doublegunshop.com - home Forums General Discussion DoubleGun BBS @ doublegunshop.com The red was so ruddy!

It was fine as any rooster can be, and as plump as any mallard.
Fatten by recent gut piles, I'm sure, sweeten by grasshoppers for it's last meal.
Piff, went my Kimber, it was shot right thru the eye.
The black guard(crow) fell not 20 yards from my hide.
So you can see, the second day of deer season - I got my game.
No check-in station, no tag for the leg, I just put it in a McDonald's bag and hurried on home.
So then.
Visions of root cellar veggies, leeks, onions, celery, potatoes and carrots raced thru my head.
It'll make a good hearty stew to feed-on all week long.
...and next week, it starts all over again.

So you High Toned folks eat possum, also ? I ain't never seen a red one thought.

If you slewit - stewit!
Ruddy to it's meat's color.

I have a receipe that cooks the criminal with sourkraut, potatoes on the side. The meat looks for all the world like goose, so, ruddy it is. Never had the, uh, fortitude, if you will, to give it a try. Shall I pass it a long, Thorny?
Best,
Ted

You'd never go hungry - there are enough of them to go around.
Why we could feed the world a hot nutritious meal, while saving the tax payer's money on housing the jailbirds.
Ted you are onto something.
I'm hungry, lets eat!

CROW CASSEROLE
6 crow breasts
1 quart sauerkraut
6 strips bacon 1/3 cup chopped onion

Skillet brown crow breasts, then place them on a 1 1/2 inch layer of kraut in the bottom of a casserole. Cover each breast with a strip of bacon, and sprinkle onions over them. Cover the breasts with the rest of the sauerkraut and pour juice (canned kraut must be OK to use) from the kraut into the casserole. Bake two hours at 350, serve with boiled potatoes.

From the Field and Stream guide to Sportsman's Cooking, George Laycock, 1967 edition. I've not tried it, and suspect if I did, I'd be tempeted to brown the breasts OUTDOORS, on my little Coleman stove that I use to fry fish.


You go first, Thorny....
Best,
Ted

Local Kroger sells Buffalo burgers and rabbit meat, I will pass on your recipe! I used to set up near old village dump, man those barrels could get quite hot at times.

Put all the fixins in a crockpot, and leave the house for the day.
When you get home, open the windows first, to air out the place, then chow down.
Eat with a spoon, to get all of the (how do the Frenchmen say)juices?
...and Ted, you go first - its only right!

Has anyone here ever eaten Starling Pot Pie?

I am the caretaker (for the current generation) of my Grandfather's LC Smith 20 gauge. The first owner of the gun was Papa's brother-in-law. That man's son recently told me he remembers (when he was 8 or 9) his father used it to shoot at a flock of starlings in a tree in the back yard, and "killed 20 or 30 with one shot" (so the story goes). The boy picked them up by the bucketfull, and his mother made a pie out of them.

The man earned a decent living, but he had a very large family, so they probably couldn't afford to waste any meat.

Lowell...have you been @ the old "Steaming Bishop" again );
Good for ye!
