Tried beaver over the week end

dipits · 09-26-2011, 12:18 PM

Had a cooking at the farm and decided to try a beaver that was in the freezer.
Not knowing what to expect I wraped in foil with some bacon on top and put in oven at 200 temp for 6 hrs.
Pleasant surprise to all who tried it. We feed about 40 people doves and deer.
Next time I will fix with veges. and it should be hard to tell from beef stew.

Go for a young beaver, and clean all the fat off as well as making sure you have removed all the scent glands.

my first beaver was a 18 year old from Long island......
California beaver is nice........sometimes has a hint of suntan lotion.

If you need some more ideas for recipes just go to Google and type in "how to eat beaver". I sure you will find something.

More likely to find other than the topic of this thread.
