I'm surprised no one has brought up Rocky Mountain Oysters, calf fries, or Prairie Oysters...I'll let you google it yourself

I'm spending Thanksgiving in South Georgia.
In these parts we like our Mullet smoked or fried. |

Smoked mullet, properly done is very good chow. I'm staying with the regular stuff tomorrow. Roasting a brace of cornish game hens, fresh cut fruit, some well seasoned and cooked butter beans, some fresh fried young okra,Fresh spinach salad and homemade sweet potato pie. (was gonna make a shoofly pie, but I can't find brown molasses without driving to the big city (that has to resemble a Zombie invasion by now). But I do have some gator tail, froglegs, and some crawfish in case my guests want some. |

Cityxslicker, you're thinking of "100 year old eggs." They aren't really 100 years old... they just LOOK that way. They ferment in the ground in a "special soil mixture" that turns the egg inside black. Yummy! |

I've had Rocky Mountain Oysters. Not such a big deal, actually. Though I do have a funny story about them.
Back in 1989, on my first cross-country motorcycle trip, we were having dinner at "The Fort," a restaurant outside of Denver. I was traveling with my friend, and we were visiting his brother and sister-in-law who lived in Aurora at the time.
Anyway, we ordered the Rocky Mountain Oysters (knowing full well what they were) and were chowing down on them with beer when my friend's sister-in-law observed: "Did anyone else notice that the bigger ones are kind of 'spongy?'"
We three men all looked at her, at one another, and then the bowl. Pushed it to the side... we were DONE. |

Like I said, when they run out of steaks, prime rib roasts, tri-tip, short ribs, brisket and skirt steak, then maybe . . . |

OK so The Navigator said she can't do bacon wrapped scallops because she would be missing her traditional turkey dinner thing so I just got home from the tav, er, I mean grocery store and this is the plan;
Ham. scored, cloves inserted, a pile of brown sugar on top and pineapple rings hung all over it on the upper shelf of the smoker. Turkey. Lovingly rubbed with olive oil and adobo seasoning on the shelf strategicaly centered below the ham so the ham drips on the turkey.
Baked beans. Placed directly below the turkey to catch the drippings from all of the above.
It aint bacon wrapped scallops but it will have to do.
Happy Thanksgiving Riders! |

Balut - Vit Lon in Vietnam. Never built up the nerve to try.
Spent a few days in Vung Tau last visit to family/vn. This was on the menu
for dinner, or after dinner drink
found out later, South Asian sea snake.
very venomous.
Declined the sea snake, had grilled squid and octopus with corn & dried shrimp instead.
Gotta love fresh grilled squid.... |
