  • In the video, Seth takes down an Ohio Whitetail deer with a bow and arrow during Ohio's archery season. After field dressing the deer, he saves the heart to prepare and cook-before he even butchers the carcass! Seth demonstrates how to carefully trim the heart for the best eating experience, then shares his favorite way to season and cook it. Scott joins for the taste test, where you'll find out whether or not The Bearded Butchers approve of this black heart recipe!

    One of my favorites. My dad used to cut it thin and basically stir fry it and simmer in a mushroom gravy served over egg noodles. Mouth watering.

    Deer heart is severely underrated. It's not far off from regular steak as far as organ meat goes and is absolutely delicious

    Now even my 14 yr old son loves it!

    @dpuckett Před 8 měsíci +11

    Never been deer hunting but we did a lot of squirrel hunting with grandpa in SE Ohio. He loved squirrel and dumplings, good stuff. I remember getting to eat the hearts about the size of a cashew when grandma was frying them up.

    • @thomasnelson9767
      @thomasnelson9767 Před 8 měsíci +3

      My mom would put the heart in with the Squirrel and dumplings. It was very good.

      I remember visiting my uncle when he was 75. We talked about hunting and he thought how nice it would be to have a shredded squirrel sandwich. He told me to grab his 16 gauge shot gun and go get us a few. I did. I cleaned and cooked them. Seasoned them and I shared one of the greatest memories in my life, shredded squirrel sandwiches with my uncle .When I see him again.. we will enjoy hunting and enjoying Shredded Squirrel sandwiches again.

    @Grimthings Před 8 měsíci +12

    Heart is an absolute treat and something I look forward to every year. Especially elk heart. If you ever have the opportunity, you MUST try it. I usually fry up peppers, onions, and mushrooms with the heart.

    • @johnbaker6125
      @johnbaker6125 Před 8 měsíci

    I have 3 deer heart in my freezer right now. Two bucks and a doe, and the one buck, his heart is the size of the the other two put together. Absolutely huge. He was a stately 8 pointer with a huge neck as well that got hit and ran into my neighbors field and died. Fed my cats and dog, kept his heart and liver in my freezer to give them later.

  • @kingdr111
    @kingdr111 Před 8 měsíci +2

    Love what you guys are doing by taking something intimidating to most and making it simple. Pickled deer heart is the favorite in our house, literally everyones favorite way to eat heart and second favorite part of the deer to smoked venison pastrami. We also slice it then give it a slight breading & seasoning, lightly fry it, then dip in something like a honey mustard or buttermilk ranch sauce.

  • @Christophershame
    @Christophershame Před 8 měsíci +2

  • @andrewbarnes2702
    @andrewbarnes2702 Před 7 měsíci +2

    Love your work, and I have learned so many subtleties with the knife while watching you guys. I really appreciate it! My tip for the heart…even a huge whitetail has a heart that will fit inside a nitride/latex glove. When field dressing, if I don’t have a baggie (which I never do) I grip the heart in a clean glove and pull the glove off over the heart like putting a sock on one’s foot. Push it down to the fingers and tie her off. Done and no mess, no extra waste.

  • @RyanPerkins-lm7cb

    I really want to try deer Heart this way! The only way I’ve ever had deer Heart is boiled and ground with potato, onions, peppers, and garlic and made into hash! Deer Heart hash is really good with over easy eggs! Love your videos! God Bless from Caldwell Ohio!

    It is so awesome this video came up because I just cooked deer heart for my dog a couple days ago, thinking I won't like this, it is going to be a lot like liver. But after smelling it cook, I thought I have to try it. When I did, I will be saving every deer heart for me now. Lol Thank you to everyone that puts together the content. I love watching you guys

  • @BigPeter1313
    @BigPeter1313 Před 8 měsíci

    I always cook up the liver for the critters. They love it! The heart is also one of my favorites. If you can get the long bones from your processor (if you use one) it's excellent for bone broth and then reduce it down and freeze in ice cube trays for a quick addition to any meal.

  • @jeffreybangs3740

    • @dawnpelz8570
      @dawnpelz8570 Před 8 měsíci

      I started eating deer heart about 10yrs ago and mostly have it to myself which is fine with me. I'll never leave another one for the critters. Every time I leave that huge liver in the gut pile I wish I knew how to make it. I can eat fried chicken liver or gizzards if it's seasoned heavily and loaded with hot sauce. I have never had beef or calf liver that I liked, but I've never made it. And honestly most of my family are not as good of a cook as I am, so I should probably give it a try. Butter and onions?

  • @nicholaswilson2668
    @nicholaswilson2668 Před 7 měsíci

    I trim, cut up, and brine it overnight, then do tacos with it the next day. I’ve tried several ways, but tacos is the best imo. And now my favorite meal from the deer!

  • @Xebadir
    @Xebadir Před 7 měsíci +1

    Nice to see a video like this out there. I tend to be a little more discerning with trimming off the outer membrane/sinew as I find it makes it a lot tougher if you don't (especially for older deer), and my wife prefers it cut into smaller pieces which can cook a little quicker. Might have to give this approach a try.

  • @user-eb8vn1rc2n
    @user-eb8vn1rc2n Před 8 měsíci

    My mother once did a demo. She bought a cow heart from the butcher and brought it home to demonstrate how the heart works. She held it under the tap and ran water in the aorta showing how the blood would come into the heart, and then squeezed the atria and ventricles, showing how it caused the water (in place of the blood) would be forced through the heart and from there to the lungs and back to the body. 100% would recommend, as it was a great teaching aid.

    It’s amazing how much of an animal that was hunted gets tossed away. I grew up in Mexico but now reside here in the USA. Last year I won a half of a cow on a raffle. The butcher shop that processed it called me to ask how thick I wanted my cuts. So I told them. Then I also asked what were they going to do with the heart, liver, kidneys, stomach, intestines, head and the tail. And the lady responded well nobody usually asks for them. I then said I’ll take them and she said ok. People don’t realize how good these parts are lol!!!! Oh by the way I also love deer heart!!
