I do them quite often. I try and get the veins cut out and then I make stuffing using Pepridge Farms as directed and stuff it. and bake at 350 for about 45 to 50 minutes.

My only experience is with chicken hearts, which we cook with the soup. Yum.

It's in the freezer, awaiting colder weather. From what I've gathered, it makes a pretty hearty dish (pun completely, totally intended :lol: :lol: ). I think it'll be a little too heavy for summer weather, but we're looking forward to it on the first blustery October day. :)

Just came across your post...I used to buy it at the grocery store and have them grind it as hamburger is ground. I would then mix it with regular ground beef and make hamburgers, or any dish ground beef was used. It was good and would make the regular i.e. cheapest ground beef much leaner and it was cheaper than the ground beef (Back then about 25 years ago. Not sure if it is still cheaper. If you have a food processor or a meat grinder you could grind it yourself.
