Have a heart!

[Angry Perch]

Fresh blacktail heart from yesterday. Trimmed off fat and arteries.
Sectioned into chambers, trimmed the inside, and cut into strips.
Seasoned with salt, pepper, fresh garlic and rosemary, and tossed
in a ziplock with olive oil and balsamic. Will marinate for a day,
then go on a screaming hot grill just long enough to get a little char.

That looks really good!

Beautiful meat.

I didn't feel like another Tree Farm spike needed his own thread!

Awesome.  I would trade heart pound for pound for backstrap every day of the week.  I have also been known to stop by and ask guys if they were taking their heart out of gut piles.

Just threw a couple strips on bamboo skewers
and grilled them just until warm in the middle.
Wife and I are in heaven. Also had a few pieces
of liver and some tenderloin chunks. I love the
first couple days after a successful deer hunt.

Best part of the whole animal!

He is getting his own thread, one piece at a time. 

Looks really good man.

Speaking of deer parts, he was so full of food, he looked bloated.
I was afraid he'd explode when I opened him up. This is his stomach
With my size 13 boot for reference. Is this normal?

Something popped that's for sure; that green stuff in the pic is stomach or intestinal matter. Couldn't of smelled good!

After I got it out on the ground, my curiosity got the best of me. I probably wont do that again!

And I've been known to cut the tounge out of buddies deer and elk also...   my hinting buddy swears by less than day old liver... I promised him I would try...

Good job AP.  I love me some heart.  Wife thinks it's disgusting, but I slip a bit into the sausage regularly....  I got a monster moose heart in the freezer.  Might try something like that.
