Is it complicated to cook squirrel? any dangers? ( ie: toxicity?)
EddieCoyle said:She's also lying when she says that she's eaten squirrel. I've eaten it and it doesn't taste "just like chicken", it tastes like shit. If she'd really ever had squirrel, she would not mistake it for chicken. If I made squirrel cutlets and served them to my friends, they wouldn't ask, "Are these chicken cutlets?"
They'd ask, "Dude, are these shit cutlets?"
You know this because you've eaten it with garlic and herbs. When you cook it that way, it tastes like garlic, herbs... and shit! You gotta admit, when you were done, you weren't thinking, "Man, I wish there was more of that!" You were thinking, "Holy shit, I'm glad I'm done with that!"
Even if you marinate squirrel in vinegar overnight, and prepare it "right", the best you can do is to make it taste " a little less like shit."
Anybody that eats squirrel and likes it does so only to "justify" killing it. I'm over that now. If I feel like killing squirrels, I go out and kill them. I'll dry their tails, send them to Mepps, and they'll give me $1 each for them. If I use a .22 and kill enough of them, I make money.
