Right on. I like to make my stew with gratuitous amounts of cajun seasoning.

I got to be in the mood for stews and soups. I generally throw over rice or make some kind of sammich out of the meat.

What's your secret to cooking? How can I keep my squirrel meet from getting that rubbery consistency?
Slow and low, brother. I prefer to use a crock pot. I cook it in a broth (chicken or beef) at around 150 degrees for around 12 hours. It's always gonna be a bit chewy, but slow and low really helps to cook at a low heat for an extended period.
I live by my crock pot. I often have it going 5 days a week and will cook things sometimes for 24 hours or more. I've always got a bone broth something going. Often the bones soften up so much that I can eat them. Especially things like chicken.

I wouldn't eat bones, but I'd want to get the marrow out.

It's really not too bad if they get soft enough. In a survival situation I would eat em brittle.

Bones are maybe the healthiest part of the animal. Tons of minerals and the marrow is amazing. Attached to the bones the cartilage, and tendons and fluids are loaded with glucosomine and chrondroitin and gelatin. I'd rather eat those parts than the meet myself.

My husky never had an interest in retrieving kills until she tasted rabbits and squirrels. Now she's first on the scene and can barely control her excitement when she come trotting back, kill in mouth.

There is nothing better imo then being afield with your dogs. If I have my dogs I never want for human company.

Do you eat any meat? And... plants are beautiful too. I'd suggest you quit eating.

I'm so sorry that must be awful. If you ever decide to indulge in in the greatness that is cooked meat, I'll have a bowl of squirrel stew waiting for you

If that's a red squirrel they are smaller but more vicious and drive other squirrels out of their range from what I've read.
