Be aware: "Beef Fries" are not what they seem!

[jmowreader]

I went to the store today to look for andouille sausage that I needed to make "Louisianan Rice"--like Spanish rice but with shrimp and andouille sausage instead of German sausage like I use in my Spanish rice. Anyway, I looked in the "variety meats" case that normally is full of cow heads, and found a big display of Beef Fries. In Spanish, "Huevos de Toros."

Yup, bull nuts.

And in case you're wondering, Louisianan Rice contains:

1 lb bag frozen precooked shrimp
1 onion
2 tablespoons butter
Big can of tomato sauce
4 teaspoons "LSU Tiger Dust" Cajun seasoning I got in Breaux Bridge, LA, over a 34-hour break I took last weekend
1 cup brown rice
1 cup white rice

Saute onion in butter. Throw in shrimp and cook until shrimp is thawed out. Drain, because it's gonna be full of water at this point. Add tomato sauce and seasoning.

Make rice. Mix tomato sauce part and rice part together. Heat until warm. Serve.

1. I must take offense at the seedy nature of this post.

There is a Vas Deferens in what is tasteful and the content of your OP. Your spherical logic mystifies me. And yet, my attention is left hanging, suspended.

2. PS: What's in the Tiger Dust? The seasoning is the key in Cajun cooking.

The only problem is, those little guys are the size of pit bulls and already capable of killing things.

9. Contents of Tiger Dust

Salt, red pepper, garlic, onion, black pepper, paprika, white pepper.

It's got a nice flavor to it, unlike the so-called Cajun spices not made in Louisiana. This is made in Lake Charles.

4. Yup. Already knew that.

Place not to far from here serves what I call Oklahoma Surf and Turf: Frog Legs and Calf Fries. :rofl:

Also called bull fries, Rocky Mountain oysters or Prarie oysters.

7. More accurately, these are calf 'fries'

the fried part is what is done with them. They are tasty indeed. Male calves have them removed to become steers to become big macs. Generally served with an ice cold domestic beer.

8. hey, your recipe doesn't have sausage listed

what's up with that?}(



sausage and calf fries - is this a sex thread? :rofl:

10. My recipe has no sausage listed for a reason

I could have used andouille sausage or boudin. Neither is available here.

13. I worked on a ranch years ago. We always ate them after round-up. Because: why throw them

away? They tasted fine, I suppose, in scrambled eggs and such. I wasn't a great enthusiast, and I don't think anybody else was either: they were what they were. It was hard work and a person needed to eat. I became a vegetarian for a while back then, though, when I had to slaughter
