"No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." - Thomas Jefferson, Virginia Constitution, Draft 1, 1776
I went to the Buckhorn in Denver. I like Rocky Mountain Oysters. We were seated next to a couple with teen daughters. The dad ordered the sampler platter and commented on the chicken nugget looking things. Then, after the girls tasted them, told them what they were. Response: 'EEEEWWWWWW!".
Something I would pull...er...do to my kids.
They had an excellent elk tenderloin that I asked for bleu. You could have sliced it thin, and put it on rice and told someone they were eating expensive sushi. It was wonderful, and served with a quail glazed in prickly pear jelly and grilled over wood. One of my favorite restaurant meals in my life.
The Big Texan in Amarillo had a appetizer sampler platter with rattlesnake, rabbit, and lamb fries.
I like every mammal ball I have eaten fried, with sauce, even if it is just ketchup or Tobasco. I wouldn't refuse boiled, but, really?

Got to one of the tomahawk steaks we picked up at Red Raider meats over memorial day weekend.
I tried searing first, then cooking on indirect heat. Had the thermometer at the top, on the side, away from the bone. Pulled at 130 and tented, resting for 10 minutes. Strangely the outer part (where the thermometer was) was ~rare, but the inside center was medium well. Overcooked for my tastes.
So tomahawk steaks get a meh from me. Never had a steak vary so much. Also 2.5 lb steak cooked down a lot. More than enough for one but not enough for two. Plus difficult to grill veggies at the same time with the long bone.
The biggest fan (not my manicure)
Nothing fancy, but got some ribs going. Fairly generic salt/pepper rub, apple juice spritz, 225-ish over apple wood. Just want to get them done prior to work.
Sorta around sometimes for some of your shitty mod needs.
