French Fried Skunk

Find wild game recipes to make on the campfire.

Ingredients:

  • 2 skunks, skinned and cleaned
  • water, to cover
  • 2 cup bear fat or lard
  • 2 egg yolks, beaten
  • 3 cup milk or cream
  • 1 ½ cup flour
  • 2 tbs. baking powder
  • salt and pepper

Equipment:

  • large pot
  • deep fryer, or skillet with oil

Preparation:

Clean and wash the skunks, making sure the scent glands are removed. Cut up into small bite size pieces. Place in a large pot. Cover with cold water and heat at high heat until boiling. Lower the heat and simmer until the meat is tender, about 40 minutes. Remove all the scum that rises to the top.

Make a batter by mixing together the egg yolks, milk, flour, salt and pepper, and baking powder. Mix well, until the batter is like cake batter. Heat the bear fat or lard in a deep fryer to about 360 degrees. If you don’t have a deep fryer, take a large skillet and add generous amounts of oil to the bottom. Dip the pieces of skunk in the batter and then fry until golden brown. Drain excess oil and serve. Not for everyone, but good.

 

 

Fried Rabbit or Squirrel

Wild Game Recipes

Ingredients:

  • 1 rabbit or squirrel
  • butter, melted
  • corn flakes, crushed
  • extra virgin olive oil

Equipment:

  • knife
  • cast-iron skillet

Preparation:

Clean and wash the rabbit or squirrel. Remove the legs and split the body down the back through the breast. Cut each half in two, crosswise. Dip meat in melted butter. Roll the meat in the crushed corn flakes, coating all around. Brown the meat in hot oil on each side. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about an hour. Note: Some people like to soak the meat in salted water for a few hours before cooking. If so, cover the body with water in a pot and add 3 tbs. salt. Then drain, rinse and pat dry before cooking. This is a good idea, especially if the animal appears to be old.
