Coyote Needed - (Coyote Tag Has Been Filled) - Thanx Halo - Video Added

Darn, I didn't know this was gonna be so funny.
First off, in my family I'm kinda referred to as a mtn man by a few of my city slicker siblings and their spouses.
At family gatherings(usually pot-luck)I usually have some kind of wild game. Everyone always turns their nose up untill they try whatever it is I cooked, smoked or whatever.
Well, I'm made some pretty cool dishes out of most anything you can think of over the years and this year's Xmas dinner calls for a coyote roast. I think a good two day soak of my secret marinade is in order then into the oven wrapped in bacon.
I'm thinking that just the hind quarters wrapped together with cotton string should make a pretty good roast. Of course those skinny backstraps could be good too.
I simply get a kick out of showing my cityfied siblings that good food does indeed come from the woods. They seem to think that all food comes from Safeway, LOL.
Anyhow, if anyone is interested, I'm serious. Holler at me. I don't see myself going on a coyote, proper, hunt before Xmas but if you are, I'll take one. Probably make a good trade for some cold beer or something.

I'll see what I can do this weekend.  LOL!  I guess that a head shot is in order?

  we are going to need an up date on say dec 26 to know how that goes over. do you tell them what it is before they eat it?

Agree, now I'm curious on how it all goes well.

Going to track this one for the outcome.  If yote ends up tasting good I might have to get the recipe and try it myself!  One of the few (interesting) animals I have not eaten yet.

Dogfish was my latest try this fall, made fish and chips not to shabby, but a pain to clean and prep.

I plan on being in that area on the 18th and might be able to bring you one.  I would research how people who eat dog preparte it as I hear the prep is very important to get that wet dog smell out of the meat.  You need to send pics of the process!  I say good for you for trying it.  I would also say that while there is lots of very good food that comes from the woods.............it's possible to go a bit overboard .

Sounds like you're just going to waste some perfectly good bacon.

Don't get me wrong, I love wild game, but if one of my relatives feeds me coyote, there is going to be a fist fight.

Fist fight? There'd be a gun fight.

[addicted]

I'd try it. 

[Carnivore]

I'd try it too, but do you think Christmas dinner is the best time?  I hope there's a prime rib or ham backup cooking next to it.  Make sure not to tell them what it is until after it's been eaten.

[shoot-em-dead]

Not going to happen at my house. Question for you pros- Is there any wild animals that eat coyotes? I can't think of any but I'm not really an expert on the carnivores either.

There is actually an article on here about a guy that made up some Coyote back strap with just salt and pepper... I'll try anthing once.... I think with a long enough soak in the brine and bacon you can make  taste ok...

That was a post i found in the Recipies area... I don't think yotes that eat mice and rabbits gona taste as good as say a fruit fed one from the wenatchee valley... I have a customer over there that whackes them all the time when they are on the way to the apple orchards to feed on apples that dropp... Good luck.. 

[WAcoyotehunter]

I think I would try it ahead of time (if I was you!!  ) to make sure it's not terrible before bringing it to the family...

[Gringo31]

I got to thinking about this a bit more.  I don't mind skinning a yote, but think I'm going to pass as I really don't feel like gutting one.
