Squirrel Dumplings

[venture]

Great looking meal, Roller.  I would eat that any time!

Except I mis-read the title.  I thought you said "squirrel dumpings"? 

Now I am thinking about the neighbor's cat that thinks my garden is a public cat restroom?

Good luck and good smoking.

Thanks Guy`s...give it a try...Venture you better leave that cat alone..although I really can`t see much difference...

Any chance of getting the recipe for how you cooked up the squirrels?  I've never tried squirrel, but next time I'm in the woods and they're in season, I'll consider taking a few.

Thanks

My brother and I grew up squirrel hunting. We usually ate them fried like chicken. People who never tried it have no idea just how tasty it is.

Did you actually boil them with the heads on them? I would have thought you should cut the heads off first?

Oh wow Roller that looks great! I haven't had squirrel in many years. I used to go hunting with my uncle and still remember cleaning and skinning them. Granny would flour and fry them up...Good eats. She also made it with dumplings, both ways - your way and the drop kind but never from Bisquick! Thanks for the memories and would you post up the boiling and seasonings - doing some squirrel hunting here too!

Dont have squirrels down here but would have no trouble eating that plate. I love the fact that it obviously resonated with so many people. We do have a hell of a lot of possums & this big guy,a breeding pair will eat 200 possums a year. Does resemble Northern Hemisphere owls ,he is a powerful owl .ninox strenua. Wingspan about 4-5 feet.
