Although Rocky Mountain oysters can be sautéed, braised, broiled, and poached, they're most often peeled, pounded flat, coated in flour, salt and pepper, and fried.

Rocky Mountain Oysters don't taste much like regular Oysters and actually Rocky Mountain Oysters have a gamey taste and even a liver taste to them.

For some people Rocky Mountain Oysters taste good and most people who eat Rocky Mountain Oysters say they taste a bit like Liver.

Mountain Oysters can be eaten and several people still do eat mountain oysters which are essentially bull testicles.

I personally would not eat them but some people do enjoy them.

The Bull Testicles are called Rocky Mountain Oysters or even just Mountain Oysters because they changed the name to be more appealing as the name bull testicles were not appealing to many people and they had no luck selling them as bull testicles so they changed the name to Mount Oysters to increase the sales of them.

Most people who've eaten Mountain Oysters describe the taste of Rocky Mountain oysters as “rich.”

Others who have eaten the Mountain Oysters have said they taste like liver, and yet others describe them as veal cutlets.

Though sheep, bison and pig can be used, too.
