Great video sir! And like you said, just like beef fajitas, I miss the good ol' days when they were a cheap cut of meat; now they have sadly gotten up there as well in price per pound. Also, a quick tip, the double "LL" sounds like a "Y" in Spanish, and the "J" sounds more like an "H". I've always known them as "Mo-ye-haas". ;)

Sweet Bread or more commonly known as Mollejas are very common in South Texas. Boil them then grill until crispy on the outside and add a little smoke flavor like Mesquite and serve on a hot corn tortilla with a little salt and pepper and some fresh diced onion, cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice. Oh man. One of the best taco's you will have.

In the UK, we would soak the sweet breads in milk overnight, then blanch and remove the skin before frying in foaming butter. No need for the blanching and skinning with the grill as it breaks it down. Nice to see some offal on a BBQ channel, thanks.

Learned about this from my Argentine father in law. This is GREAT! Takes longer to cook than you think - I generally let then go indirect for about one hour. Salt and lemon juice, and you are good to go. Cook this.

I love fried sweetbreads. They are good as a southern dinner with mashed potatoes, cream gravy and turnip greens. Throw in fresh baked dinner rolls and sweet ice tea and it's a wonderful meal. My grandmother and mom used to make this dinner all the time. Now I make it once in a while. Never thought of grilling them. Now I have to try this.

As someone that grew up in Argentina, I agree with you, Jeremy, mollejas are delicious. Now, watch your cholesterol, my KZread grilling friend! I also grew up eating kidneys, but if properly cleaned with vinegar and water, they are delicious! A traditional Argentinian parrillada includes will include beef, sausage, blood sausage, kidney, small and/or big intestines plus French fries. Spare ribs at least was the cut to grill more often; not sure the prices are too prohibitive for most people down-deep Deep South. Happy to see you embracing my favorite way of cooking, which is grilling. But I must also say, this Grill Father has learned a whole lot watching your channel. Keep on grilling! Beautiful family, Jeremy. God bless you all.

Jeremy, thank you again for the Thermapen discount! I saved $50 friggin Canadian bucks and believe it or not.. 2 DAY shipping from Utah to Toronto.. unreal, really. This has to be the best value purchase I've made in years. Cheers to you Brother!

Awesome Video again Brother! May God continue to Bless Your Family! 🙏🏼

Pancreas sweetbreads are one of my favorites foods on earth. They're great pan fried, deep fried, grilled, but by far my favorite is quickly browned over high heat, then braised with some mushrooms, onions, carrots, leeks, a little garlic, in some stock/broth. 45yrs ago When I was a small kid my grandmother was using truffle in this. It was a new year or holiday meal. Now truffles are out of my price range, so I just use mushrooms & while I will say truffles add that special something, mushrooms are just as good imho.

@13:00 Yes! My favorite part of BBQ is having my young sons try new things!❤

I love Mollejas!!! Grew up eating these very often at the ranch and most times anyone grilled friends family they were definitely on the grill. Best in corn tortilla tacos. Another way is to season wrap in foil and throw that on the grill wont be browned but more tender. Great vid brother🤙

Always looking for something new and interesting to cook, will have to try this one! Looks amazing!! Great video as always, from a fan in the UK 👍👍

I like the way you talk about food. I was 5 years old sitting in a booth at Carlos O'Brien's in N phx when i decided i wanted to be a chef. I literally said to myself that cooking is like mad science, it was winter '96. And after I did my time in the army I went to culinary school and that sense of mad science is something I still hold very dear. You have my sub.

My dad's been grilling mollejas since I was little and my sister likes them extra crispy so what my dad does is crisps them up a little the slices them in half making them really thin and extra crispy ... So good!!

Looks tasty. I've always soaked them in milk overnight, blanched them to remove the outer membrane and pan fried them in some fat like butter, with garlic and thyme until golden and crispy. Your approach is definitely quicker! Man it's been a minute since ive had them though!

Always wanted to try this

In Argentina they have two types of sweetbreads. Heart and throat. With the heart being the better of the two. Sadly, I haven't been able to find heart sweetbreads in the states. Hope to see a video on chichulines next.

I'm in Michigan, and today I grilled sweet bread it's crazy that I see this video after I was done grilling. I get them at a meat market, and they are so good with Tortillas and salsa very good. I'm originally from Texas, so I grew up eating this.

I had these unknowingly when i was in San Louis Potosi for work several years ago. They served slices off a spit, similarly as a Brazilian steakhouse does. Didnt know exactly what it was until this video. I still remember how delicious it was though.

Looks really good, I'd definitely try that.

I love them. The texture can be improved by giving them a very quick blanching and then pressing them down with a weight for a while

That sweet bread went from super gross to absolutely delectable. I've got to give this a try. Great video.

When I seen your thumbnail I knew exactly what it was, delish!!

😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 grilled this tonight and it was delicious 🤤 thx for the tip

Love them

Good video and it’s great fried like fish too! Cornmeal flower salt and pepper.

In South Texas we pronounce it Moyehas if you pronounce it phonetically. I’ve never cooked any but you can pretty much find anything in south Texas between HEB and at the many many “carnicerías” which have more specialty items that are more common to Northern Mexico and border towns in the US. Maybe someday I’ll try this. I probably ate this at some point durning my childhood and don’t remember.

Sweet breads are one of my favorite things to cook on my Santa maria pit. So good!!

I've only had the French preparation of sweet breads. Absolutely delicious.

wow! the bbq vid I needed

The once a year I do them, I blanch them first. I then go to the grill if the weather permits or into the oven then under the broiler. Alternatively, I've done them in small pieces (after blanching) in a butter saute with onions & mushrooms & garlic. They'll release some liquid that way & I've combined that with some white wine & butter and serve it all over rice with some black pepper and parsley.

I've seen those in the store for years and never knew how to cook them. Thanks for this video. I'm buying some next time I see them

lol....mollejas have been a staple here in south texas (rio grande valley) since before i was born and im 50!! great stuff, brother.

SweetBread is delicious prepared and cooked in the French Style with Dijon mustard sauce✌❤🤗

In south Texas it is pretty common to make.... We pronounce it moe-yeh-hahz. There are a variety of ways it gets prepped down here. Tortillerias (tortilla factories) tend to fry them... which isn't terrible, but I prefer smoked. But I also usually brine them before I throuw them on a smoker. It makes the meat a little firmer and stick a little less to the grill. The longer you smoke them, the better they are. You want the outside to have some crispiness to it. They have a high fat content, which is why the lemon and salt goes so well with it. I like pairing it with a chunky guacamole and tostadas.

I boil my mollejas in salt, pepper, garlic with a bay leaf. THEN I put them in the grill to crisp up and I NEVER worry about sticking to the grill. They are soft and taste amazing with corn tortilla tacos onions and cilantro of course.

I have been making these for years but I smoke them with Mesquite wood and just season them with salt and pepper and sear them for the crust at the end. We make tacos with them. Diced onion salsa verde and corn tortilla very delicious. I reccomed them and suggest u try them.

We smoke mollejas here in south Texas a lot. Sold in most meat markets here in south Texas. We eat mostly everything on the cow, brains, head for barbacoa, liver, mollejas etc.

He would fry us up a patty and we would watch Wide World of Sports on Saturday.... good memories. Also great for tanning hides, lol. I am ok with eating organs, they just have to be cleaned and cooked properly.

I like the yard work noise in back round every now and a shine I kinda prefer I little constant nature or ambient natural sounds the landscape sounds is nice and the sizzle too

I like to splice lengthwise to reduce thickness, sometimes mid cook to get them thinner, more surface area, more exterior crusty goodness!

South BBQ Texas Delicacy!! Crunchy on a corn tortilla and Pico de Gallo is a MUST

Mollejas have been made in south Texas 956 RGV area for a very long time add some nice seasoning wrapp in foil throw in the embers or just set a side while you cook your other meats when your done take them out of the foil add your favorite seasoning again add to direct heat till you get that crust you like and then enjoy trust me. Mexicans been doing this for a lot of years we love them. some pico de gallo and a warm flour tortilla or corn add some lime and forget it you'll want it in every cook out you do.

its over..... bringing the adorable daughter in? shes stinkin' with cuteness lol sweetbreads are amaazinggg

Hell yeah! It’s been 50 years but growing up in McAllen it was fajitas, tripas and mollejas every Forth of July. Good times.😊

As a kid my friends grandpa used to fry up sweetbreads and they were delicious. I havent had them since. I guess i know what Im grilling up this weekend!

Here in the US so many people see organs as being degusting in some way. It important to know that in the rest of the world eating organs INCLUDING brains is normal and delicious. Sweat breads are no exception and are amazing! Thanks for sharing!!

I've had them once and they were delicious. Gonna habe to grill some myself.

Down here where I live in south Texas , I least order my tacos with mollejas and beef mixed , I order the mollejas extra crunchy, the combination is amazing. Taqueria Rios in San Juan.

Just made some for Easter cheers from South Texas.

Brains brains brains! Send more paramedics 😂

Molleja!!!! Dale!! Delicious!!!

I used to love cooking these in the restaurant I used to work in. So tasty!

The cows udder is also very good.

I'm from down south Texas and you can find them everywhere. I was always taught to boil them for about 15 min first and then cook them on the grill.

I never met an offal I didn’t like. My mother used to find sweetbreads somewhere and I loved it. It’s very hard to find in my area now. Btw, beef kidneys can be tamed by soaking them in milk in the refrigerator overnight. I’ve also used salt water by I like milk better. I much prefer pork and lamb kidneys as they are not as strong.

My stepfather always served sweetbreads as an appetizer when BBQing at our pool parties.

When you cook kidneys you need to "Boil the Piss" out of them !!

Nope! Not me. As soon as he said sweet breads LOL. I wish my taste buds weren’t so vanilla but NOPE! lmaooooo

Your kids are soooo lucky, my generation grew up eating way overcooked chicken and pork. Everyone was so scared of undercooked meat that they cooked the heck out of everything and there was no such thing as a hot smoker in Canada where I’m from. My 6 year old says his favourite food is meat on the bone, I attribute that to my smoker.

Mo-ye-has. Very common in Mexican cuisine as well.

I’ve been eating this for many years and it’s super soft meat. It’s commonly eaten in Central Asian and Middle Eastern countries also. You will find it in some restaurants in NYC, like Uzbek food cuisine. We Americans love meat and bbq but we discard so many good parts. When I toured Central Asia I was surprised by “weird” meats like sheep brains, kidneys, livers, bull testicles. They have a breed of sheep we don’t have in North America which produces healthy fat in their butts. They use that fat for meat grilling, provides tons of flavor.

We used to cook these (mollejas) all the time in college. Super cheap for tacos. But, fajitas were also less than $1 per pound then. Lots of times 50 cents a lb. No one outside of the tex mex border areas were buying them. Now they are in.

Loved the part your daughter asks for some. My little 3 years olds name is Emma too and she is a copy of yours. Found that to be the topping on allready a great vid.

Sweet Breads have been an open secret in Fine Dining for a long time. Not too many places serve it these days. Pretty much traditional French restaurants. A lot of that connective tissue around it gets cleaned up and then it's pressed. "Traditional" is to saute them and serve with a sauce. I'll have to give this a try sometime. There is not much else on a cow that I prefer to have.

Kalvbräss in Swedish. Delicious 👍😀

The little cutie was what made me really believe it's delicious. Kids don't lie, especially their facial expressions.

In Argentina you can get the heart sweetbreads which are bigger, juicer and just damn better than the thymus gland ones available here in the states.
