For when times get tough....

I guess I made it to this age eating my moms cooking and that recipe sounds better than her cooking.

My cat says he wants me to make that for him.

If the fried rats don't appeal to you, try their fried spiders.

I will never live in a place where the spiders are big enough to be considered a food source.

Closest I'll ever come to eating this is tree rats. (Squirrel)

What IT do you recommend cooking the rat to?

I would try it. Can’t be any worse than my wife’s meatloaf.

My kids would say same thing about my wife's pork

Temp doesn't really matter, it's done when it disintegrates into a pile of ash.

@mcokevin
Probe tender

It’s real tough when you need Rat Sushi!

Muskrat is probably some of the most tender meat you will ever eat. If its cooked right come on down.

We have Nutria rat out here on the CA Delta, and there is no way in hell that I'd even think about eat'in one, I'll stick with eating Beaver.

Even the dog walked by without a "sniff" at 3:16.

Could be that the rats over there eat something other than the garbage they live on, here.

They tear up Tules, bullrush, hyacinth and a bunch of other aquatic plants.
The only reason I don't shoot every one I run across is the area's that I see them in need clearing, the more the better as of now. when they start tearing up area's I care about they will meet up with my little speedy friend his name is, .17 HMR

The .17 is indeed a speedy little friend. It'll reach out a good distance, too.

Sounds like fun to me.

Fairly flat trajectory as well.
