A Skeptic’s Guide to Eating Offal
I have to confess. There I was, a homesteader who has been raising and butchering our meat for well over a decade, but I didn’t even know the proper way to pronounce “offal,” not alone how to process organ meats to make nutritional meals out of them.
And I didn’t know if I wanted to know.
Today I’m talking about the liver and the heart and lots of other good stuff with Ashleigh Vanhouten, the author of It Takes Guts and Carnivore-ish and the host of Muscle Maven Radio. Trust me, you’ll see offal in a whole new way (and know how to pronounce it).
