Chitterlings are typically enjoyed cooked or barbecued, infusing them with a smoky flavor. They can also be included in a variety of hearty and savory dishes, such as soups and stews. Though preparation requires a little patience, the end result is an indulgently authentic taste adventure well worth the endeavor.
