Save the heart and liver, leave the rest for the crows.

Kidney can be great if done right.
Soack over night (very important)in water with a little salt. Cut into smaller pieces brown in butter with sliced onions, salt and pepper,cover and simmer lightly. Add some (not to much just to make a light brown sauce) sour cream and enjoy with your favourite patatoes. You will wish there would be more then the 2.
Try it and you

For me, I don't do the kidneys. In the past, liver was delicious, served just like beef/calf liver. However, within the past decade most DEP/DEC/DNRs have posted advisories warning against consuming the liver. The liver not only filters out toxins, but oftentimes can hold lethal amounts of heavy metals, such as cadmium and selenium. Not good...

As for the heart I've had it pickled, grilled and fried. At the very least, if you plan on grinding any portion of the deer for sausage/burger, save the heart---at minimum it will add 2-3 pounds of grind
