Just backwards use the rat meat instead of chicken...frozen or fresh vegtables and some pie crust

I may be a ol' school but quarter them up, dredge in a little flour, salt and pepper, and fry in a little oil. Cant beat that, especially the young, tender squirrels. Another way, Mother-in-law will sear the quarters in a frying pan on both sides (to seal the juices) wrap piecesin tin foil and bake in the oven till it falls off the bone. Good for the older ones.

I'm with you. Also goes well seared and simmered in spaghetti sauce believe it or not.

.22 LR in the head - great way to teach a youngster to hunt. No way I'd ever take a scattergun out for tree rats.  Don't know anyone who has actually...

I like to butterfly them with a half slice of bacon and some curry powder and slide them in the broiler. Have also been taking the hearts and livers...they cook real fast in a sautee pan with some butter, s&p, and garlic....turns out this is the only liver that i can eat, very yummy!!

Takes a lot to make a good meal, but the hunting is what makes it fun. I like messing with them on my front deck. I know stuff like "Turbo-Squirrel" and "Peanut Butter Jar Bingo". The little bass turds are a lot of fun to mess with.

Lil'Bit is just now getting big enough to go on the opening day hunt. We load up the stuff, hunt in the morning. Come back and fix a pot of squirrel and dumplins or grilled, then back out for more. Makes for a good day of fun.

All my squirrels are taken with head shots with a 22.  I used to dress them out and skin them.  Then I got to thinking.  theres not much meat to mess with on the ribs and back.  So I started just taking the legs off.   What we do is boil the meat.  then strip it off the bone.  ANd make stew out of it.  It makes great stew.  Never thought of pot pie.  Thats sounds good too.

I have had it fried and stewed but prefer fried but some times fry it up and make gravy out of the left over grease and toss them in and serve with mashed potatoes

Ever tried squirrel head and dumplings?

Friends mom used to make it....just like chicken and dumplings, except used squirrel meat and threw the heads in with it.....when it's done u pull the skull apart and eat the brain along with the rest of the meal

anyone out there ever cook them on an open fire at camp side or grill them over charcoal? Thought it might be good but never tried it. Let me know if you have and how it was.

Thanks

GArlic and butter..can fry up anything with garlic and butter and make it edible..add a little bacon too- great and the way i intriduced my wife and a friends to wild game. they refused to admit they ate it but i was there and they came back for seconds and then some. That was years ago and she now will eat almost anything i cook. Hmm cant wait to get back and go get some...good hunting and a great thing in teaching someone else to hunt and use the catch!!
