The election is over, so lets talk about the important things, like OFFAL.

Guts. People eat them and pretend to like it. We aren’t fooled.

So many offal puns … tripe for the picking.

To the Offal Thread with you, Ari. Oh, hang on…

so, bigfeet, the offal recipe went down a treat, did it? good to see that I am not the only one that likes using offal to enhance a decent bit of roast – was the meat really tender?

Incase dingo84 is serious wiki: offal

Seriously?

Yes, yes it was a big night. Nothing quite so great than to wake up at lunch time with a hang over to the smell of your housemate cooking kidneys with bacon, garlic, mushrooms and onion. That and a mug of coffee and i almost felt human again.

ok I’m not up on what’s gone on with offal here before, but I just want to say I love the stuff. My siblings and I used to fight over who got the kidneys in steak and kidney pie and if there wasn’t an even distribution all hell broke lose.

the pork pies out at the epic sat’dy markets loked good – only very large ones left so didn’t sample – i know this is not strictly offal…

last lot of offal i did was a few weeks back now, chicken livers with leeks, mushrooms, capsicum and garlic, all fried up in a good dollop of butter pepper and rosemary, then finished with a splash of dry white wine and a bit of cream (i may have used mayonnaise if i didn’t have cream..? all good…). ’twas sensational.

that is if you don’t count the fairly regular – every other sunday or thereabouts – black pudding with a fry up for breakfast. the best ones i get from the deli at belco mkts nearest the dance floor, but even the good old standby don (is don, is good) works well enough. mmmmm, black puddin’…

I knew you would be excited Granny.

So many offal puns … tripe for the picking.

At a haggis I think you are tripe.

The voters didn’t de-liver for Pratt.

I am gutted that Steve Pratt lost the election.

(2 birds: 1 (kidney) stone)

You’ve all been talking a load of tripe.

I like meat, but that’s just offal.

Yay! The offal thread lives again!!

I’m vego, but I noticed that Lost River Meats from Crookwell have some bits (kidneys, liver etc) at the Phillip farmer’s markets every Sunday morning.
