Squirrel Recipes

Place squirrels – cut into fore legs, hind legs and back pieces – in an electric pressure cooker.

Douse with Cajun seasoning and add enough water to cover the squirrels.

Cook under pressure for about 15 minutes, depending on the size of the squirrels (fox squirrels generally take longer).

Squirrel should be tender but not falling off the bone.

When done, remove the pieces and allow to cool.

Heat oil in deep fryer to 350 degrees.

Follow instructions on the chicken fry bag, but use beer instead of water.

After squirrel pieces have cooled and firmed up, coat in the wet mix and then shake in the dry mix.

When oil is hot, place squirrel in fryer until a golden crust appears, about 90 seconds.

Remove from oil, place on paper towels to drain excess oil, cool, and serve.
