I thought I had bragging rights and was offering to share but my friends and family refuse to even try it because they believe that I am eating the toxins that are stored in the liver. I think they are stored in the fat. A Google search turns up lots of (bogus) ads for liver detox and I haven't been able to find what I am looking for. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Good link, Cheryl, thanks! http://paleohacks.com/questions/14945/are-toxins-stored-in-beef-liver-or-in-beef-fat/14948#14948 Comment by wobur wobur 2010-11-30T14:42:39Z 2010-11-30T14:42:39Z Those cultures aren't eating organs from mega farms! http://paleohacks.com/questions/14945/are-toxins-stored-in-beef-liver-or-in-beef-fat/14947#14947 Comment by wobur wobur 2010-11-30T14:40:48Z 2010-11-30T14:40:48Z More good references.

I fried one pound of trimmed and chopped beef liver in butter for about 3 mins. I added a lb of chopped, cooked mushrooms and a with a large onion and put it all in the food processor along with half a cube of GF butter. I added salt, pepper, and a little brandy to taste. I will add herbs or whatever strikes my fancy when as I defrost each 1/2 cup serving from the freezer. So far I just added chopped green onions, a touch more brandy and yumm!
