What size bull calves have the best oysters?

[jedstivers]

Have never thought about it because I don't eat them but just wondering what size calf has the best. We are going to be cutting about 30 calves. By the time we cut them they will be pushing 400.

I prefer the smaller ones, but I have never eaten one from a herd bull.

You should be fine at 400 lbs.

 

[Bigfoot]

400 is on the upper end of what I have eaten, but they were still good.

 

[cow pollinater]

400 is getting big for fried oysters and that's the only way I've had them.

 

[Kingfisher]

They should be fine if you rinse the mud off em...

 

[M5farm]

O like the big ones from a 5 to 6 wt. We cut them into strips anyway.

 

[jedstivers]

Anyone that wants some can sure have them.
I have a old guy that used to work for me lives fight by here, he loves them. Bet he'll be happy.

I think its more in the way they are fixed than the size. But I have never had any fixed just right. I have eaten them but probably wont go back for seconds.

Could there possibly be a way to "fix them right"? :yuck:

I really don't think so but then some people like chitlins too.

That he hangs out with a wayward Missouri hillbilly was a good clue.

Guys who like them around here say 300-400lb are the best. They have big calf fries with lots of beer parties around here they invite me but I stay away nasty.

 

[J&D Cattle]

We've eaten them from babies up to probably 600. Slice them thin, bread them, and deep fry. Nothing much better especially with a belly full of beer to go along. Fried some deer nuts a couple of years ago. Good stuff.

 

[M5farm]

never eaten the deer nuts but have eaten wash tub full of hog nuts.

I remember seeing a special on South American Cowboys, I can't spell what they are called.
Anyway they had a cooker made out of a disc blade and we're cooking them righty nature corral.
Iv been wanting to make one of those cookers a while, had some crew here a fer years ago that cooked on one and they could really cook.
