"Rocky Mountain oysters, the infamous dish of thin sliced, breaded and deep-fried cattle testicles. This normally tastes sort of like fried calamari, and here it is prepared better than usual, very tender and panko crusted, with a red pepper dip that is sort of like cocktail sauce."
"For the ultimate Colorado delicacy, head to The Fort Restaurant in Morrison and order the Rocky Mountain oysters."
"They were really excellent. We asked the waiter about the difference. We then learned that The Fort "oysters" are buffalo testicles. Buffalo testicles are each about the size of a baseball. They cut them into small pieces before breading them. I'm not sure if The Fort prepares them differently than the Buckhorn Exchange does theirs, other than the cut, or if the difference is due to buffalo vs. bull, but whatever it is, The Fort buffalo testicles are far superior in taste and texture."
