in the same manner as above.

N E 450 No2fusino,
Be sure and use olive oil.
My wife even cooks our chicken wings with it.
We use it for all of our frying.
