- Coon n' taters! Racoons are native to the Americas with their habitat ranging from Canada down through Central America. Those living in the countryside and the south view racoons as both an annoyance and a delicacy. Have you ever tried it? Let me know in the comments.

Carrots running for their lives at 2:00
Roast Racoon (don't knock it till you try it)
1 racoon, cleaned and cut into quarters. Be sure to remove the gland from beneath the legs before cooking
1 large onion
2 carrots
2 cups of beef broth (this can be subbed with vegetable broth)
1 teaspoon of thyme
1 teaspoon of rosemary
Salt & pepper, to taste
Water, for boiling
Carefully cut and remove as much of the fat from the racoon as possible. It's perfectly realistic and ok to not remove all of it, just try to remove the most that you can. As is the case with most wild game, the gameness is in the fat. Submerge the racoon in water in a deep pot, cover and simmer for 40 minutes. This is a parboil. Drain out the water and discard. Now over the parboiled meat toss in cut onion, carrots, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper & broth. Cover and simmer for 2.5 hours at 300 degrees. When done shred the meat from the bones.
Mashed Potatoes. This is my go to recipe. It's simple and cheap compared to other mashed potato recipes. Give it a try 😊.
2 pounds of yellow fleshed potatoes
2 tablespoons of butter
0.5 teaspoons of fresh thyme
0.5 teaspoons of fresh rosemary
Salt & pepper to taste
Water, for boiling
Mashed potatoes taste great when prepared with either peeled or unpeeled potatoes. It's entirely up to you what you'd rather use. Submerge peeled or unpeeled potatoes in a pot filled with enough water to cover them. Boil till they are soft enough for a fork to easily pass through them. This can take anywhere from 20-30 minutes. Remove from the water and mash till very smooth in a bowl with butter, thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper.
You do amazing 👍
If you didn't already know, there's a simple chef trick for the carrots which is to simply slice off a thin slice lengthwise. This allows the carrot to lay flat while slicing or chopping. Prevents them from trying to escape or accidentally causing a injury.
sorry, excuse non native speaker but ehat does the word gameness mean in this context?
Need a Squirrel video next!!!!!!
Game is a word for all wild animals:Deers,boars,ducks etc. So gameness is as like as wilderness @@RomanBaranovic
@RomanBaranovic it refers to the more intense natural flavor of the meat & fat.
From the time of the depression and during WW2 and the 1940s and 1950s after when there was still a lot of real shortages and rationing, nearly every wild animal was taken for food. There were some who even collected freshly killed road kill and made stews with them. In our area you didn't see deer, racoons, skunks, squirrels, and-so-forth even on the roads until the early 1960s. Now they are everywhere including our back yard. People got permission from my Mother back then to hunt for nuts, mushrooms, dandelions, berries, and whatever else they could make into something edible and they could find in our woods. We also found the woods to be a wonderful larder at times.
My grandparents told me stories as well as the hills full of game, during those times the wildlife was wiped out.
Justine makes cooking like this look easy. I think generations from 50 yrs and younger down to teens should learn to cook like this. Let the meat hang for a period of time to loose the gamey taste then cook it up in different recipes.
I love Justine's videos. Very inspiring and helpful. Ron does an awesome job of giving feed back of the flavor and more, love their chat sessions.
@@maryjosmith3597 I'm 72 years old have hunted all my life. I know when an animal is good (fresh) road kill and when it's not. I have eaten scores of roadkill deer!
I remember my maternal grandfather, a city boy, during those Depression times, and WWII, trapping and hunting wild game, even feral cats and dogs and any loose chickens. It was a real hardship to feed his growing family. Until the war was over, any meat he sold, it has to have a tail intact or a foot intact so the buyers know what they are getting a rabbit, instead of a cat, for dinner. My paternal grandfather, farmer boy, his parents would go out and butcher a horse, either an old one, crippled or a very young colt which feed the family and their family dog for a week or so. Summer was the time of plentiful as the family was expected to help out with gardening and raising horses and livestock they can find at a sale barn.
I need to find out where Justine and Ron get their cooking grates. Those would come in handy when cooking outside. I got my huge lodge dutch oven to bake in around open fire.
Didn’t they call Armadillos Hoover Rooters because people had to eat them when he promised a chicken in everyone’s pot?
This is both a fascinating and sobering reminder that I'm very privileged to enjoy even the relatively humble diet I have. For hundreds of years, proteins like squirrel and raccoon have fed families, through good times and bad. Thank you for this window into that long-standing cooking tradition
I know if I was hungry, I'd eat it happily. Watching with food aversion and morning sickness... was an experience. 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
lol your comment had me chocking on my cheerios! 😂
same, minus the morning sickness...now watching this made me feel like morning sickness...lol BUt loved watching the video..its very interesting. This actually looks like stewed beef like in brunswick stew.
This is the art of true peaceful living..no materialistic competition like brand names,cars, phones..just existing I'm the world and being grateful for it.
I'm so glad to see someone show that a lot of wild game was consumed.
My family made raccoon barbecue just like pork barbecue. Squirrel, rabbit and ground hog were family favorites. Thank you so much.
Oh, my !! Brings back some wonderful memories of spending time with my great grandmother Melissa and grandma Hilda! We'd cook just about anything: raccoon, squirrels, possum, rabbit, wild doves and quail, even the occasional rattle snake! I didn't care for possum unless we made it into jerky; too gamey and greasy. 😂
That first shot of Mish Mish looked like a bear standing next to you. Lol
I had a hard time getting over the racoon but I'm not a the cabin in the 18th to 19th century. It does look like a modern pot roast. Thanks, Justine and we will catch your Chew and Chat in the morning. Be blessed! xoxo
@@Dolcevita_bakesdude. A wild animal dying for food is Sooooo much more humane than industrial farmed chicken or beef. I think you're speaking from emotion with no rationale. Shame on you for valuing a wild animal more than an innocent mistreated poorly farmed one like the kind found in our grocery stores.
@LaDolcevita37 and I assume that your vegan is something with your mock meat comment.... but that in very many ways is not good for our planet or animals. So please, climb down from your high horse. No one is here for it.
@@Dolcevita_bakesun boeuf ou un poulet merite tout autant de vivre qu un raton laveur. Si tu as ce genre de discours j espere que tu ne manges pas de viande du tout
@@kimberc813100% yes!
@@Dolcevita_bakeswhat’s a bleeding head like you doing in a historically literate place like this? Don’t you have some PETA protest to be wasting your time at?
I'm a bit queasy right now.... but truth be told,, you're an amazing cook.😉
My Grandmother in law (born and lived for years in a log cabin) introduced me to racoon when I and my new wife moved in 1981 to where she grew up (Really- the area is named Possum Kingdom Arkansas!) She cooked it with sweet potatoes. I think it pretty good!
Long ago, my 5th grade teacher told us about how her husband had at one time ran a bread route at Possum Kingdom! She told about one man who would be away working, and had instructed him to go in the house and leave the bread on the table. He would leave money on the table to pay for it.
Доброй ночи,А это что за звёрёк?@@debluetailfly
Mish Mish is too much cuteness ! He should be modeling for magazines.
Maybe if I was starving I would eat racoon. Justine can cook anything and make it look good❤
Hello Justine 👋👋. Happy 2024! I have never had raccoon, but you made that meal look very delicious! Excellent skills, my friend! 😊👌
A beautiful house in the heart of nature, delicious and organic food, the sound of firewood burning and giving heat, all of them were wonderful and enjoyable for me. Thank you for sharing this great video.
🥰🥰😍👍
I really love that setup you all have. I'd love to live in the woods like that, plumb away from society. Keep up these great videos.
I love the channel. Though I may not have to make these recipes, being the prep type, its absolutely good to know whats tasty and available.
Your channel is so much fun. Thank you for sharing! 😊
I don't get why people are weirded out by something like raccoon when eating any form of crustacean or squid is arguably stranger.
I would rather eat some Crabs than a raccoon
Coons good. I think today more than anything there trash pandas no one wants them because the eat garbage.
Out in tge Country were there more naturally no so much of a problem.
I don't want to eat possum. I saw to many living in dead cows or horses. Thats why the old people would clean them out when they could by feeding them corn for a few weeks before they would eat them. If they had time to.
Because it's biblically unclean.
Because crustaceans don't have cute you tube videos 😂
God bless everyone
I have lived in the country all my life in the Appalachian mountains of Kentucky. I never developed a taste for raccoon. It was my Uncles favorite dish.
I’d love to learn to cook more wild game honestly. Just another resource to have and to know.
I happened to stumble upon this video by accident and am so glad I did. Thoroughly enjoyed it and am now hooked. I can't stop watching your videos. I appreciate both you and your fiancé tremendously. Congratulations on your engagement and new upcoming home. I am binging your videos with my husband to get caught up. Happy cooking and chatting. 😊❤
Wow, Justine! I have to give you the utmost respect for this one! I don't know if I could make it or eat eat it. It made a beautiful video and meal, though! It definitely looked tasty. Great job, as always! 💜
Thank you for sharing how to prepare raccoon.
Some real rustic cooking this week. We going to see some more game meats,I know they ate some animals we don't consume in modern society. My grandparents ate groundhog from time to time and many squirrels and rabbits. Most of the time the meat was cut in pieces and fried in lard with biscuits and gravy.😊 Bon appetit.
Now here's a meal you don't get at McDonald's 😳😂
I’m so glad I came across your channel. As I was headed to the dr the other day I saw an older man cleaning a raccoon. I was so intrigued. I was tell my dr about what I saw and he said yes raccoon is delicious. Now I have to try it. Thanks for sharing.
1:30 “and then set to medium high heat”😂😂
Wow! Who knew? (at least these days) Thank you! Very interesting.
Tried it once and that has done me for the last 50 years
Been there done that live in south Louisiana it’s still a staple with the real old folks ❤
Well, I've never eaten raccoon, but that looked like pot roast to me ! You said it was delicious and it certainly looked it ! ❤
Very cool, very interesting. I never would have considered raccoon. Looks amazing, great job!
My granny was from Floyd County KY and she had live thru the depression. She raised 9 kids alone after my grandfather died of a massive heart attack brought on by black lung disease. Racoon, possum, groundhog, squirrel, and anything else she could cook to feed her children. If you walked into her house and there was a pot on the stove with potatoes or sweet potatoes in it, u had to ask what was in it. As a very young boy, I tried raccoon, possum, nutrea, rabbit, squirrels but no groundhog.
I've never tasted roasted Trash Panda but I would after seeing your video. That looks down right mouthwatering!
Trash Panda. I love that one. 😂
I love this so much!
My family ate lots of wild game when i was young! Rabbit, squirrel, dove, deer and raccoon were very popular!! I loved it!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤. Great video
I love your channels! The food you cook looks delicious. I would love to know where to get a rectangular wooden bowl like you used to put your carrots in. I love that bowl!! Thank you!!
Okay, I always enjoy what you cook. However, before I even finish this one, or watch your review on the other channel. Unless there is another depression or nuclear war, I’m drawing the line on raccoon. Still, I love your channel though!
Excellent interesting video, i'm fascinated by raccoons and I never thought of Consuming a raccoon. I imagine it in the same realm as when people say Cook a possum but that's probably good too. I drained water from foods onto the same area for awhile and in the summer it created quite a problem with flies
What a beautiful couldron! Absolutely lovely
I've never tasted raccoon meat. (it would be hard for me to cook & eat one because I have pet raccoons) Thanks Justine.
I feed one who comes to my yard. So sad 😭
WOW, who knew????? Happy New Year guys & many blessings.
You 2 are really awesome thank you !!!
Looks absolutely delicious! I have never tried it, but I sure would after watching this!
OMG. You ate Ranger Rick 😮
Glad 😊 I found your channel and subscribed, great 📷 vidoes and 🎉Happy 🎊 New Year 2024.
This is good knowledge to have. If the poop hits the fan, we are overrun with raccoons where we live. I'll now know to boil off the fat! 🦝
The only raccoons I ever see are the flat ones on PA 51, but they don't look very appetizing. I don't know anybody that eats or hunts them either but I would try it if offered.
That looks amazing! I would try it.
It’s still so fun watching you! 🎉
I love the sound of a woman cooking. I could curl up in the corner of a kitchen and be sawing logs in under minute.
Looks really good, thank you.
Wow, 😮 thanks for sharing
Good job i love the recipe with wild game more of those
"Best to avoid the city ones" 😂
because they are eating fentanyl and week old McDonald's.
Well it looks absolutely delicious ❤
Outstanding
I am in Australia and we do not have Racoons. I could not eat them. I watch another channel who feed Raccoons and they are just so cute.
When you first said raccoon , oh my gosh ,I'm thinking of the raccoons that eat garbage. Sounds like they eat pretty good in the wild.
Candid sweet potatoes with raccoon is MAGICAL!!!!!!!!!
Looks delicious 😋!
Wild game pot roast and potatoes sounds delicious
That looks delicious! I would try it. I've had bison, rattlesnake, alligator, elk, etc. I may have to make racoon next on my list.
Happy New Year! That looks so good!
Greetings from Montana 😊👋 WOW!! This is a first for me! I have to say….it looks delicious 😋 I’m headed to the chew and chat to get the scoop! Have a blessed and beautiful week ❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸
This is absolutely amazing I love your cooking videos so much its peaceful brilliant and educational not to mention I love your skits❤❤❤ please keep up the great work bless you
I am so very sorry to say yuk!!!! As a child, my dad went hunting and got raccoon. Everybody was so excited UNTIL THE COOKING STARTED, THE SMELL WAS TERRIBLE AND CLEARED OUT THE 3 STORY HOUSE INCLUDING MY DAD. LOL.😅😂 mom continued to cook it, but the smell never went away. Needless to say, nobody ate raccoon than night or any night after.
Thank you for sharing your skills and ideas with your utube fans
Thank you for sharing the recipe
Great job the food looks amazing
I was surprised you drained it so close to the cabin
It's amazing to see that people like this still exist.
I would definitely try that it looks delicious ❤
Looks real tasty Justine!
Varmit stew, yum, nice touch with the racoon shawl.
superb.
My grandfather said sometimes food was so scarce that his friends grandfather in the 1800s had to cook chipmunks even. Some even resorted to mice.
If you're going to do varmints, how about possum or squirrel for your vittles.
Вы потрясающие, так рада Вашему новому видео ❤. Счастливого Нового года 💖🎉🎄🎉💖
The rosted racoon looks tasty! I would have to try it! I never have eaten mushroom ketchup before. I have eaten boil racoon I am a hunter and a reactanitor.David Back.
Mish mish is so adorable and great video ☺️
I have a masher very similar to that. Found it in an antique store.
Raccoons are protected furbearers in Missouri, with seasons established for hunting and trapping.
Just discovered your channel. Thank you.
That looks soooooo good, I would definitely try that if you offered it to me. Never had Raccoon, but would try it.
💝💗💖 Does look very good. Thank you! ❇❇❇
I grew up eating wild meat. Ive never tried raccoon though! It looks really good!
I love this channel!!! I report every person who steals your content! You work super hard and deserve all the views!
Hahahaha ... well done!
a local tavern used to have a wild game night and racoon was served along with lots of different other game. It was so good !!😋yum
Loving the 🐓 crows
My mother was from rural east Texas and racoon, opossum and squirrel were things my grandmother served up to her and her siblings in the late 40s to early 50s. I have to admit that racoon looks like some tasty shredded beef with carrots and taters
I have had Bear, Rabbit , Ostrich , Turtle, snake , and other forest dwellers, but never Raccoon. Looks like I will have to try it .
I have family in KY that still hunt, cook and eat raccoons.
I love this video but that bitty bowl for mashing potatoes was talent 😂
Love you guys we watch and like and cook alot too❤
I remember my dad made us rabbit in the 80s he told us it was chicken . I lived in Maine for 8 years and I tried moose and had deer meat many times .
Racoon as well as beaver are really good. In the 1960s supper clubs had a wild game night in which everyone brought wild game from the freezer to be cooked. You hag a chance to try things not available in the Mid West. The highest percentage was that wich came locally. The same as what everyone had at home, but it gave a chance for the locals to hang out together and for the city and town people to have wild game. The rural people were glad to eat the elk, moose big horn and believe or not venison. You had to go to northern Minnesota, northern Wisconsin or the UP of Michegan to get deer in the 1950s and 1960s. They made a come back in the 1980s.
Excelentes videos ❤
