OP here. My husband cleaned it for us.

There's more bone than meat so we're braising it. We'll let you know how it tastes in a few hours.

Whatever you do, don't eat the brains. They carry a virus like mad cow disease and can kill you.

I would stew it with bacon, onions, potatoes and mushrooms. Throw in some rosemary and thyme. I haven't cooked squirrel, but it works with other game meat.

I had a copy with this! I seem to remember one step was stepping on the tail with a sturdy boot while skinning it.

Gross!!! You need to look up wild game recipes. People only eat squirrels if they absolutely have to because there isn't much meat on them as I understand it.

But yuck!!

Lightly fry it in antioxidant spices, put it between two pieces of bread. To get the full flavor, it's important that you carry it around in a lunch bag for 4-5 hours before enjoying your meal.

Why would you just kill something for no reason? If you were a deer hunter and needed food, I could understand it. But you don't even know how to prepare the squirrel, and I doubt you will actually eat it, since it is a rodent. Poor squirrel lost his life for no reason.

I don't. But I think there's an interim step euphemistically called cleaning.

I made a bet with my sister that if she killed a squirrel, I would cook it. Turns out, she's a better shot than I thought.

Does anyone have a recipe?
