Method

Preparation of Bison Rocky Mountain Oysters

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bison Testicles

    Start by cleaning the bison testicles thoroughly under cold running water. Remove the outer membrane carefully with a sharp knife. Once cleaned, slice them into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Breading Station

    Set up a breading station with three bowls: one for all-purpose flour, one for beaten eggs, and one for bread crumbs. Season the flour with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Bread the Testicles

    Dredge each piece of bison testicle in the flour, shaking off excess. Dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with bread crumbs. Place the breaded pieces on a plate.

Frying

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan or a deep fryer, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Ensure there’s enough oil to submerge the testicle pieces.

  2. 5

    Fry the Bison Testicles

    Carefully place the breaded bison testicle pieces into the hot oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

  3. 6

    Drain and Season

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried testicle pieces and drain them on paper towels. While they are still hot, toss them with the lemon herb spice mix.

Cocktail Sauce Preparation

  1. 7

    Make the Cocktail Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine ketchup, horseradish, and lemon juice. Mix well until smooth, and adjust seasoning to taste.

Serving

  1. 8

    Serve the Dish

    Plate the fried bison rocky mountain oysters and serve with the cocktail sauce on the side for dipping.
