Who likes the taste of squirrel?
 
Heard squirrel actually tastes pretty good. some people love it, depending on if it's tree squirrel, ground, etc. how about you guys?

For me, it's kind of a good memory thing. I grew up on them in the Ozarks. Although I'd rather have a steak, squirrel and dumplings is a tradition in the fall. It's what you eat when you don't have cottontail or quail.

Tree squirrels are good eating, but can be real tough. Long low temp cooking needed

I agree with this statement as i found them good to eat but just to tough for me to bother with..

I have never been able to develop a fondness for them, which is too bad. They are probably my all time favorite game animal to hunt, which I no longer do whithout anything to do with them.

Squirrel is by far my favriot meat by far. ( I shoot ground squirrels)
Fried, grilled, oand cooked over a open fire is how I have had them and they are yummy!;)
