boil in plain water for about an hour or until tender, or pressure cook for 30 min, remove, roll in flour and fry until brown seasoned to taste, make gravy in the skillet, when gravy is done put squirrel back in, serve with fried/mashed potatoes and homemade bisquits.

Ridge runner nailed it. IMO, you don't have to boil though. Just brown them in a pan, then add a little liquid, cover the pan and simmer until tender.

I really like Brunswick Stew, which is commonly made with squirrel. Just google it, select one of the recipies that come up.

get about 4 of em and cut into pieces and throw in a slow cooker along with carrots, potatoes, onions, some creole seasoning and let cook 2hrs. Afterwardsmix a package of brown gravy mix in a bowlof hot water, add to slow cooker and let cook for 30mins. Cook you a nice pot of rice and you are all set. Be prepared to share because your neighbors will surround the house like cats hearing a bag of meow mix being opened.

I've found that most poultry recipes lend themselves well to tree rats. Squirrel and dumplins, fried squirrel, squirrel stew, squirrel Wellington, squirrel gumbo...

I'm a fan of them fried in pieces, coated with a spicy bbq sauce, and dip 'em like wings. So good. Gotta go kill some squirrels now.
