When I was a kid I had a cat that would go hunting with me in the woods by our house every weekend and I would shoot birds for the cat and squirrels for me to BBQ on the porch , good times. That was 30 years ago.
I thought I had the only hunting cat as a youngin! I had a cat named Gen James Longstreet AKA ol' Pete. He would go rabbit hunting with me. He'd flush them and run back to my while I shot them. Good times. Good cat!
I did something similar but with a beagle and for rabbits and sqirrls
He would get the front legs off a sqirrl or 2 and I would eat the rest
Same I had a cat name foxy that hunt birds and squirrels she even get lizards sometimes
I love how he is whispering like he’s in the woods and he just shot a 12 pointer lol
He'll need to get a good squirrel tracking dog to recover them ~8^)
Lol, it becomes a habit
I was thinking the same thing 😂😂
They have good ears!!
Well you got to be lucky to get a 12 point
Pro tip that has always worked for me no matter what I’m cleaning with fur, get it wet or damp. It helps the hair not get all over the place.
I always soak my squirrels before I skin them.
Yes ma’m
Hmmm, That's a good idea I should try that next time
My Grandmother was an expert squirrel cook. Her rules 1. Don’t cook an old tough red squirrel- Gray squirrels only. 2. Pressure cook a bit before rolling in flour, meal coating will tenderize. Yours looked delicious.
Earlier this animal was tearing up my feeder.
Now it will tear up my insides😂
I have a squirrel problem in my new home. Decided I needed to take action, embrace my Appalachian ancestry, and eat my problem. Somehow ended up on this video. I love this video. I love this family. I wish they were my neighbors. Subscribed.
Love it, she says, "get 'em"
Then says, "its so sad, cover your eyes!"
Haha!
Justin, pressure cook your squirrels for 15 - 20 minutes and then season and coat them as you like, and deep fry them if possible , much better than pan frying.
Makes them not so though right?
We ate them fried when I was a kid. I don't remember them being tough, but pressure cooking would be a good idea. We also soaked them in salt water overnight. I think that helped tenderize them.
I never thought of eating a squirrel my whole life or thought anyone has even thought of it i dunno I wouldn't eat a rabbit mouse or rat either.
Looked like Kentucky Fried Squirrel at the end 🍗 NOM!
Definitely the best way todo it. I make squirrels and dumplings. It’s bomb
I got bit by a squirrel hiking the grand canyon. thank you for returning the favor.
Elsey6 returning the favor with large amounts of flavor
...... In the words of Bill burr "were you f***ing with it?"
G
Your the only person in the history of mankind to be injured in the grand canyon...............by a squirrel !
Adam Smith You would be suprised by how many people get bit by squirrels in the grand canyon. They have signs all over the bottom saying don’t feed the squirrels
Love the squirrel stone mount pose!!! LOL
Baby squirrels :Looks like moms not coming home tonight 😢😢😢
You know you have a good wife when she encourages you to kill something
Great video. I've eaten hundreds of squirrels and It's fairly easy to get them nice and tender. The crock pot is the easiest way. Soaking them in salt water for at least 30 minutes right after cleaning is a must. It gets the game flavor out of the meat. I recommend sweet and sour squirrel. My kids can't tell the difference in it and chicken. It pretty much shreds like pulled pork. Another quick and easy way to get tender squirrel is to season it however you like, but put a little corn starch in with it. Then bake them at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or so and it's almost like they're fried. Keep up the good work and definitely keep up the airgunning. If you have any airgun questions, feel free to ask. I only use airguns on my channel.
LFG: “we got a squirrel”
OSG: “ get emmm”
🤦🏽♂️😂💀
I always knew I would meet my kindred in a hunting video😂
Honestly I watch your video cause of your wife. She chill and supportive. She inspire me to look for a sport outdoor woman.
Me before watching the vid: IS HE GONNA ACTUALLY EAT THE SQUIRREL
Me after watching the vid: MOM!!, CAN YOU COOK A SQUIRELL
SL3DG3 and you said "the" instead of "then". Lucky for me and probably Vlad GoodGuy is we came here to watch a squirrel kill and cook, not take grammar lessons. 👍
Y'alls learn to git em an gut skin cook thar badboy over a fire
Over a far
Thank you for being open minded
@@MavrikUSMC good eating
6:56 that squirrel totally looks pissed off lol
This was more tactical then my mission in Iraq
I ain't go that far son
Man, start boiling them first. It will be ten times better. Nice video.
Will boiling them soften the meat?
Sandy Mitchell gotta get them squirrels
Thank you for serving our country
Thank you for making this video. After I left my birth country forty years ago, I never got a chance to eat squirrels. Few people in North America knew squirrel is good to eat until I watched your video today. At home, we used to eat the skin too.
When he held it up and it looked like he was taking off its sweater 😂 😆 🤣
All the other youtube squirrel chefs say you gotta age it in the freezer for a few days. It takes the toughness out. But the saltwater bath is rarely mentioned. Combine the 2 and you probably have a winning combination
I always boiled the squirll before frying, works great!
chad adams have to agree as far as I know when I tried parboiled stuff it was dry
Yall dont boil till fully cooked, then fry of coarse itll be tough! You do it so the meat tenderizes then finish with frying, figured that was common sense though 😂😂😂
Nice fox squirrel, nice shot. I just throw them in the slow cooker with either a can of cream of mushroom soup or cream of celery soup. A few hours later, falling off the bone and tastey. Super easy. I put the squirrels in a bucket of warm water before skinning, keeps the fur from flying and sticking to meat.
"oh man i missed" is me every time i challenge a wasp
Love the video, when I was a kid we cooked it the same way except after it was fried we used the crisps and a bit of the oil left and used some four and milk to make a gravy then put the squirrel back in and let it cook longer to soften the meat back up.
I'm going to work for a house like that. It is so beautiful
I hope you reach your goal.
Have you ever lived near water before? The amount of wild animals at night is crazy.
How did it went?
you know what I consider to be a risky move but is usually pretty effective? Swinging at the wasp nest with a hat...oh I missed, oh man I missed again.
Some of the best ways you can probably cook a squirrel would be to First boiling it with milk and then put your buttermilk and your flour and fry it that way it will be more tender
LMAO!!! You are awesome! So funny with your commentary.
Lfg does need a dog! And make him into the ultimate outdoors companion
Dogs are trash
Poop Poop You’re trash
"Ive got a buttermilk recipe I'm going to put this sucker in..." Simply outstanding.
Steve rinella cook book for squirrel hot wings
Terrible time to be taking a drink-“it was like a piece of rubber, a greasy piece of rubber, with hair on it”. Hilarious!!!
Dude, with squirrel you have to cook it slow. That is a basic understanding. Hit it with a torch to burn the hairs off and pressure cook it with some veg... Anything slow, like make a soup.
Yeah that should be obvious....I don't understand why he doesn't slow cook it for hours I bet the meat falls right off.
I brine mine overnight in salt water if I'm grilling or frying. But my favorite way is making squirrel and dumplings in the crock pot. But definitely brine it if youre cooking fast
Finaly some boys with some sense. Yeah i like to bake em in a crockpot with lots of garlic and just enough water to cover em. Cook for 2 to 3 hours (depending on how old thr squirrel is) and eat just like dark meat chicken.
Dont forget beef stew mix for exstra flavor.
@mas360 Yeah. I set the squirrel underneith the pork so it catches thd dripings and let them smoke. After a couple of hours the not only taste amazing but are super tender. We used ribs when cooking em.
My dad would boil the meat before frying. Makes the meat more tender! Then batter/coat before frying! Always pure butter fry!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Nobody:
Literally not a single soul:
LFG around chickens: "I am aware of the effect I have of women"
6:55 squirrel looking like “ bruh.....they got me”
Hey man, I recommend wetting the squirrel first. It helps with hair control.
You mean soaking it in hot water?
Beautiful home, great family, good eating, don't let too many of us city dwellers see this, we might get jealous. I really appreciate the completeness of this. You sure get a thumbs up.😀
as a city dweller myself. Don't we have squirrels everywhere too?
Squirrel skinning 101
1rst u pull up the shirt then you pull down the pants🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have cleaned a lot of squirrels the one main thing you can do to keep hair off is to dump your squirrels into a bucket of water then clean them.
I have found a made great recipe for squirrel. Lightly season with salt and pepper, brown on a grill, put in a cast iron dutch oven, add some sliced smoked sausage, some Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce and simmer until fall off the bone tender. Now that is some good eats...
Lmao when he missed the wasp I went full pucker😂😂😂
You’ve got a beautiful family and I really enjoy your videos.
I'd eat that in a minute!!! And have never had it!! Great job
Do this pose at 6:58... guaranteed way to get the old lady to bring cookies and milk when your watching Netflix. You're welcome.
Try boiling the squirrel to tenderize it before battering and frying it. Squirrel also makes great with dumplings and in gumbo.
@Joe Regel.....that's what I do is boil the Squirrel first until tender then dip in milk and egg or buttermilk then coat with seasoned flour then fry in a cast iron skillet, I use my laser temperature reader to judge my oil temperature to around 350 F
Hey what you need to do to keep the squirrel from being tough is put it in salt water over night which you did for a few hours but a pressure cooker really does the trick
Come on mullet man took a black buck the other day with his Air Force
Matt Ramirez a single young male at that partner
Pro tip: head shots only... save those front legs for the grill/frier. Also soak the squirrel in water and the hair will stick to itself.
Next time for skinning do the same thing with the tail but put it on the ground and step on the tail and pull the feet. Same concept just more leverage and easier .
Don't know why your video was suggested, but I'm glad it was. Subscribed!
This guy reminds me of Kraglin from Guardians of the Galaxy 2
I’m liking this video just based on the title. Don’t let me down!
Looked like a mom squirrel getting nutrients for nursing her young
Not anymore.
OfficialCrazyDonut it needed to die.
Yeah a whole family starved and died cuz of that shot
@@michaelhawk1826 cry me a river.. lol that squirrel was a PEST! If you owned land, home and had a wife and baby to protect would you just let critters run wild over all of them? Or would you let them ruin everything you worked your entire life for because you feel bad for a rodent? No, you do what needs to be done and get rid of it!
Squirrels, hogs, edible birds...... sounds like a backyard grand slam!! Shoot all of that with the Airforce rifle and you’ll start a trend lol. Btw, blasting wasps with a gust of air (no pellets) from an airgun and you blast the wings off.
Boil the SQUIRREL before cooking it making it so much more tenderer
i just lov ur vids, they feel so natural and awesome
Two words - pressure cooker, then coat and fry. THAT'S how you make a squirrel tender. Crock pot works too as mentioned in other comments.
That was 22 words, sir.
Nice! I just got my hunting license this weekend and will definitely be hunting squirell this weekend to make some back yard buttermilk squirell 🤣💯
You don't need a hunting license for rodents lol
Squirrel too tough to fry. You got to pressure cook them first. Or my favorite bake them in a crock pot with lots of garlic for 3 hours. They fall off the bone then.
New flex squirrel a strong rubberized squirrel
Bullseye good shooting buddy. Hope you and the family are doing well. Love the videos
No way my wife would keep quiet while I used the couch cushions to brace my rifle on the ground. She'd keep talking until the squirrel ran. You are lucky 😉
Save the tails if you ever plan to get into tying flies
Dude awesome idea
Hes going to have Deer hair up the ying yang pretty soon as well!
I will take anyone’s squirrel tails
What are the tails used for
@@dallasx9000 the hair from the tail can be used for flies for trout or even on a treble hook for a nice spinner that cathes bass and crappie.
Dunk squirrel in bucket, keeps hair down. Have extra clean bucket of water to splash hands, keeps hands hair free. Tail method is definitely the best. When you cut through the bone widen the cut back of the legs and jockey back and forth when you pull. To the left and right leg. Just a feel. Squirrels are good eats!
Stab it with a fork a bunch of times before cooking. It’ll be way tender
Nothing more fragrant while it slow cooks in the crock pot on a fall day, then a couple of squirrels harvested from a Hickory Grove. Best ever squirrel for eating!
Headshot the hog with it I've seen people use a .22 nitro express air rifle and the rifle you have is much much stronger use that and nab that hog and eat some ribs
I've seen a hog take a 762x54 to the skull and laugh
Ok Rocky!!! Tell Bullwinkle goodnight!!! Time to go nite nite in the cast iron skillet. I have had my FILL of squirrels 🐿 in my attic!!! Now it’s time to get full off of squirrels 🐿!!!!🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿..CAN YOU SAY DIRT NAP!
Next time try grilling them with seasoning or just salt, they're really good.
Sounds like it would be tough as hell that way.
9929kingfish boil your meat first. Trust me it’s so juicy and soft that way.
Rotisserie or smothered is the way to go with squirrels
I love how he has the air equivalent of a military grade sniper yet I can stick a Walmart BB gun out my window and brain one with an iron sight
Your backsplash will eventually need some SERIOUS SCRUBBING!!
My last squirrel meal was like eating hot wings, tender, and falling off the bone. The only step you left out is to first boil the squirrel meat for at least 45 minutes... then do everything just like you did. The difference is amazing
try holding a wooden spoon in the oil. if it starts bubbling it will be good to start frying. greeting you from germany
Any moisture will bubble
Just a tip on how I cook mine… I boil mine whole after I skin and clean them, then I take all the meat off of the bones, and I fry them in a pan with butter and seasonings
LFG must make bank stacks cash to pay for that supermodel in vids
Crickets
Who hurt you?
That mid section actually IS the prize piece on a squirrel. Just like every other animal
Is your foundation ok? Those cracks next to the garage opening don't look good.
Ya the brick is separating from the framing
Probably no wall ties
He's already mentioned the foundation problems back when they first got this house.
Needs some great stuff foam spray in there
Chickens are omnivores they love meat
@@jerredwayne8401 that would make it worse.... it would push it apart even more.
I have been wandering for a while if people eat Squirrels. Now I know. My ancestors would be proud of how soft I have be come.
Your girl is so dam pretty😍

Back yard Buttermilk Squirrel!!! Heck yeah!!!
Is anyone here from Australia
Jack Allen yea mate
Melbourne u
i’m from perth
MERICA!!!!!
hi i from north borneo Malaysia my daddy everyday cooking squirrel for me. my daddy cook squirrel use ginger,chili and sause.very delicious..
Some folks say to let the squirrel "age" for a few days before cooking
Probably in a salt water brine. That's how most wild game is handled
@@MikeJones-rx5eo vacuum seal it for about a week works also
Let’s get Guga to dry age one
@@marygracekennington9287 read my mind
U deserve a national t.v. show u made my cold flooded morning thanks
Definitely the best of the Googan Squad. Down to earth and entertaining.
For the best buttermilk, buy the buttermilk enzymes from Amazon. Adding vinegar or lemon juice, fresh squeezed even, is not or does not produce buttermilk. People have been saying this and it's wrong. Do yourself a huge favor and research it. Most buttermilk sold in cartons, isn't really the best to use. Lastly, you shouldn't have to buy buttermilk often. Always save about 8 ounces of buttermilk, add that to up to a gallon of whole milk, shake it up well, then just let it sit on your kitchen island or table, at room temperature. The good buttermilk bacteria will convert that whole milk into a rich, thick buttermilk. make sure to check it every once and awhile. Once it thickens up, give it one last shake, take the cap off to smell your wonderful creation. Put and keep in your fridge. I've had buttermilk made from the initial carton I purchased for 10 years before, and it's incredible, let me tell you. I make our kids the moistest, fluffiest, delicious, buttermilk pancakes. So I've been told, I agreed, because I love them, only slathered in whipped butter, and he best maple syrup, from a forest in Connecticut. God bless you and your family.
Can't you just make a metal lid for the feeder
Logan Caskey they would just get it from the hole lmao
Might I suggest that you brown the parts lightly , then put in oven pan with lid and bake them at 325 for 15 minutes . You can even add some new potatoes and baby carrots in the oven pan ...meat should fall off the bones ... Delicious !!
You should by a scope cam
I agree
Buy
Yes 💯 you got it I agree...
Joe dirt I love you very much I live in California and I've never once eaten a squirrel or rabbit. I'm very happy that you found Brandy. You crack me up in your videos brother please keep them up and I love it when your wife is behind you telling what you to do. I'm serious my brother. That is what life is all about sharing with somebody you love. I will tell you one thing.after all the squirrels and rabbits I blew out of their minds. Instead of giving them to the Hawks I think I might take some of your recipes and start eating them. LOL. Safe and well to your family always!! 👍
Yes, time for male dog!
Great video Thank You For Sharing. May Holy GOD Bless You and Your Family.
Anybody think that was stephs arm at 15:51?
For the tail method you did it a little wrong. When you cut through the tail you want to make small slits on the side of it also to gently loosen the skin. Then you step on the tail making sure you're at the base of the bone and then pull up. Doing it this way you jerk his britches off without getting any hair on the meat whatsoever.
If you want some good buttermilk don't buy it from the store. Get some whole milk out of your refrigerator and pour out one or two cups depending on how much meat you need to cover. For every cup of whole milk add one tablespoon of white vinegar and stir it thoroughly. Allow it to sit for about 15 or 20 minutes and boom you have buttermilk.
Time for a new channel. “Yard to plate”
Making TH-cam videos after drinking...the best
Fox squirrel need boiled first...grey ones no boil ..
🐿🐿
OMG! Sooooo True!!
We usually cook squirrel for several hours in the crockpot, then bone it and add noodles. Squirrel and noodles and mashed potatoes is delicious. And cooking it low and slow like that makes it fall off the bone tender. In fact that method works for any tough type or cut of meat. Even an old rooster or laying hen that's getting kinda long in the tooth.
*NO SQUIRRELS WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO*
I still remember the first time I had squirrel. My dad put it in a stew and told me it was venison( he knew I wouldn't eat the cute fluffy "tree bunny"), after I had finished the bowl was when he told me, I was so mad lol... I was also 10 so I got over it and had another bowl, because that stuff is goooood. Also, this was a very good video, I always enjoy when a new one comes out even as a newer subscriber
