how would you cook it ?
I don't know, but it would have to be very well done to get rid of any trichinosis.

Roasted Raccoon and Yams
~ 1 raccoon, dressed
~ 2 red pepper pods
~ 1 tsp salt
~ 1/4 tsp pepper
~ 1/8 tsp sage
~ 2 tbsp lemon juice
~ 4 large yams, peeled and quartered
~ 1/4 cup brown sugar
~ 1/2 cinnamon
~ 1/8 tsp ginger
Place the raccoon in a large pot with the peppers. Cover with water, bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour.
Remove raccoon from the pot and place on a rack in a roasting pan.
Pour the lemon juice on the raccoon. Sprinkle on the salt, pepper and sage.
Place the yams in the pan around the raccoon. Add 1 cup of water.
Mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon and ginger.
Sprinkle on the yams.
Cover and bake at 325 degrees for 2 hours or until the meat is crisp and brown.
Transfer to a serving platter.
Serve and Enjoy!
I thought I'd get to the end and it would say to eat the yams and throw away the rest. :P
Actually, it does sound pretty good. I'd probably try it. It is funny how a person can get something in their head like how gross raccoon would be to eat, and yet it probably really is good if given a chance. (Now I wish I hadn't blasted that coon in my yard 3-times with the 12 ga.) :P :chuckle:

We had raccoon a few times. The ones that had been eating apples were pretty good. The ones caught on the creeks would gag a maggot.
I will never eat an opossum again unless starving to death.
Now beaver was the best Thanksgiving dinner I ever ate or at least the most memorable one.
Cougar by far and away was the best of any of it and every year I do not get a cougar, my wife gets upset. We got some cougar meat from her uncle one year and now she is hooked.

However, now that I think about it; I'm sure we all have eaten deer and elk, that were so strong or tough, that if that was our only taste of it, we would probably not want it again either. So maybe I should give it another chance...
Is it 'coon season right now?
