We need a show in Denver, I have a taste for Buckhorn Exchange. I wanna see if Liz will eat Rocky Mountain Oysters.

Depends on the age of origination.

Cheese Burgers?

Andrew was pissed when they switched to their current one page menu. They used to have folder style that was about 7-8 pages. Pretty much same menu, but much larger print and more detailed explanations of dishes. On holidays and busy days, he'd take out the "hamburger" page.

There's a lesson about selling in there someplace.

Dont let him claim he forgot. I've reminded him a half dozen times and even told him where to go get it.

Had I known your fondness for exquisite cheese we would've planned a road trip to Star Provisions while you were in town...

Usually, if I am in the 404, I try to hit the DeKalb and grab up a pile of gorgonzola, as it's actually my preferred blue (hence the part where I was asking that night about where the cheese came from - people just think "blue," not the kind of blue that it is, and it makes a profound difference in flavour). I'm not a big fan of Stilton or Shropshire, for example.


Mmmm. Cheese.

Andrew changed the menu. He said to tell you that cheese comes from cows no matter what the color and to get Kacy a sweater and gloves for her next visit.

I love gorgonzola. Although I like a bleu cheese encrusted steak, my absolute favorite is actually one stuffed with gorgonzola. But I rarely meet a blue that i dont like.

For that matter, I rarely meet a cheese I dont like....hell, i love velveeta shells and that only barely looks like cheese!

Surprised you dont like Stilton though, if you like Cheshire I would've thought Stilton would be the shiznit for you.

Well, as you know, I am kinda particular about some food things. In this case, lamb is fine - older sheep are less tender and can be gamey.

oh, and i definitely respect your discriminating taste buds, in my limited experience they have very good...well...tastes!...

in this case you're confusing mountain oysters with ROCKY MOUNTAIN oysters. you're thinking small! think buffalo!

i haven't met a girl who can get both of those in her mouth at the same time....if i did, i might have to propose marriage...

I think the point here is that clearly, critter balls as part of a dining experience aren't a concern :P

I'm curious, tho, if buffalo has that same fluffy texture? Hmmm *ponders*

I reckon cooking method would have much to do with it. I mean, pan-fried would have a very different texture than steamed in situ, aye?

Somehow I should've figured you wouldn't be the list bit skiddish of eating balls...

Now, I'm no expert, and they dont tell you on their website, but I'm pretty sure they do it the old cowboy way. Which means you first boil 'em a bit in a salt water and vinegar mixture typically. Then you bread 'em up and fry 'em.

At Buckhorn they are served split in half with a horse raddish dipping sauce.

I'd personally prefer a dab of hot sauce and/or a nice remoulade with my balls.
