What could be more offal?
 

Last week it was chitterlings, this week it's tripas. According to the
USDA steablishment stamp "3D", these are packaged by the Swift Beef
company. You can look up the codes/numbers he

http://www.fsis.usda.gov/regulations/Meat_Poultry_Egg_Inspection_Directory/index.asp'

Soemtimes this is the only way to identify the manufacturer/packeger of a
product. And in this case, the species, too.

Behold, the Tripas:

These were fresh, but I froze them last night becausde I didn't know when I
was going to have the guts <cough> to cook them. I'm prewtty sure this is
just going to be one 10ft length of intestines when I unpackage. These
will probably require some serious cleaning and boiling in a few waters.

Any reicpe suggestes for these? Braunschweiger casings?

I think I'll make tomorrow "Stink up the House Day".

Well if you don't eat it, then it could be used as a siphon tube
perhaps 'cause after all it is the connecting tube between the two
sections of a cow's stomach. Enjoy your cow guts.
