Deep Fried!!! No it doesn't taste like chicken.What's the best way to cook a squirrel?
donna c has the right answer but being from the mountains of WVa..you have to have squirrel gravy and biscuits...no way else...
soak your squirrels in salt water overnight to get out the wild taste. Drain them, roll in seasoned flour and fry like chicken. Make a gravy with the pan drippings. Serve with mashed potatoes or other veggies of your choice.

Lemon pepper squirrel is the best!! Just don't forget to tenderize the meat first! Rawhide mallets work the best. :)

barf
meaney!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


not to at all
Why do you need to cook it?
thats sick!
slowly with a lot of grease
once the meat is cleaned..





coat in a mixture of 1/2 corn meal and 1/2 flour....mix enough for the amount of meat you have....you can also add some garlic salt, and pepper to this if you want...the fry like chicken.





another thing to try...take the meat the de-bone it...place in a slow cooker with some cream of mushroom soup and and like a 1/4 cup of sour cream. Cook on low heat until meat is done. You can serve over white rice or pasta. also good over mashed potatoes.
