Found a place that I can order hearts from. I'll have the bastard by friday and will be eating it Saturday. Only time will tell if I will enjoy it. My family think I am turning into some kind of wild animal and are thoroughly disgusted by the whole idea.

I must try this beef hearts thing. My go-to chili is a 50/50 mix of cubed chuck and pork shoulder... if I can keep the porkiness while also attaining MAXIMUM BEEF it would be pretty awesome. Downside is my wife will probably be mad at me for doing weird food things that she finds gross. Guess that means I just have to eat it all myself...

I got a crock pot slow cooker for Christmas. Are there any adjustments I need to make to stove top recipes to make them suitable? Presumably using less liquid?

I use a single dark beer and about 3 cups of beef stock for ~6lbs solid components in my slow cooker chili. Never failed me before.

Don't forget to brown the meat in a separate pan, then deglaze and dump that into the crock pot. Wouldn't wanna miss out on all that flavor.

If you're using beans in your recipe make sure to use canned kidney beans instead of dry. Primarily because most slow cookers will not reach the temperature where the poison inherent in kidney beans is cooked out if you use dry. Not doing that will cause hellacious diarrhea.

How much was it? I'd love to see pics. Beef heart is one of those things I've always wanted to try. I bet beef heart and bone-in short ribs would be awesome. I also want to get some barrow bones to add in. Anyone try that? I have a love affair with bone marrow.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:I've heard good things about using that or soy sauce to add umami flavor. I like to use dried mushrooms. 2.99/lb. The only place around me who would sell me one was an Amish butcher at a farmer's market so it is grass fed and all that fancy stuff. The heart was ~5lbs (paid $15 flat for it) to start before trimming and got just over 2 lbs of meat from it after my crude attempt to trim it. I suspect if I like the result I will be able to get a better yield from future ones, but i was being overly cautious trying to remove connective tissues and such this time. I cooked and ate a few little bits to try it out as I trimmed. It had an interesting bite to the texture that is kind of hard to explain but the flavor was on point. I'll snap a picture of it in the crock pot near the finale, but my expectations are very high for it.

Cool, thanks. I'll see if my local guys carry them; there's a bunch of butchers nearby and they're all pretty awesome. I did a brief search online and apparently most of them are sold cut in half to make it easier to get the stuff inside out.

Mine was a solid piece and it made it difficult to work with as a new comer to the cut.

Put connective tissues in with your marrow. I'm still waiting to do my heart chilli, but I want an oxtail broth I think.. It's what your great grandmother would have done..

So checked on my chili. Worryingly greasy. How can I remedy?

# ? Jan 23, 2016 20:54 |

well either let it chill and scrape it off, if its mostly settled and the grease is on top then laying paper towels over will soak most of it up or you can spoon it off or just eat it

Tony Homo posted:Anyone considered cow tongue in a chili? Hmm. Tongue does cook up a lot like pot roast... Crazyeyes posted:So checked on my chili. Worryingly greasy. How can I remedy? Are you using my modified Iron Leg recipe? Is it done cooking? What fats and proteins did you add? If it's waaaay too greasy, just fridge it and skim some of the solidified fat off the top. Be sure to leave a bit, though, that's the flavor and spice in there. Let us know as soon as you sample the chili, I want to know if I got another heart convert here.

Suspect Bucket posted:Are you using my modified Iron Leg recipe? Is it done cooking? What fats and proteins did you add? 1: I made up my own recipe as follows: For the chili paste/slurry: -3 each dried guajillos, arbols. Seeded -1 heaping spoonful each of ancho chili powder, chipotle powder, half-sharp paprika, cumin seeds -1/2 spoonful oregano -toasted the cumin in a cast iron pan and ground up. Get enough hot water to cover peppers in small vessel toss in powders and spices as well. Leave to soak/soften for a bit (30-45 minutes; or you can cook them on the stove for 5-10 minutes and they will soften nicely), then throw everything in blender and puree. Set aside. For meat: -1 beef heart, trimmed, cleaned, cut into cubes. (I got ~2lbs as stated before) -2lb chuck roast ~1 lb dried black beans -a big gob of beef base mixed with water to make ~3c broth -1 bottle Bass Ale. I had none of my chili go-to Triple Bock on hand so had to improv on this. Threw the beans in a bowl with water last night to start re-hydration process. Seared off the heart and the roast and threw in crock pot with beef stock and spice puree. Put ceramic in fridge ready to cook this morning and went to sleep. Woke up and put on low around 8:30. Added the beer at this point and it began to cook. finished beans in a pressure cooker after they didn't soften enough just boiling on stove by the time i needed them added to be on time for dinner. Dumped in beans about an hour before serving. About 15 minutes before I mixed up some corn starch in cold water and added that to thicken the liquid. Final Appearance: In the bowl with some shredded cheddar, crushed jalapenos and a biscuit. Served over a bed of basmati rice (didn't have any regular white rice) As you can see, this was a very carefully measured and prepared meal... FINAL VERDICT Goddamn delicious! I am a convert to the use of heart. I am not sure it was entirely worth the hour+ it took to trim and cut it up, but the results are undeniable. Dis poo poo is the bomb.

Looks awesome! Cleaning the heart definitely gets easier as you do it more and I'd imagine it's also easier to do when its precut in half, though I've never tried doing a whole one.

Here's a good quick overveiw from my man Scott Rea: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_lxbkFcbgM&t=125s. You'll see he's got a half there, but just chunking it up and removing the really stringly bits. I've also only worked with half hearts before, but my first time cleaning it I was super picky and it took forever. Now I just chunk 'em up, carve out the nasty scraps, and feed 'em to the dog and cats, who are nuts for beef heart. Suspect Bucket fucked around with this message at 15:09 on Jan 24, 2016 |

I pulled out all the liquid and skimmed it a bit, but by the end the beans and everything sucked up a lot of it and it was not greasy at all. Probably wasted effort trying to skim it, honestly.

I know the reason why for the grease, though. I put the chuck roast in whole expecting it to break down enough to just fall apart and shred into the liquid. because it was un-cubed like stew meat usually is it was much fattier and all that melted out and floated around. in the future i'll always cut it up first.

e: sorry for bad quality photo but chili looks bad no matter what I guess I've been planning to cook up a big batch of chili for weeks now but getting the sadbrains makes cooking into I'm really lazy and the most labor intensive thing I did with this was soak 4 oz of ancho and guajillos then puree them with a bulb of garlic, some salt and oregano for the chili paste. A little bitter but manageable, once it cooked for a while it mellowed out. Threw in some cumin powder and black pepper to finish off the paste and make it taste like, well, chili. As for the rest of it, 2 onions, 2 green peppers, beef boullion paste, hot Mexican tomato sauce (El Pato), diced tomatoes, canned jalapenos and canned kidney/pinto beans. Canned stuff is good enough for me, its all gonna cook down and I'm the only one eating it anyway Also I managed to brown up all the beef without burning out of my thumb like last time, I had some gnarly blisters for a while. Pro tip, don't be in a rush and put floured beef cubes into a skillet of hot oil barehanded. Minarchist fucked around with this message at 02:55 on Jan 25, 2016 |
