Whats yalls favorite way to cook squirrell. My dad just ruiend a limit of them yesterday and I am tired of my same ole recipes.

Squirrel and dumplings, only way I really like them. A squirrel puts more flavor in a dumpling than chicken ever could. My grandmother does the cooking and let me tell you it is fine. Will get her recipe if you are interested? She also always wants a couple of squirrels to save just for herself. She will cook them whole (head attached).

1)fry them legs.

2)squirell dumplings.

3)clean them whole cover the entire squirell in honey and bbq, place in a aluminum pan with your favorite marinade/with a cup of water. give them a little dry seasoning if you'd like, but don't get them to salty. cook on the grill with them covered in the pan, real low temp for about an hour and a half. the meat will be really tender if you don't let it dry out and it's some kind of good! you can also cut up some onions and carrots and put in the pan. tried this a couple weeks ago, just to try something different. everybody ate up and said good things.

would love the reciepe... Heard alot of grannys like squirrel brains, my best friends gmaw would ground him if he ruined the heads.

Pressure cooked with brandy and onions is my favorite.

Then bread and pan fry sq legs in some oil and butter mixture, remove and put a new onion and peppers in with the pan drippings and simmer until tender. add flour for the rouix, stirring continuously.

Turn low to simmer, and add back to the pot the sq pieces and put a lid on it; let simmer for about 15-20 minutes. Serve over rice or mashed potatoes.

I had to re-learn this once i got a sq dog; and it's dam good.
