Come on guys! The only way to cook up a heart is to stuff it and bake it!!!
We trim up our deer and elk hearts, trim off any fat.
Cut the top of the heart off, and trim out any connective tissues you see in the chambers.
Mince up an entire apple with skin on, and an entire onion. Mix in a container, add some salt and pepper.
Stuff your heart with the apple/onion mixture.
Cram it full, the heart will expand a whole lot.
Place the heart in a pan or tray and bake in the oven at moderate heat till no red juices flow from it.
(sometimes we lace a few strips of bacon over the heart)
After baked, cut the heart into slabs, then cut the slabs into houerderve sized pieces.
Place the heart with the apple/onion debris out for your hunters to eat as a pre-dinner treat.
Toothpicks or plastic forks for guys to enjoy. It will all get eaten.
Enjoy.
Really good.
