Ivory's? What is that?Absolutely!
Venison: Liver, Heart, Kidney
Elk: Liver, Heart, Tongue n' Oysters. (kidney's are a bit nasty without significant prep)
I prefer Elk meat to venison, but venison liver and heart is incredible!
Next day Elk tongue sandwiches with a nice brown country mustard, fried matoe's and black pepper are a family tradition and will rock your world.
Don't forget to harvest your elk ivory's, too.
Teeth. Good if you need a root canal.Ivory's? What is that?
The two upper canine teeth of an Elk are ivory.Ivory's? What is that?
Is the tongue served cold on the sandwich like a regular lunch meat or is it served warm?Next day Elk tongue sandwiches with a nice brown country mustard, fried matoe's and black pepper are a family tradition and will rock your world.
I'm just over 20 + bulls.....I know what they areThe two upper canine teeth of an Elk are ivory.
Precisely. Cold cut thick sliced like lunch meat, but like most lunch meats it's more flavorful at room temp vs. straight out of refrigeration.Is the tongue served cold on the sandwich like a regular lunch meat or is it served warm?
Pre-cooked before refrigeration?Precisely. Cold cut thick sliced like lunch meat, but like most lunch meats it's more flavorful at room temp vs. straight out of refrigeration.
Yup. Boil it up fresh in seasoned water (2-3hrs-ish), let it rest... skin it while still warm then use as desired.Pre-cooked before refrigeration?
Even in backcountry... heart and liver will keep submerged in lightly salted water for a good couple of days. Just drain and replace the water every 12hrs or so. You really want to soak them a good half day or more, anyway, before cooking. It will mellow out the "iron" flavor and sweeten the meat.I dont like liver but if its not a backcountry hunt I will save it for others. I love deer and elk heart.
Recently, I have learned to save the caulfat layer around the stomach. I need to figure out how to cook with it better but allegedly venison caulfat is pure and healthy and really extracts its flavor into the meat.
The Total Guide to Caul Fat
When field dressing a deer, you’ll find a thin, lacy net covering the stomach. Don’t mistake this for something to be left in the gut pile. Although it doesn’t resemble a prime cut, this web of valuable fat is great for imparting flavor, moisture, and shape into meals. What is Caul Fat? Caul fat...www.themeateater.com

It depends on how far I have to pack out but I'm trying to keep more even if I don't like something (liver) others do. Last elk I got I stripped all the meat off the ribs and spine.... and my hunting partner asked if he could have it. He packed that carcass out of the backcountry till midnight to make bone broth, and he did.Even in backcountry... heart and liver will keep submerged in lightly salted water for a good couple of days.

Elk caulfat is good too. It adds a lot of flavor and is quite healthy. It also freezes well for later use. Just slow thaw it in the fridge a day before use and you're good to go.
