Haggis Anyone?

[Jimbo]

Anyone ever had this before? Wish it was sold in stores, I'd like to try it sometime. Anyway, gotta give credit where credit is due, this is monty Python's recipe:
Haggis Poem
Much to his dad and mum's dismay Horace ate himself one day He didn't stop to say his grace He just sat down and ate his face "We can't have this!" his dad declared "If that lad's ate he should be shared" But even as he spoke they saw Horace eating more and more: First his legs and then his thighs, His arms, his nose, his hair, his eyes "Stop him someone!" Mother cried "Those eyeballs would be better fried!" But all too late for they were gone, And he had started on his dong... "Oh foolish child!" the father mourned "You could have deep-fried those with prawns, Some parsley and some tartar sauce..." But H was on his second course; His liver and his lights and lung, His ears, his neck, his chin, his tongue "To think I raised him from the cot And now he's gone to scoff the lot!" His mother cried what shall we do? What's left won't even make a stew..." And as she wept her son was seen To eat his head his heart his spleen And there he lay, a boy no more Just a stomach on the floor... None the less since it was his They ate it - and that's what haggis is

Dude, it is Knarley

You like Tripe ?

[Jimbo]

You mean tripe like the stuff in those huge jars next to the cash register in nearly every dumpy bar in Pennsy? Yea, sure I do. We could turn this into a thread about valueless food items. How about Scrapple? Care for a little syrup with your ground up pig's hooves and sawdust pattie?

How about Scrapple?

oh yes.....I was VERY unaware......and then very grossed out! Gee come to think of it I had almost forgotten about the incident until you reminded me.

I've has haggis in Scotland. Its almost a rite of passage to have some the first time you're there. Didn't care much for it, or the grouse that was also served. Them grouse is one nasty tasting little bird.

I wonder if I could bribe Rick B. to whip me up a nice juicy sheep stomach packed with all those partially digested yum-yum's and baked to perfection.

[rocketman]

Isn't that stuffed sheep bladder?

Stomach with nice, porridgey rice, a$$ lips and toenail clippins'

Jimbo,
You want Haggis, I cook you Haggis.
Even though I'm Irish.
Cooked right, it's very good.
Tripe on the other hand, kind of a funny texture.
Menudo (not the group) is the best way to eat that one.
Later,
Rick
