Bacon Onions and Liver

[John Luciano]

I am cookin BACON, Onions and BABY BEEF LIVER. Anyone else like it besides me . I use to use CALF liver but it is too mushy. Got to very careful not to over cook it. i fry the bacon until almost cooed and remove it from the pan . I fry the onions in that grease i re add bacon and Lay the liver in top of the bead of onions and bacon . ( It can't touch the pan ) 4 to 5 min. on a side and eat it. Take the bacon and onions and put it over polenta ( Corn meal mush ) or rice is good too. got to go eat now !!!!!:yes:

 

[ThirdWheel]

Nope..John I can't stand liver...you are the only one that likes that!

 

[redneckray]

Liver, not for me neither

 

[FreeBird]

Sorry but it does sound good to me.

 

[Nana]

Guess you get it all tonight, John. Liver and me.......well, it isn't going to happen!
However, the bacon, onions, and rice or polenta sound good

 

[Papa Zook]

As a kid uhhhh...hated it, but somehow as an adult Ive grown to really like it. I suppose its because it was my mother's food and anything she cooked I have a craving for these days. The LongHorn Steak House in our town serves it on their lunch menu and they sell a lot of it probably because you cant get it anywhere else.

How true I would now kill for some of the stuff my mother made me eat.

My wife won't even try cooking it.

I do get a craving once in a while

Lambert's down in Foley, Al makes a fine plate of liver and onions.

 

[Gorilla]

I hate it, MJ loves it.

 

[skuuter]

Every now and then if the craving hits....Liver maybe a coupla' times per year.......sounds like a "Cardiac Nightmare" though.....:laugh:

Ever notice how the words, "Liver and Onions", bring out a passionate response? Lots of food we shrug and say, "It's ok, not my favorite, but not bad." But liver brings out the HATE or LOVE response in most of us. I wonder why...

 

[redneckray]

I ALWAYS HATED LIVER WHEN GROWING UP AND HAS STUCK WITH ME, BUT I REMEMBER WHEN I USE TO LOVE TO EAT A FAVORITE FROM WHEN MY AUNT WOULD COOK SOME GOOD OLD CAJUN BOUDAN, TILL I SAW WHAT WENT INTO IT, MAZIES ME WHAT WE EAT AND LOVE IT TILL WE SEE WHAT IT IS MADE OUT OF, GRINN

As a kid Mom used to make liver and onions at home (ages ago) and I loved the smell and just couldn't stand the taste. It's many, many years later and it still holds true. No matter how many times I try, liver is one of the few things I do not eat.

The Italians make something called Sufriet .. we made some at place i worked and people loved it. if you think Liver & Onions is bad you would die on this stuff.
Sufrite, Sofrito in Italian are both the same and not the Latin sofrito. The main ingredient is non meat and longer available for human consumption due to the USDA. The primary ingredient is Lungs it and any other organ like heart & spleen but not liver. It was fried with like peppers, tomatoes, parsley and onions. It was delicious. The reason for banning is because of air pollution and the lungs are now used in animal food.

Got to be lambs liver I am afraid with bacon...mmmmmm Have you tried tripe and onions....?

 

[John Luciano]

Funny story ... BACK in the DAY (1966) when us Catholics ate fish on FRI. My boss would say I am buying who is flying (going to get the food ).. I would get a Tuna grinder or Linguine with clam sauce he would always get the Tripe after about a month i said Ralph why do you always get the Tripe ? He said it is the only FISH i like . Surprised he was after that .

 

[Papa Zook]

So he thought he liked him some SPECKLED TRIPE huh???!! Funny!

I hated Liver and Onions as a Kid, but now I really like the liver and I scrape the onions out the way. No one in my house can stand them so I get my fix at Bell's House of Pizza a Greek place here in town.

 

[Ozarkryder]

Loves me some liver and onions. Only thing is that you can tell some were cooked in the house for the next 3 or 4 days. :faint:

John's recipie sounds good, will have to try it.:yes:

 

[Doc]

I'm right there with you Trinity...I can remember my Dad standing over me, threatening, "if you don't eat that Liver, you're gonna get it for breakfast"...naturally, by the time i finially ate it, you'd think it was made at Tom McCanns (Shoe Leather)...LOL. Still can't get it down!

 

[jimjel]

I came from a po' family Grew up on liver and onions and brains and eggs. Still love the liver and onions but can pass on the brains and eggs. Brains to slick and slimy for me nowadays.

MJ used to give it to the girls when they were little. Told them it was steak. They loved it. Then they found out what it really was when they got older and would not eat it anymore.

 

[Boscoporp]

YUK!!!!

[ThirdWheel]

YUK!!!!

Liver & onions! Not since I was 8 years old!

Then he started drinking margaritas!

 

[PhilGilbert]

Nope..John I can't stand liver...you are the only one that likes that!

Wrong! I love chicken liver & onions. Also tripe. Guess that makes me an innards man. Don't do kidneys, you have to boil the piss out of them.

I Love it when I cook it, I would never order it out though. I soak my baby beef liver in milk for a few hours then fry it up. Oooooohhhh Doggy you swear you were eating Sirloin. Tripe is always one of my favorites, but you have to let it soak and clean it good. Being Irish, blood pudding is another favorite, fried tomatoes.....Damn John you got me started LOL
