has anyone tried just cutting out the sinews, stuffing it (I use a bread stuffing)
and bake (pinned side down on a rack) with half bottle of beer @325 for approx.11/2-2hrs and serving sliced real thin with plain or beet-horseradish?

Mm, I bought some beef heart and made it into a delicious curry tonight but was also looking for some other ways to make it in the future. This looks delicious and I will definitely have to try it. Question though: is there an alternative sauce that you would recommend? I’m not a huge fan of horseradish.

As a chef with great respect for food and the animal that gave it’s life so we all can eat gourmet, I bought a 2# beef heart at $1 a pound last night 08.13. 2010 . It shall be prepared two ways, thin sliced, marinaded and quick braised with colorful veggie’s served over jasmine rice. Next pound shall be slow roasted with herbed potatoes served with an assortment of summer squash and a fennel salad with heirloom tomatoes and basil. I’ll give recipe details later, in the mean time look at it like this. The heart pumps the blood of life its where the animal’s spirit resides.To eat the heart of an animal is an ancient tradition and an honor once given only to royalty and brave hunters. Its a sign of respect for the spirit of the animal and respect for nature and without that respect guess what? We dont eat. So the next time your in the meat isle, remember the animals heart that helped to keep you alive, even if you dont decide to eat it.

Thank you, Chef, for this recipe and your website. I used to cook at The Connaught Hotel in London, where offals were prized, not derided. I am glad to find a community that also appreciates the animal in its entirety. Please keep the ideas flowing.
