Roger,you really think that's beef in the jerky sticks? It's all possom, muskrat and coon! Road kill of course ,that's how it gets pressed so thin. Next time you hit a gritty part spit in out cause it's sand and gravel from the road. And it is..... all Murphy's fault!

Okay,okay, I'm not responsible, but I did add to this thing, early on. I went to the Elliott Island Muskrat Dinner at the Methodist Church sponcered by the Elliott Island Volunteer Fire Department. It was advertised far and wide, in several newspapers, radio, and tv, from 1:00-5:00. I got there at 2:00 and had a pleasant meal with about twenty people present. The lady tending the buffet pointed to five pans of meat. First was fried chicken, then fried muskrat, stewed muskrat, deep-fried muskrat, and barbequed muskcrat. I'm adventurous, so I tried them all. Best I can tell you is, "they make some really good fried chicken"!!!!

I've got a pair of grey squirrels thawing out for supper tomorrow.

Parboil for five minutes, dredge in flour/salt/pepper mixture, then fry slow in bacon grease until golden brown. Fried potatoes and yellow hominy on the side with skillet gravy and biscuits to compliment. Apple butter on leftover biscuits for dessert. Sweet tea to drink of course.

I've got a few pork neck bones to steam in some sour kraut this weekend. I usually have stewed potatoes and pork 'n beans with this meal. You boys eat what you like and I'll eat what I like......
