I rinse it really well and soak it over night in water and seasoning - your choice. Then slice it real thin in like rings. Imagine onion rings but with meat. Cut out the veins and roll in flour. Dice up a onion. ?Heat up a skillet really hot with a oil and fast fry it browning the flour and onions. Serve with mashed potatoes or whatever your liking..

In the water I like to use Johnny's aujue dip liquid. I know I misspelled that.

Yum yum - good eats

Yep, click here..;   http://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,16011.0.html

Posted elsewhere but here goes...

Baked, Stuffed Deer Heart.

Rinse, trim all fat, cut top off the heart. Look inside and remove the little connective stringy thingys in each chamber...not too many.... rinse again.

Stuffing; in a bowl, mix one diced apple, one diced onion, a bunch of pepper, some salt. Mix well, and then cram into the heart as best as you can, heart will bulge and grow alot, keep cramming. Bake heart laying in a pie tin or similar in your oven. Pour remaining apple/onion mix around the heart, cover heart with two strips of bacon. Bake until done. No pink left, meat sort of turns grey to just a hint of purple.

Let cool a bit, then cut up into chunks and serve on a plate for the boys, with all the stuffing. Best eaten with your fingers or a fork, beer in the other hand... We do the heart as an hourderve' before dinner. Very excellent table fare.

I do 2 things with mine.  Clean it very well and then simmer in some salted water until tender.  Slice thin and eat it on sandwiches with mustard and raw onions.  Second is to take the simmered heart and slice thin.  Put it in mason jars with raw onions and fill the jars with a pickling brine.  Let sit for a couple weeks in the fridge and then eat it on crackers.  That's my favorite.

Other times I just throw it into the sausage meat.

Well no fajitas or sandwiches for me this year.  Half a heart doesn't make much.  Bummer......But a damn good shot.   :lol4:  I didn't need no damn heart anyway.  I'd rather take the great shot!

another trick for heart and liver is dip it in hot water for a couple seconds before you fry it up, for some reason it seems to tendorize it a bit.

Dang, I had a similar heart this year.  Blew the sumbitch to pieces.  Oh well, she didn't go very far.

Iceman, you will NOT be dissapointed.  I use a little bit more water than vinegar for the brine with a 1/2 tsp of salt per quart and a couple pinches of pickling spice (with cloves picked out, YUK, I hate the flavor of those.)

My favorite is to cut the fat bits off and just toss the hearts in a pot of water with garlic, salt and pepper. Boil them for about 30 min, and then when cool, place them in a gallon zip-lock for a day or two. Then it's all about the thin sliced, roast-beef-style, boiled heart and mayo sandwitches. So good!
May the morning silence be broken with the wisp of vanes trailing blades to their mark.
