Wow!
Throw in some hillbilly music and some in here would be in Heaven.

Better believe it! We ate a lot of squirrel while I was a kid. Dad and I
went squirrel hunting just
about every Saturday when they were in season. Always bagged four or
five, which was enough to feed
the family. No fancy prep though. Rolled the pieces in flour, browned
them in a Dutch oven, then
added some water and put in the oven for an hour or so. Mashed potatoes
and squirrel gravy always
set it off just right.

I'll bet they taste better than baby seals, don't you?


I don’t know about seals, but Grey Whale tastes good. Landlady when I
went to school in Ohio, fixed squirrel cacciatore. Was very good with
Pasta..
