Rocky Mountain Oysters

Don’t let the the word “oyster” in “Rocky Mountain oyster” fool you into thinking it’s a briny bivalve. When it comes to these “oysters” (also known as Prairie Oysters), seafood is not involved.

In fact this dish originated in the North American West, far from any ocean. Created by ranchers, Rocky Mountain oysters are in fact, most famously, bull testicles. Though sheep, bison and pig can be used, too.
