Colorado's infamous ranch-country dare: bull calf testicles, sliced, breaded and fried, served with cocktail sauce and a straight face in Fort Collins bars.
Rocky Mountain oysters come out of Western ranch culture, where spring branding produced an ingredient thrifty cow camps refused to waste. Sliced thin, breaded and deep-fried, they became a bar-food rite of passage across Colorado and the plains states. In Fort Collins, The Colorado Room keeps them on a menu of localised bar food alongside sliders and poutine, which makes the city an easy place to settle the dare with a Colorado beer in hand.
