This is, ummm, different. It's rancher fuel.

[Snow]

8. The restaraunt whose specialty this is is not close enough to

the mountains to be able to, ummmmm, harvest mountain oysters.

11. I can't

tell, so please do not get offended OK. You know that mountain oysters are fried bull testicles right?
If you knew, I am sorry, if you didn't, know you what not to order. (I've tried them ONCE, weired texture, blugh, but my grandfather loved them.)

13. Heh! Thanks,

and I did indeed know the origins, but I'd always heard them called Rocky Mountain Oysters - and it's not really a western nebraska dish. Like I said, too far from the mountains, I guess.

14. OK

I don't know how the term started (also called calf fries).
True story,
I went to a high school run by a local university in my hometown of Abilene, TX., the school was day or boarding. One of the boarding school students was from New York city and he HATED being in west Texas. He constantly called us hicks, cow dummies, unsaficticated,ect... on and on.

At one of our class graduation parties (Only 25 seniors!) a BBQ, they were also serving mountain oysters. "Whats that?" our NY friend asked.

"Oh" said our class clown, Gib, "they're special oysters Texas A&m has spent years breeding to live in the rivers and streams in the mountains. It's considered a delicacy, you've read about them right?"

"Of course I have, I'll take three." said NY. After NY ate all three, Gib finally told them what they were. Poor NY, he heaved it all back up.

Just a story for you Friend.

9. And the answer is.....

It's a Coffee Burger, named after a local rancher (Mr. Coffee) who pretty much designed the thing. It's among other things, 2 pounds of hamburger. Double-decker. With cheese, please. And pickles. This is a legend in Western Nebraska, right on the Wyoming border.
