Ate Coyote... Now for Opossum!!

[CoryTDF]

  Just read through this whole thread.  I've never actually gagged before, but I just did.  Congratulations!

It was more the idea of it than anything. It was good i'm telling you.

You ain't going to like that possum.  Trust me on that one.

A long time ago, when I was living in Maine, I was told that the prisoners were fed lobster because most people felt it was barely suitable for human consumption. Ain't that funny? Well, crabs & lobsters are bottom feeders after all - and they command a darn good price at the market nowadays
.
My dad grew up down south - in Alabama, and has eaten possum, raccoon, squirrel, rattlesnake, goat, and probably some other things I can't remember. I sure would like to find a good cookbook that covers things like that. I've had goat and I liked it. If I have to trap and 'purge' a possum with sweet potatoes, then that's what I'm going to do. I'm not thinking of eating any mice, rats, or that sort of thing, but I can certainly imagine yote jerky.

Then I need to find a good book on how to use the hides of the coyote and raccoons to make some clothing. I've seen coyote coats going for $1800 or more. There has to be some way we can learn to make good things from these critters we kill.

Here's the cookbook you need...

I saw a possum in the street this morning, pre-tenderized.  Let me know if you want me to grab it up for you.

Good gross out factor guys! 

I'm working my brain out trying to think of something worse to eat than yote and opossum.  I can only come up with rats, nutria, and maybe a mountain beaver.  Please keep me posted when you start cooking up one of these tasties.......

Their balls are way better than the back straps.
