I grew up in Memphis but was never much of a tamale fan until I moved to California. Southern tamales are a whole different beast than what most people think of when they hear the word. Thanks to the Southern Foodways Alliance, I...

I second 99 Ranch. We got a jumbo one that fed two, with leftovers. SOOO good, and such a fun place. But, if that’s too far (they have several locations), Pavilions had some specials awhile back. 9.99/lb. And you can check...

I saw that your choice last year was Italian and Incanto has special dinners (by arrangement) that offer whole beast options. If your guests are into a whole animal as a celebratory event, this may be worth consideration. Link:...

Thanks for the suggestions. I did a search and ended up buying these three books: 1. Fergus Henderson’s "The Whole Beast: Nose to Tail Eating" (Perhaps the poster from the other thread should purchase this book.); 2. Heather...

The recipe can be found here: The Whole Beast: Nose to Tail Eating by Fergus Henderson

I love liver. And kidney. I love Salvadorean grilled liver plates. I make my own liver and onions. I make deviled kidneys, out of the Whole Beast cookbook. I even love the ginormous pile of liver at Roscoe’s – though...

that specialize in offal, replete with uncredited quotes from whole-beast luminaries Fergus Henderson and Chris Cosentino. http://www.newsoftheweird.com/archive/index.html Found this interesting, as well as vaguely disappointing.

the presence of six-month-old and four-year-old grandchildren, we’d be (most likely) doing a whole beast at Incanto or using the private room at Oliveto (the Chez, up or down, will not take parties of this size). Dad likes...

Linked my report w/ recipe below. I used Fergus Henderson’s recipe from The Whole Beast. Veal bones are preferred (more marrow, less fat), but I used beef since that’s all I could find. Still delicious. Enjoy! Link:...

I finally scored a copy of the original Whole Beast: A Guide to Nose to Tail Eating with help from Bonnie Slotnick Cookbooks. The pictures are revelatory and put to rest, finally, what a deep fried pig tail looks like. (Exactly...

I saw it at Whole Foods, but that was here in Las Vegas. Not sure if the B. A. branches have it.

The Whole Beast meal at Incanto’s Dante Room...

Cayjohan, It’s not really a book on charcuterie, but Fergus Henderson’s "The Whole Beast—Nose To Tail Eating" is an excellent cookbook. It covers the many food items often overlooked by the buyers at Trader...

I agree with Leper, who agrees with Fergus Henderson, in his book, "The Whole Beast". Take a look at the link provided by Stephanie in this thread. I’ve never been privileged to have veal marrow, but I do the same for beef....
