Ridge Runner, you just posted my favorite meal!

squrrils are real good i just fry em in butter and find some good seasoning and put it on and eat it

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.

:(I don't have any squirrel left in the freezer -- now I am going to have to go out and get some more -- makin' me hungry! Kevin1 is right-- just about any chicken recipe will translate well with squirrel or Rabbit for that matter--if you can find some.

good luck and good huntin'

I'm gonna have to try Branson's suggestion. That sounds really good right now!

I throw about a half dozen of them in a roaster with a packet of lipton onion soup mix and some water. It melts in your mouth!
