You'll never guess what I ate...
 

Yeah so... I've been hunting these past few days with my buddy. No turkeys around so we got annoyed and yesterday we had just had enough, no ammount of calling or decoys could get any birds near us. We switched hunting spots and saw nothing but a few squirrels.... infact there was 1 that wouldn't stop barking at us(we call it barking), so my buddy loses his temper, turns and aims at this squirrel up in the tree and BLAM! Down comes the squirrel. SO we gut him and skin him (and yes it was a him), threw on some garlic powder and salt and pepper, then grilled him up. And no lie, it tasted just like grilled chicken. So now... I have this insatiable hunger for fuzzy forest creatures...yeah not really. BUT i will eat squirrel again. If you get a chance to, try it, seriously.

I ate it one time a couple of years ago.I actually thought it tasted like turkey:)I have to say,i have witnessed the skinning and gutting.Poor lil things,they are annoying as hell though!

BRING IT ON MOTHERFUCKER.......THEY CALL ME ZWOTA...THE NINJA SQUIRREL

Good. Squirrels are freaks. I think they might be from space.

They are so cute though,i could never kill one.Its so sad to see them dead and all stiff...:( :(

They're definitely cute. The other day outside there was bunny on the lawn. Then, a squirrel came down from a tree, and the bunny saw it and apparently thought it was another bunny and started chasing it. It was so cute and funny watching the terrified squirrel fleeing from a curious little rabbit. But, there is something profoundly strange and unwholesome about squirrels. I think it's their tiny hands and that they should be called Pygmy Acorn Monkeys, regardless of their actual classification.

Hey....without our tiny hands....we couldn't give great massages

I have to say I have no objection to eating them but I'd never kill an animal for sport. But if it's dead, might as well make it's death for something and feed yourself.

BUT FUCK YOUR GREY SQUIRREL BITCHES!

Sorry. But to be honest I hate grey squirrels. Thanks to the little wankers being brought in to England and breeding like mad, our native red squirrels are nearly extinct. Seriously, I know only one person that's ever seen a red squirrel now. The grey ones steal their nests and food.

some of my best pals are squirrels

Wow, I've never seen a black squirrel before.

Ghetto squirrels

Ha ha ha ha

:D :p

Hilarious...They're too adorable to eat. I was making fun of one, one day when I was walking along this path. It was stretched out flat like a Pancake. I didn't think it was dead or anything because its tail was still bushy and pointed upright. So I taunted it. I said: "Squirel if you don't get your little furry ass out of my way...." but as I kept walking, I realized why i was lying there like that. It really was dead. I guess it was stuffing nuts in its mouth when a car came by and knocked the wind out of him/her enough to die. Poor furry pal. :(

I'll try any kind of meat once.So I would taste Squirrel meat.Bring it on!

I woudn't eat a squirrel...they're too adorable. Friendly minus the crazy "ghetto" ones with Rabbies. They're too small of an animal for me to consume...they're defenseless.

They can run and climb well. Not like these guys.

Thats exactly how we cooked it too.

And Urge, this one was a dick. He deserved it.

Squirrels are the Mascot for my College. They are cute and agile...but wimpy at the same time...I take it that's why we're suppose to call them "Fighting Squirrels;" but oh, the irony in that.

Squirrel is actually a good meat. It's often thrown into the 'southern backwoods' culinary category with opossum and groundhog.

The only thing is you need a few of them to make a good meal, or 'a whole mess of squirrel' if you will. If you cook it right, it's delicious.

your welcome. i know you english brought us such wonders as pigeons and smallpox, so right back at you.


Just feel lucky nothing from Australia has come back. between sheep and rabbits the english damn near decimated large portions of that country (mice too). imagine if something like funnelwebs or bulldog ants decided england was a nice place to live. you would be begging for grey squirrels.


for the record, i like squirrels and have no interest in eating any kind of rodent.

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH! KILL IT!

Yeah he is exactly right. There isn't much meat on them at all.

Next time i'm gonna try it with some barbque sauce... hmmmm that sounds nice....

on a side note, I have been having weird cravings for it ever since i first ate it.

newb, I love your pictures! I have the same picture you posted but mine won't move anymore. :( I was thinking about that pic when Doc mentioned their hands and when I scrolled down, I was pleasantly surprised to see it.

Urge, I love your pics, too. How cute!

Squirrels are my favorite animal. They always look like they're having so much fun.

this is now the I Love Squirrel Thread - i dedicate it to Chronogirl .. who i hope to one day shove a nut starved squirrel down her pants :D

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!

And I thought that grey squirrels were gross.

Those black squirrels... Are... Just... wrong.

Really? I thought they were kinda cool!

They're Canadian. You have to eat them with mayo.

Side effects of eating the black squirrel... :p

the expression on his face makes me laugh
too bad the squirrel is blurry - it was sitting on him, but he moves around too much so it grabbed a peanut and was jumping off when i took the pic.

Hmmmm, I love how I try to make serious threads, and they die. Then I make a thread about eating squirrels and it thrives.

But yeah, those black squirrels look tastey. I'd love to see them on a bed of sauteed onions. :)

serious threads arent any fun. (including mine)


i'm here for the fun.

Oh I know, I was just pointing out something I found funny.

Very few things are more serious than a mans food. Add in beer and boobs, and you'll have a philosophical explosion right here on HDC.

well .. some kind of explosion ...

That was a gift! A gift for you!




And I'm not annoyed at the grey squirrels being here, I'm annoyed at the fact that them being here is killing off our native squirrels. Apparently it's from a disease that they carry but only affects the red ones.

Yeah, me neither. They look strange.

Anyway, one of my co-workers living in country and is a big hunter and eats squirrel all the time. He likes it, but it tends to be on the gamey side. Personally, I don't think I could eat squirrel unless I was starving.

Maybe if your native red ones weren't such big fuzzy pussies(Not the lady-parts) you wouldn't have that problem.

Maybe if your grey ones stopped acting like fags and fought fairly we'd find out who the pussies are.
