I modified my mother in law’s Swiss steak to exchange squirrel for round steak. Have a couple possible ingredient volunteers cutting in the oaks behind my house. Season opens next week. I only need six! Plus I’ve been investigating making my own fly dubbing from squirrel hair. Hope nobody questions me about " shaving my squirrels"!:yikes
What a man does in the privacy of his own home :yikes:Rofl
Tree rats are delicious!
Especially cooked in a crockpot with gravy!
Looking forward to getting after em here in 2-3 weeks if it cools down!
I look forward to seeing the finished product. Sounds pretty tasty.
Be better to eat them before they can eat the wiring in your attic
They like to run across the street and then turn back and get run over, feel sorry for the critters.
I don’t eat them but I like them.
we call them pancake squirrels here if the make the fatal mistake of a u turn in the road , not many folks hunt squirrel in Texas and we are flat out loaded with them big fox squirrels,
heck we have no season or bag limit there are so many last time I checked …:yikes
I love to hunt them with my Gamo pellet rifle, my .22, and at times will bust out the Benelli 12qauge when I’m having problems filling out the recipe!
we shotgun em when we actually hunt them most of the time , spring when the leaves are full and the young ones are about is the Texas thing and we shoot the little ones , the big ones are leather tough
Great day in the woods. Shot half the squirrels I need for my recipe, and for a first time squirrel shaver, that went well also. Had a chance to fill my limit but off hand while they are moving with a .22 can be tough at times.
They certainly don’t sit still much
Got another one today. Saw many, but like you said, they don’t sit still much. Did find a great spot to bow hunt and had 3 small bucks walk in close to me.
That’s always a plus
My wife fries it and puts white gravy on it for me! :biggrin
I am headed out with the GAMO .177 now that my knee replacement didn’t happen yesterday due to a hematoma on my leg. Oct 26th is the new surgery date. Look out tree rats I’m coming for ya!
That sounds good also
