  • Buffalo do not need to come in from the cold. 

    Bison though? Dunno

    Here is a interesting fact about the bison. The Apache Indians at one time believed that the life force of the bison was contained within its anus. Thus, when hunting bison, the Apache would fire arrows into the anus of the animal hoping to hit this mystical "life force". This is in no way an attempt at humor. It is absolute fact.

  • @SGH so what you're saying is if you eat a buffalo anus, you're really eating Go...

    Ok...I fell for @SGH's trap and just had to do some googling and came across this from a First Peoples website:

    Then White Buffalo Chief took a running start and crashed against
    the tree. The young cottonwood was nearly down, and Apache Chief
    could not kill White Buffalo Chief.

    Crow was calling above them, “Kaw, kaw, kaw!”

    Apache Chief said angrily to Crow, “Why are you calling out
    when I am in such a bad way?” 

    “I came to tell you to shoot him in the anus. That's where his life is." 

    So the Apache Chief shot White Buffalo Chief in the anus and killed him.

    The above is indeed a fact. I do a good bit of cooking with anus and other parts that a lot of folks discard. And this is really a shame. These parts are a delicacy for the most part. It is simply the thought in people's head. Just yesterday I cooked a meatloaf that contained anus. I served it to a few unexpecting folks who said it was one of the best meatloaves that they had ever ate. When I mentioned the anus, no one wanted anymore. My point? It went from the best meat loaf that they had ever ate to something that they would not eat anymore of. It's simply the thought in ones mind.
    By talking about and posting anus, it is my hope to get more people to broaden their horizon and try other things besides traditional Q. They just may be surprised.

  • D@mnit. I concede. 

    The man can drop anus like it's the F bomb to a lower enlisted marine. 

    My only win here is if this thread makes the "buffalo" decide to **** anytime the word anus is used.

    I will sue McDonalds if they start making anus burgers. It's a direct rip off of my anus loaf =)

    A few years ago a show on NPR did a segment on the whole "is pig anus being used as calamari in some restaurants" controversy. Pretty funny story.

    At the end of the segment they cooked up some calamari and some pig anus to see how they compared and they all pretty much agreed that pig anus was indeed passable as calamari and that most folks likely wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

    I have not seen the show but will attempt to find it. On that same note, I have been trying to tell folks this for years.

    I think it's illegal to transport anus across state lines.

    If memory serves me correct the law states:

    "no anus across state lines aaplies to the following: OH, NY, CA, NE, WA, OR, and HI"

    Democrats always trying to regulate our anus.

    Brother Egger, it's no secret that I like to joke and cut up. Especially with Nola. However when I'm speaking about cooking or food, I never kid or bluff. 
    Everthing that I have said about anus is 100% true. It can be used to make imitation calamari, it can be used as a substitute for sausage in various dishes such as meatloaf. It can even stand on its own as anus appetizers such as anal poppers.
    Again, I certainly enjoy joking and cutting up with my friends on the forum. But I never kid when it comes to anus.

    Heh heh, he said "anal poppers".

    I suspect the biggest issue against mainstream adoption of animal anus into popular dishes is the fact that animals only have 1 anus.  It is like a hanger steak.  An awesome cut, but due to roughly 1.5lbs per cow, it is a relatively rare commodity cut.
