One pie will feed 5-6 people.
Andy I’m not going to make any bones about it ! I hate skinning squirrels . But I just googled it and watched this video . I actually think they might know of what they speak . I’ll be trying this technique in the next ten days . https://www.themeateater.com/hunt/sm...el-in-1-minute

That’s the same way my grandfather did it . He never got hair on them , I never could accomplish that . I could get it done but always got hair on them .

Craig, is a "Virginia Brunswick Stew" close enough? From one of my favorite cooks, just came in the email yesterday while I was hunting with Mike Koneski:

My wife makes a killer pot pie. Has to have two crusts or it's not a legit pot pie!! Just substitute pheasant, chukar, grouse, etc for chicken and run with it. My Dutchie relatives don't use crust. I call that soup!!

Heven't shot tree-rats in what seems forever. Used to sit in my pappy's oak stand by some huge boulders with the single shot Winchester .22 LR bolt and pick them off as they tried to retrieve acorns. Used to take a bag full home and my mom would quarter them and brown them in butter. Nix besser!!

Last line, I said "BEFORE I COVERED IT" Of course there are TWO crusts I think it would be bad without it.

As for skinning them, do it ASAP and you'll have no problems. I'd keep a plastic bag in my pouch for the skinned squirrels. I'd do the same for rabbits too. Last few times I hunted rabbits they were covered with fleas/lice. That's not going into my coat!!

I’m not that up on them to give an educated answer . I just figeured the CW recipe a good place to start. I was however looking at a thirty minute pheasant curry recipe from the same place as your link . And having just returned from the Food Kitty I brought home some Thai Curry and coconut milk . I can see the Pheasent curry happening this weekend .
