Squirrel recipe
I came up with a squirrel recipe of my own I would like to share.
Squirrels, quartered (as many as you want to fix, but 3 will fill me up)
Cooking oil
Wheat flour (regular flour will work fine, but wheat is better)
Onion salt
Liquid Smoke (not necessary, but adds a nice smoke flavor that I like)
Put the squirrels in a pot of boiling water and let them boil for 1.5 to 2 hours. This is important. If you have ever fixed squirrels you will know that they are tough as pine knots. The long boiling time makes them tender. Keep an eye on the boiling water as it will boil off and you will have to add warm water. When they are done boiling and cooled off you need to coat them real good in wheat flour. Now coat the bottom of the skillet (in my case, an electric skillet) with cooking oil. If you want, you can add a capfull of liquid smoke to the oil and swish it all around to get it mixed up. Turn the heat up to 250 and when the oil heats up, add the squirrels. Then sprinkle onion salt evenly on the squirrels (that is what makes it good). Cook till light brown and flip over, then repeat with the onion salt. When both sides are light brown, take them out of the skillet and let cool. Then dive in!
Note: The liquid smoke i mentioned is NOT the barbecue sauce. It is made by LEM and I bought it at Gander Mountain. Also, it will make your house smell like smoke.
