I practice putting a interested look on my face before I get to the house and have to listen to a long winded story about how the old ladies day at work went. How a 30 second story turns into 60 minutes I have no idea.
Surely you must have something better to eat then those tree rats. Boil up the recoil pad on that scatter gun might be a start.
… that’s funny right there Nor… my poor wife gave up on me listening along time ago lol
… to me cat squirrel is the best tasting meat in the woods.. just not much on them
Insert profound nonsense here

Well it makes here feel good a suppose. Yeezus never ate one of those things always thought of them as target practice. Got ruffled grouse to eat.
I don't do anything on the way home from work, im ready to get to the house and off the road with all the crazy people. Figured the squirrels still had wolves in them right now. I guess you dig those out and use them for fish bait though.
Not my circus, not my clowns.

Yall act like gumbo is some fancy gourmet pot of food that has to be made from only the finest ingredients. I have always figured it was a way to feed a family with what is cheap (rice) and whatever meat one could pick up on the side of the road (even cheaper).
I'd think skinning while they were still warm and a pressure cooker would be the hot set up for squirrel. The way those kids are growing Savell, I'd prolly never turn down meat.

Feel bad for the lil fella. I'll be halfway to Texas on Sunday and feel I should help him out with his gumbo by bringing some swamp donkey hoofs to boil up.

That's a shotgun. Looks like a Mossberg 500. You'll be spitting out #6 shot. Thought you Texans were crack shots with a .22 on squirrel. Right in the eye.
Haha, my cajun grandpa would whoop my butt if I ever killed a squirrel with a head shot from a 22
The brains were a delicacy

There's not many people around here that eat the brains any more. I tried them once , not bad tasting , the texture was strange though. My brothers father in-law loved the brains , we hunted from a boat one day. His girl friend cooked up the squirrel and kept the heads on. Cracked the skull with the back of a spoon. Picked the brain out whole. Haven't tried them since , but did save squirrels with the heads on for one of his daughters.

Are you fellas really that hungry down there to have to eat that stuff? Part coyote possibly?
LOL Your ancestors more than likely ate the same. Survival was the name of the game awhile back. Looking like we may have to get back to those ways of waste not want not.

… so what do y’all do on the way home from work? Lol
Climb the hay mow to catch squab to feed the family. Can't afford Japanese trucks with fancy tires to catch dinner...
Ate a few squabs growing up. Breasts are smaller than a grouse , bigger than a quail , and a least three/four times bigger than a dove. Food was food , and any meat was always welcome on the farm. Actually squabs were/are young pigeons that never left the nest. Was a big market in the 50's and 60's for squab. Same with marsh rabbit , which was just a muskrat under a more palatable name.

WOW Reading some of these posts , makes me think , we as a nation are becoming sissies. Bleeding hearts , and too well off to appreciate what was once food that built our countries.
