My grandmother and mother used to make squirrel pie for me when I was younger. Basically a chicken pot pie substituted with squirrel meat that had been picked off the bone after boiling. I got tired of skinning squirrels by the time I was in college and haven’t had a squirrel pie in 25 years.

Anybody have pics of these delicious sounding recipes? After all, most people eat with their eyes!

Not really a fan of skwurl but some of these sound pretty good.
May have to try me some on Tacos.

I've been putting a couple of squirrels (whole) in the smoker for a couple hours seasoned to preference. After smoking put them in a slow cooker for a couple hours in chicken broth.

Pull the meat apart and use like smoked chicken for sandwiches or in fajitas.

Squirrel added to loaded baked potato soup for 2 hours and then add crumbled bacon and shredded colby on top.

We like to boil and boil and boil till the meat is soft.

Then take a can of cream of mushroom, cream of chicken, can of veg all, and add your squirrel meat. Simmer for a while.

Pour on top of fresh biscuits. Delicious!

Green Chile Squirrel is one of my favorites. It’s a killer recipe from Hank Shaw, highly recommend giving it a try. https://honest-food.net/tender-squirrel-recipe/

I have heard endless ways on how to cook squirrels but I’m curious to hear everyone's favorite. My personal favorite is boiled then fried but I also love squirrel and dumplings.

Buddy, that sounds fire! Boiled then fried and squirrel 'n' dumplins are straight flames! Smoked squirrel with BBQ sauce is a vibe too, but classics never go outta style.

A couple of weeks back I made gumbo using squirrel in place of chicken. Turned out great. Just pop them in a pressure cooker, pull off the meat, and use as shredded chicken. Do the same thing for rabbits - basically a 1:1 replacement for chicken in stews, pot pies, soups, chicken and dumplings, etc. As a bonus, I used cut up smoked snack sticks in lieu of andouille sausage (although I have now upgraded to making my own "cajun" sausage).
