I saved the testicles off my elk this year for two reasons:
1) It was a male.
2) They were the only part of the elk that the flies weren't layin' eggs on.

Uh...the testicles are those two pink thingies, bottom center:

Three culinary delights: Elk liver n onions, elk filet wrapped in bacon, and elk cajones:

Soak your balls overnight in some cool, and refreshing, lightly salted warm water. Drain and rinse the twins.
Make sure you pierce each gonad before parboiling so you don't "bust yer balls."
Add carrots, onions and a Bay leaf or two to some lightly salted water and over low heat simmer the nads for 10 minutes.
Save back the broth.

Rinse in cold water and then skin them babies:

Slice the balls 1/4" thick and soak them in the broth overnight.

Mix 1/3 cup of milk with an egg. Dip the slices in the mixture and then roll in your favorite fry coating:

I double-dipped these:

Fry in 375° oil until a golden brown. Serve them nuggets with chips and ****tail sauce:

It's a good thing you weren't trying to have mule deer mountain oysters because it would be extremely difficult to get some since they're all undescended and the mule deer ain't gots no nuts.

By the way how were they, look yummy.

The phrase "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should" comes to mind.

They were fine; a little "bolder" flavor than beef or wild bison nuts. But that's fine, because hog, beef and bison balls are pretty bland tasting.

Hmmm...so do most of the testicles off your elk come off females? Do you need a birds and bees refresher course?

Hey look there isn't much I won't try once or twice....it's just a mental thing with animal nuts I suppose but I would love to try them.

Yeah, I get the same feeling when I drive by the Golden Arches.

Thanks.

They were fine, not much flavor, and like all nuts, the consistency of scallops.

Some say mountain oysters have a "nutty" flavor.

Yeah I think I'd pass though they looked more like chicken nuggets than anything when they were done. Probably much better than the golden arches nuggets... The mental thing is too much though!

Back in the days I remember the once a year event where we made all the young bulls into steers. We as kids would watch and learn, when my dad took off the testes he would hand them to me and I would put them in a 5 gallon bucket of salt water. At the end of the day we would put them on metal skewers and roast them over a fire until they split, then peel off the skin and the feast was on. We would always dip them in homemade melted butter, yum!:hungry:
