I for one cant wait. I imagine horses are probably ideal for low and slow cooking. I dont know how smoke would affect the taste, but im pretty excited.

I bet mustangs are delicious, free range grass fed. Yum.

good. about time

I'd eat big daddy's ass before I ever ate horsemeat. I don't think I could eat horse anymore than I could a dog.
