Years later, after I had come to grips with the shock I intentionally ordered an appetizer of lamb fries while on a ski trip in Bend. Going there on my own seemed to make all the difference. I actually think the criadillas tasted better though the texture of the lamb fries was much more to my liking. Both way better than raw shellfish oysters!
I do not see where mature deer, elk, sheep or bovine testicles would be worth the time and effort. I'd expect the strength of the taste and the softened texture would not be as good as the lamb and calf. Guess I'd have to ask a true cattleman about that...or KCKcker! In my mind the mature testicle just doesn't work. Though that first experience has proven, right or wrong, that my mind isn't going to allow the possibility of it passing my lips. Pretty sure that ain't going to happen :chuckle:

The last whitey I killed in Montana: the next day we saw a crow take off from the gut pile, hanging out of his beak was the bucks twig and berries, one of the funniest things I ever seen while hunting

I can't imagine being so desperate for something to eat! You know if you're really hungry you can always get a cheeseburger from mcdonalds for $1.00. Or, Top Ramen is cheap.

Maybe so? I'd rather eat the healthy alternative of natural raised elk balls than some saturated fat burger from heart attack central. :chuckle:

Arnt we as hunters taught through our mentors to use all edible and non edible parts of the animals we harvest? If you don't eat them you should at least donate them to the local food bank. :chuckle:

I have ate deer and elk. I basically gut them then slice them. Roll in flour, season, and fry. They are great. And they are very tender.
:yeah:
Deep Fried are very good as well.

Ok, I have to ask, what is a naturally raised elk ball? :chuckle: And for the record, I could be stuck on a deserted island starving to death and still not eat one, and I have eaten some pretty narly stuff.

My Nephews and I took the plunge and fried up the ones from his buck. I found very little taste to them, they were not horrible, nor were they excellent, just meh. Next I am going to try the ones from my moose this year, this has me a little worried cause there is a good chance he will be killed while in the rut :yike:

I was once the guy who said there would be no way in h3!! I'd be caught dead eating the “boys". A wise man and fellow HW member convinced me to try them. Let's just say “no nut left behind" is now the standard! Butterfly em' and batter them up in a little pancake flour with some garlic powder, salt & pepper and toss them in a frying pan with a little butter, and you're good to go! mmm-mmm good :tup:

American mountain men used to eat boudins or guts filled with chyme or partially digested food from the buffalo they killed. I'd eat oysters again before I tried Boudins.
