Dude......I guess I'll be the first to say it.....others can correct me or mods can silence me if I'm wrong.


STOP POSTING

Don't talk about where you shot 'em...in or out of the shed. If you think I'm being a drama troll (knew I'd be using that one) or the big bad internet police just PM Bowhunter45 or Rtspring....ask them if posting things that are questionalble on sites like this or Facebook is a good idea.

Doh!  I almost had my 10 points...  :chuckle:

Glad it worked out.  I bet a Chipmunk Permit is about the rarest of all our tags.

 least, yellow-pine,Townsend’s, and red-tailed chipmunks The red squirrel, Douglas squirrel, and Northern flying squirrel are protected species and can be trapped or killed only in emergency situations when they are damaging crops or domestic animals (RCW 77.36.030). A special permit is required in such situations.

and i just got the permit

Having a permit now doesn't change the fact that you didn't.....Not trying to be a jerk...I still suggest STOP POSTING.....and delete your posts about any killing of Simon, Alvin, or Theodore prior to having any permit allowing you to do so.

Hurry close the barn door before the cows get out..............whoops too late......
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

Just make sure you cook it slow.. Also, dont forget to remove the glands out from behind the joint in the back legs.. if you dont it will not taste too good. They are white and on the back legs where the muscle separates.

But i cook mine in a crock pot or a pressure cooker to make them tender, all i add is some salt and pepper

Can't know about squirrel out here, as already stated, most are protected or not what I would call palatable.

Eastern hardwoods greys are my favorite game animal to eat.

Youngin's get quartered and a soak in buttermilk. Dredge in seasoned flour and fry in butter with a little bacon fat.  Make a pan gravy and serve over biscuits.

Old ones get stewed/baked/pot pied for a few hours. Tons of ways to cook them, most all delicious!

Perfect. 
I also like them in the crockpot and make a batch of dumplings at the end
