what to do with a coyote?

[Smossy]

Screw it, Ill eat a coyote, like pianoman said.. Good brine, good smoke sesh. Should make for something good enough to maybe enjoy?

Thats nasty! I wouldn't eat a yote, dog or wolf. Same damn thing.

Dog Meat is considered quite a delicasy in many different cultures. Hell, some cultures think bacon is gross.  We think dog is gross, because why...     

Because it licks its balls, eats its crap and other crap. Has worms, parvo and other deseases. Im not a food snob by any means but dog is a little out of my boundrys. More for you and andrew zimmerman i guess. I'll stick with bacon. Im not tring to talk you out of it, go ahead, you probably won't even get that sick.

 

_following this thread_ I'm actually interested in what people do with them too, BESIDES eating them. I won't go there. Considering I'll most likely be doing rifle and Smossy is archery, there's really no time we can get out an actually HUNT together except for coyotes. Plus they killed my cat  ... lol.

I thought about cleaning/dressing up the skulls, like painting them type of dressing up, then selling. I'll see where that gets me.

Ill EAT them like a savage. Just for Koda!

Smossy....I'll buy you the marinade of your choice....say $10 limit.....if you eat a backstrap off a coyote that you or anyone else shoots.

Id want it to be killed in-front of me, I want it as fresh as possible, I will 100% atleast attempt to eat it. Im not scared to eat an animal. People used to eat rats back in the day.. Cooked over a fire, alittle crispy, good to go.

Im not eating a heart right out of a salmon though, Thats crossing the line to me. Ill try almost anything as long as its cooked.

People also used to die from plague by the millions. Not as cool as it sounds i'm sure. Would you eat a kitty cat?

[h20hunter]

Agreed on fresh....However....you are on your own. I'll eat raw salmon heart no problem. A little shot of lemon juice...maybe a shooter of tequila...good to go. Songdog.....thats a big nope!

Nope. I love cats and I consider them pets. Same as a dog and on top of that its against the law, Regardless species, a coyote is just a coyote to me. Its meat. Ill try one no doubt, That doesnt mean Im going to enjoy it and do it on a reguler basis, But yes Ill try one.. I see that crap everyday. "I wont eat this, I wont eat that - Well have you tried it? - No its gross" Ok than.....
and In all reality it kind of erks me. Dont nock it untill you try it.

And to this, yes people used to die from plague, coyotes would eat them and in turn die, or carry on that disease to be eatin by another person and the chain goes on. That's not something we deal with this days really.
So it all boils down to Meat is Meat, In Alaska lots of people eat coyote, Or any MEAT they can get they're hands on, They do-not have the opportunity to be picky a majority of the time, specially in harsh seasons.

From what Im reading on other forums/reports of people eating coyote, It sounds like jerky would be the best bet if you want to actually maybe get some enjoyment out of it. Im seeing comparisons next to eating burnt tires. But hey like I said Ill try it atleast once.

I'm thinking I should try for one just in time for  the hw BBQ

[Kowsrule30]

I've skinned a few and have their hides tanned... Never kept a skull but that would be cool... I actually have a frozen pelt and head in the freezer still... The last dozen or so were just left for whatever want's to eat them... The last one I remember had an eagle on it before I was out of sight...  Vermin...

I've eaten coyote before, we made stew out of it. It wasn't bad, but it's not something I would crave. 

Next time I shoot one I'll take pictures of the whole process. Meat is meat in my eyes. I've at least tried eating one of everything I've killed.
