johnsbrewhouse do you cook the squirrels?
Tex_77 They become fertilizer, they are not worth the effort to clean and cook, not enough meat on them.

Must be reds, the grey and fox squirrels around here will make a tasty meal. Yeah they aren’t the meatiest of the bunch, a couple per person. The reds aren’t worth it due to size or flavor.

YooperDog grey squirrels, they were pushed into our area when they clear cut a training area on the military base just down the road. They told everyone they were restoring the oak prairies when they did it. They drove all the animals off their natural habitat so now the scrounge for food and aren’t that fat.

GWG8541 Okay, I’ll confess, this c oon a s s has never had squirrel. How about posting a recipe. Along with that, how to process a squirrel. I sit on my patio with my pellet riffle and get about 3 to 10 a week. Been just throwing them into the garbage can.

RON PARRISH Okay. That’s easy enough. Dr_Pain , I’m guessing you would approve!

Squirrels? I refer to them as tree rats. Don’t care for them. Have heard the tails are popular to those who are into fly tying.

Chef They go into the compost bin at my house, where they go after that I have no control. It either fertilizer in the spring or the coyotes, red tail hawk or owls pick them up. All I know they don’t steal nuts and the dogs don’t have to stand watch under the tree all the time. I have the squirrels trained now as soon as I come out with the pellet pistol, they are looking for a quick exit ahead of the dogs or the pellet.

GWG8541 Even I have had squirell! I am betting they are the same as rabbit, you couldn’t survive on them from the lack of fat, aside form a neighborhood squirell.

Jonathon mine are far from looking like that. They are skinny and get plenty of exercise from the dogs chasing them down the fence line and out of the yard. One of these days my females will get one, she catches rabbits

Army or Air Force military? The AF folks always have a hidden agenda, the Army folks are just down right sneaky. LOL. Never ate squirrel brains but I have eaten a few things, rabbit eyeballs for one, that most haven’t. I don’t have too many food aversions. The reds and grey’s battle it out here, reds having the numerical advantage. My biggest nemesis here are the chipmunks. You would need to kill ten just to get an appetizer and you still wouldn’t have enough hide to make one mitten. With the reds and chipmunks they do a lot of damage here.

Mepps will buy or trade them for fishing lures, etc… that they produce. They are located in Antigo, WI.
