    ...after skinning and cleaning, rub squirrels (1 per person) with Cajun seasoning and place in a roasting pan with, peeled mini carrots, and raw sweet onion rings (unbreaded). About halfway through baking add a half cup of read cooking wine.  Serve with either tarragon/garlic red potato wedges, red beans & rice, or yellow rice along with sliced cooked buttered beets and a good gamay beaujolais. Top with Frank's or Crystal hot sauce to taste.

    You can always substitute La rata for squirrel properly easier to get too in most places.  

    No. Just oh hell no. I've eaten a lot of things in my life but no.

    Got to go with Kenshaw011267 on this!!!  I tried substituting pigeon for quail *once* in a recipe - man, but that was *NASTY*!!  I have heard rat (with maybe the exception of wood rats - i.e. ones living nowhere near man) is the same - heavy, greasy and strong taste with a disturbing aftertaste (which describes the pigeon perfectly).

    Squab is good. I certainly hope you didn't just catch some random pigeon.

    It was several pigeons actually - shot with my pellet rifle at the lumber yard my Grandfather worked at (they were damaging the stock - pooping all over everything).  Heh, I even got *paid* (not much.. I think a quarter each) to hunt them! 

    I still hunted them a while after the recipie fiasco, but as I had been raised to only kill what I was going to eat; I soon stopped - just bothered me.

    Pigeons who live in urban/suburban areas are foul beasts. You should never eat one. 

    Squabs meant for consumption are farm raised.

     

    I just noticed. My keyboard has no cent symble.

    That makes no cents!

    Bad-dum-Ching!…

    Get it... sense... cents...
    no?
     

    Great puns are never appreciated.

    A quick note to say I finally got the information I was looking for.  Decided to do what I should have in the first place I suppose; I simply wrote Alessandro directly.  Got his reply in less than an hour.

    So, y'all continue exchanging recipies if you want...
