Now my apartment isn’t going to smell like a Steinbeck novel all day.

The stock will be mixed with oatmeal and baked chicken hearts/gizzards, frozen on a cookie sheet, cut up and microwaved nightly for the benefit of my dog.

    I usually give the organ meats separately, with only the chicken stock to make the oatmeal appealing. But sometimes he doesn’t eat the oatmeal, so maybe it needs some help (or maybe too much spice snuck through to the slowcooker).

    I pour the oatmeal out on a cookie sheet so it cools quicker, then I use a spatula to separate it into tiles to make it easier to break up once its frozen.

    Organ meats are hit-and-miss at the surburban WASP grocery store, but always in stock at the latino grocer.

      International small grocers nearby don’t usually sell fresh meat. Maybe it’s an electrical grid reliability issue. Or something else.

        This is a major chain, C-Town, but I think it has a peculiar structure that gives individual stores a lot of flexibility in serving their local markets.
