I like to take my squirrels quarter them, then flour,salt and pepper them. Fry in a skillet for about 1 1/2 minutes on each side, the remove for grease. add flour and water to grease to make a thick gravy. once you have a good thick gravy with the lumps worked out, put gravy and squirell in a pot of water and cook at simmer until the meat starts to fall of the bone. Cook a pot of rice, and serve gravy over rice and you got a meal fit for a king. lol also good with rabbit mixed in with the squirrel.

I, being a generally lazy cook, boil them until falling apart, tear the meat off the bones in little pieces and them up a batch of the store bought red beans and rice and add the squirrel meat to it. Works equally well with a muskrat and lets one small animal feed a whole meal or even 2 at my house.

Use hot water to prevent your gravy from becoming lumpy.

Squirrel Dumplings are great. When I was growing up we had them a lot during season. I think you make them just like chicken dumplings. Daddy always made us dress the head out because he liked the brains.(way too much trouble) We had the young ones fried with bisquits and gravy on Sunday morning. Fine foods from the past.

The presure cooker is the best thing that has ever happened to squirrels and snowshoe hares. I use it all the time. You can make dumplings in the same pan after you take the lid off if you like.

boil squirrel until meat starts to fall off the bone or until done. take meat off of the bone, place meat in a blender and chop until it looks like the meat on a pulled pork sandwich then put a little water in fry pan with your favorite bbq sauce and meat, boil down to your liking put on bun and your done. i do rabbits the same way also
