We came. We saw. WE KICKED THEIR ASS!

We weren’t going to do it because it’s a crapload of work but my wife convinced me.

Team Pho-Q - just my wife and me. Took on teams with 4-10 members and took home the hardware plus about $1500 in prize money.

Over 800 orders of Pho-king hot balls served. And everyone kept saying they would have never known they were balls if they weren’t at a testicle festival.

I sliced 90 lbs of balls and marinated them in a very spicy Scorpion chili marinade and then made an authentic beef Pho broth and added rice vermicelli. We served bean sprouts, Thai basil, and a lime wedge on the side. It was a truly tasty dish and the balls tasted like a spicy Vietnamese meat ball.

Woked of course. Unfortunately I had to wok my own balls.

Cooking with balls: the world's first testicle cookbook
Have you tried tackling testicles?

Everyone's very excited about a new e-cookbook launched today, by online publishers YUDU. It's been compiled by a Serbian fellow called Ljubomir Erovic who has apparently been a testicular cook for some 20 years.

"The tastiest testicles in my opinion probably come from bulls, stallions or ostriches, although other people have their own favourites," says Mr Erovic. He also uses those from pigs and turkeys in his cooking and points out that "all testicles can be eaten - except human, of course". Glad to hear it Ljubomir.

Testicles are rich in testosterone (no kidding!) and are believed by many to have powerful aphrodisiac qualities.

Erovic reckons "the best for aphrodisiac properties are sheep and stallion testicles". So there you go.

While the ingredient is fairly challenging, most of the dishes in the book are less adventurous, from testicle pizza, goulash, battered testicles to barbecued testicles and giblets. To be fair though, it doesn't hurt to keep it simple, and there are a couple of more demanding recipes in there, for instance, calf testicles in wine (white or red but not sweet) and testicles with bourguignon sauce.

As for preparation, the recipe for omelette with calf testicles starts, "Remove fine veins from the testicles and put them in boiling water for 2-3 minutes". Presumably, this refers to the testicles, not the veins, but in such untested waters you can never be sure - however there are videos guides for the nervous. The book says testicles should be soaked in water before cooking, to soften them up, and cooks are advised that they will need a "very sharp knife" to tackle them with, so I'm thinking they're perhaps a little tough. Has anyone tried them?

Having cooked with bull, turkey, and sheep nads, that picture of the pizza makes my stomach turn. Those thick slabs of calf testicles would be disgusting. The texture would be enough to make me puke and I’m not squeamish in the slightest when it comes to strange foods.

I wouldn't expect anything less Brudda Stu. Those other peeps in the contest didn't have a chance vs you two! Bad Asses I tell ya!!!

Love the pics of you guys. Especially you and your Green Jacket. Was that a prize too... like a Masters Green jacket? You guys look great!

Nobody does balls like you Stu... and to have a wife with a ball PHD. That's like winning the lottery Man!

Looks like you both had a blast. I would have loved to have been there to watch... there's no Phoqing way I would have eaten a ball though... and you know I will eat ALMOST anything.

So glad you guys kicked ass!!!

It’s an irreverent St Paddy’s day festival. So we found green jackets a couple years ago. Not seen is my kilt in the Stuart clan hunter tartan. A smashing combination. :D

Of course. When I went up on stage to accept the awards, there were a bunch of ladies wanting to know. It’s an irreverent festival but maybe not quite THAT irreverent. :ROFLMAO:

Stuart clan hunter tartan

My father had tartan ties..........dozens of them and all legit tartans from different clans. He also had a very expensive book that showed illustrations of hundreds of Tartans. I think every one from every Clan but I could be wrong.

He traced the Scottish blood in the family (which is one of a few nationalities I am) back to the MacPherson Clan.

He always wore a white shirt and a tartan tie to work. Every day, no exceptions.
