Who here cooks with this delectable organ meat?  Any tips on buying it and freezing it?  For some reason it's harder to find these days than I remember and I have a few recipes from Antoine's requiring it, (Maison D'Or sauce for one) and the apparent rarity of it makes me want it all the more.

soak in hot sauce (franks) roll in seasoned flour and fry it... Serve with Blue cheese dressing.

I usually find it in the packaged meats section of my grocer, right by the ham, neckbones, shank, and tripe.  It is usually vacuum sealed.  

The ones I bought smelled horrible and I didn't cook them.  I understand there is a process to killing the smell prior to searing, but it didn't work for me.  

I came here for advice, but I don't think many folks actually cook it.  I have never ordered it in a restaurant, so I don't know what to expect.

thinking in the last 4 or 5 pages of the newest Chefs thread I did a write up on sweetbreads...

Thanks Chef!  I found it.  I will be trying this again.

I would caramelize some onions.
Add garlic, sweetbreads and chicken broth to cover in a covered ovenproof container.
Cook in oven at 320 degrees F for four hours.
Let cool.
Empty contents into the garbage grinder and process with running water until all down the drain.
This is why I'm not a professional cook because there are some things I will not eat.

Yeah, that is exactly how I did it the first time.
