That was a .44 caliber XTP "Straight Through The Heart", and I was to blame.

How far did she move? Even with no pump house left they can go longer than most people think.

My kids hate me when I mess up a deer heart. It's their favorite part of the deer .. my granddaughter's too.

How do you use/cook the heart. I have never used it in any way. I love chicken hearts and gizzards is it anything like those?

About 15 or 30 yards.

I normally cut it into cubes together with the kidneys and make a stew with it.

Kinda has the texture of a gizzard.  I usually cut it into rings, throw it in flour salt and pepper and fry it it in a skillet with bacon grease until its browned on the outside and pink on the inside.  Doesn't take long though.  Good stuff.

I do just like Tony. It can be in narrow strips too. Make sure to remove the valves and fat first.

Mark, they're not as good as chicken hearts .. in fact, nothing is as good as chicken hearts.  :no: 
Deer heart doesn't have that nut-like flavor like chicken hearts do. I learned to love chicken hearts in college. They were 12 cents/lb in 1966. Now you can't get them unless you buy the whole chicken.

Just another reason to keep your own chickens !

Re: Practice "DOES" Make Perfect

But what do you do with the rest of the chicken???   

 

[Spitfire1]

Re: Practice "DOES" Make Perfect

Give it to the neighbours , Or donate it to KFC !

Is the heart chewy like chicken heart?

 

[patocazador]

Re: Practice "DOES" Make Perfect

Sort of chewy but not as much.
This thread got me hungry so we had deer heart for supper last night. Yummy.

This is an older photo but you get the idea. Deer heart, butter beans and mustard greens.

Re: Practice "DOES" Make Perfect

Lima beans look good. Im sure the heart is as well, somethings just taste better than they appear to the eye lol.  Like oysters or snails.

Re: Practice "DOES" Make Perfect

Haha oysters and snails are two more things that will never be seen on my plate! Lol
