Grilled Cows's Udders paired with some ribs, and a cold beer

Who is butchering their heifers and mamma cows? Mexicans I guess.

We butcher a two yr old hfr every year after it has been grain fed awhile. It's one that didn't make it to the cow herd by being pregnant. If not pregnant she doesn't get to live at my place anymore. Welfare case!!! lol!!

Do our own butchering and processing so might have to give it a try.

Don't over cook it, so it stays tender. You'll be glad you tried it.

I'm not very adventurous with food just the way I grew up. Traumatized when my dad chased me around the house with a beef tongue held up to his mouth! I was 5 years old. But if I was hungry, really hungry, I would have to try it, right? Probably like it too.

There's nothing like a well smoked steak

By itself, or in a taco over a corn tortilla with cabbage and a good roasted salsa, just can't go wrong.

It has its unique flavor, it's a little fatty and tender, and texture is like bitting into a well prepared octopus, well, muchbl softer than octopus, tender but doesn't fall apart.

I miss the Mollejas (Sweet Breads)! Hard to find in Indiana. LOL.

I've heard of the udders being called Sweet Breads, but they are not the same. The sweet breads from a different part of the cow, they come from the Thymus and/or the Pancreas. I've tried the ones from the pancreas and they are so good, but I haven't had them in a while.

Last time I had mollejas was at a friend's wedding a few years back. They killed a young cow at their ranch for the wedding and we had some there.

Go to your favorite taco place and order a lengua taco. It's good Bob, I like mine with chili verde.

Lengua or tongue in a crock pot over night in a home made salsa verde is one if the best ways to make it. Beef cheek is also very good.

Hard to beat Barbacoa tacos for breakfast.

Question: If you have tried cow udders, have you tried the same from any does you have harvested? Just curious as we harvest a couple does a year and was wondering how that would compare.

Unfortunately there a no doe hunts in AZ. The only one I know of is for for a youth hunt and only on select units. Would I try deer udders? Yeah, why not. I wish deer had bigger tongues though. Elk tongue is really good
