The Caribbean is known for its sunny weather, gorgeous beaches, seafood, and tropical fruits, among other things. But unique and exotic wild meats are also common throughout the islands, and that’s what we’re exploring today! Let’s go try some wild meat in Grenada!
🇹🇹 Trinidad & Tobago Travel Series: • Eating TRINIDADIAN CHI...
MORNE GAZO: In this village in southern Grenada, a local cook prepared some manicou, or opossum, along with a bake. It was sweet, savory, and rich, and the bake was perfect for soaking up the gravy. It reminded me of Guyanese pepperpot and is my favorite dish from the island!
FRESH LOBSTER GRILL Y BAR: Here, I enjoyed some phenomenal grilled lobster with garlic butter, Creole lambie (conch), garlic bread, and mashed yams. The lambie was similar to Chinese dishes I’d had, and the lobster was tender, flavorful, and succulent!

Big up Grenada from Jamaica.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Am from Grenada, this is a common thing to eat. Nothing fancy about it. Actually its kinda gross, never liked it.😂😂
Visited a friend in Maryland he's from Grenada. There was a smell in the house all day and I was so embarrassed to ask him😅 he had went to work and left us there so when he got home LOL Dwayne I don't mean to be rude but there's a smell in your house. He just laughed and said, oh you smell the Manicou 😂
🤣🤣🤣❤️
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😅😅😅😅😅
😂😅😂😂😂😅😂😅😂
It has a very specific smell....... can't mistake it for anything else!!! phoo phoo
@@maureenr1897 🤣😂🤣
My mum is Guyanese and my dad Grenadian and, I love love love LOVE oil down, pepper pot, lambie waters, black pudding, crayfish, roti, souse, Oh and they have one called manish waters! super nice! made with goat head.
but manicou!!! I feel like it's an acquired taste and I never acquired the taste for that. I can't stand manicou at all lol.
I got a not so funny story about hunting manicou. Myself and a few local boys went hunting, I had my pet dog(Tramp) with me, I was so proud of him lol. As soon as we got the manicou out of the tree Tramp was on it. So we got it back to yard and I hit it real hard on the head, then we tied it up and put it over a fire to burn off the fur and it was still alive 😢 I felt so bad lol I think that scared me for life. Suffice to say that was my first and last time hunting manicou...
I don’t think my stomach can handle that though 😂😂😂😂
Man now I am too tempted to visit Grenada to eat manicou, bake and fresh lobster; I am truly ready.
What is wrong with local seasoning, like thyme seasoning pepper ect all this package stuff!
I pass 🤦😬🥴
Is there a McDonalds near by?? 😂🤣I know it’s their culture but I just can’t! 🤣
Funny I have only eaten McDonald’s three times in 30 years 😅 only for videos
I don't know about McDonalds but there are plenty of KFCs!
David that my friend right there am from Grenada to one of your subscriber living in Philadelphia
Nope nope nope going Greneda but will give that a miss
Davids been high the whole time in Grenada lol 😂😂😂
watching this all i hear is MahJah Hype skit in my head dwl 🤣🤣😂😂
I couldn't Possumbly be able to eat that.
You have won the dad joke award today sir. Respect. 🤣🔥
@@Davidsbeenhere appreciate you and everything you bring to TH-cam brother! 🫶
Ricksta: nice play on words.🇹🇹🇨🇦
@@JudyT868 ☺️🫶
So happy you are experiencing my culture, I need this guy number for when I visit Grenada, cause it just not the same here in nyc.
That’s my dad lol
Great. His presentation was nice. The name of the bar is " The Gazo"
Hey David. Happy Saturday. An opossum? 🫤. You are daring and willing I must say. Not to fatty. He is seasoning well. My mother had a pressurized cooker just like that. I’ll taste what’s under the counter 🥃😂. The bread and meal looks amazing. And that’s exactly what I’d eat; bread 🍞 with the gravy/sauce or with rice. You guys tore that up cuz the bread is gone too. Hats off to the hunter and chef. Next you visit the fishermen for 🦞🧈🧄🥖. The mashed yam 🍠 is different. The creole conch looks delish 😋. 2 amazing meals from 2 💪 🏋️♀️ chefs. Thanks for sharing and see you tomorrow.
Eating that no way bro.
So much good foods...manicou...never eaten it but the way the chef preppedit with all the seasonings esp the peppers I'm sure it tasted awesomeand the homemade bake straight /hot out of the oven ...Awesome!!! The drink in the bottle with all the herbs spices .....and the garlic bread/mashed yams/grilled lobster...another delicious meal. Nice one again...As always Thanks David andNate ...safe travels...Blessings Peace.
great video David! Keep them coming :)
You know I will. So good to see you too!
It just look like a big rat! Oh david you really love that rat i see.😂 omg! Just looking at it all cleaned ughh. Man your tummy good.
Peace & love from Lebanon🇱🇧 we are waiting for you ,are you coming back this summer David?
David love your videos man! greetings from Amsterdam!!
YOOO! Greetings RickyRoss!!!! You are so lucky to be from such an incredible city!
@@Davidsbeenhere always welcome when you visit!!! 💪🏽 keep up the good work! We really enjoy your content
My Army Buddie a cool backwoods man from Louisiana swore possum stew was heavenly Good Guy just happened to be Black Man too I believe him Me Ill eat anything edible lol.
If you come to Grenada, be sure to lookup Linton at Mt Gazo. Not everyone puts the love and care into their cooking like Linton!
Upload your Portugal videos
Lotta Sodium in there. Watch it if you are hypertensive (have High Blood Pressure).
That's the only way I know how to do manicou, Curry-Stew, it looks so 😋 and that bake, when I see he stick the fork in it I knew it was gonna be good.
Oh it was all so good!
That’s another bold one to eat roadkill.
Thats not roadkill, he said it was shot (hunted). The 1 and only rule for eating roadkill is that it must be done by you or in your presence.
Never heard of anyone eating this thing, nor have I ever seen one . I know they beat manicou. I won't eat it either. If it is not fish and have scales and fins, or chicken 🐔 no ducks, or lamb, goat or cow I won't eat it.
I think it is am abomination unto me to eat other meat.
You are correct. The creator of all things instructed us to eat only animals that has cloven feet and chew its cud. The pig is not to be eaten either. Fish with fin and scales are to be eaten no shell fish.
But we won't judge those who eat the forbidden foods.
Oh my, it looks like a big rat! Wow
My country is the best❤❤🏆✅🇬🇩🇬🇩🔥🔥🚨🚨🚨
Hey David. First of all, I have to apologize to the possum/opossum family of wild meats. I have since learned that they are not giant rats but that they are marsupials like the kangaroo. Possums exist in Australia while opossums exist in North and south America. So no more rat talk. Still, I couldn't eat it. It looked delicious though. I was surprised that he made a bake to go with it, but the bake reminds me of home: so rustic. The lambie/conch and the lobster looked tasty too but these are all foods that I have never eaten. Now, what's this natural viagara all about?🤔 Hmmm. Be careful 🤭🤣🤣🤣. Anyway, you have more guts and stomach for these foods than I will ever have. So enjoy. Have a great day and blessed weekend. Mucho respeto y amor. Happy mother's day to your mom and Ana 🎉
Just looking at that stew make my stomach sick not for me sorry
@@franklinkellman7029 not for me either. 🤮
I would pass on that too
I would eat it, pass them to me
David, you look intrigued and scared at the same time!!! Lol!
Just a question wold you try cat and dog in parts of the world where it's there culture? If you have already how do you think it tastes?
That’s amazing. Where can we find this place?❤
There are heaps of possums here in Australia. In the suburbs. Everywhere
Hey man are you still in grenada ?😊
Darrell Simon. David is not in Grenada now. He travelled there a few months ago to do this series of videos, so you are now seeing them. 🇹🇹🇨🇦
@@JudyT868 thank you
@@darrellsimon4462 You are very welcome. All of the videos that you see are done in advance of David showing them. Hope you continue to watch and enjoy. Have a great day. Happy mother's day to all moms tomorrow.🙏🇹🇹🇨🇦
I live in California and we have tons of possums. Not interested in eating possums that's really gross
Possums are still eaten in the South
We got plenty of them up here in New Jersey, they look gross.
Just to let you know that video of Xiaoman with you and Nathan in the Amazon showed up in my notifications.. Now I know who the mystery man is that you referred to in the newsletter. He is truly amazing. Loved his video.🤗🇹🇹🇨🇦
WOOHOO! So glad you saw it! There is another part coming and then we are dropping an entire series on it! Its going to be truly an epic series! Have a beautiful Saturday Judy!
@@Davidsbeenhere hi David. Now I know, through my own research, that the possum/opossum is NOT a giant rat, but rather related to the family of marsupials like the kangaroo. So no more 'rat' talk. Can't wait to see the series in the Amazon. Were the tribesmen commando? A lot of dangling ding-a-lings 🤭😜🤣. Just my curiosity, that's all. Anyway, have a blessed day today and Happy Mother's Day to all the moms in your family. May God bless you all.🙏😇💐💐💐💐🌹🥰🇹🇹🇨🇦
One correction and observation @24:26 you mentioned creole conch is curried conch which is incorrect. Creole conch is tomato based totally different from curry based food items.
Good morning David amazing job 👍👍👍
I proud no little. Greenz to the world!! Well done!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Excellent job!! Haven't been to Grenada since 2015. Time to go back!
Maine lobsters are northern Atlantic lobster aka Canadian lobsters aka Maine lobsters. I think rock lobster is different but not 100%
Super ..🔥🔥🙏🙏💯💯💯❤❤❤
Is that Under the counter tonic bka”Heaven in a bottle” tonic only for Men to drink?
The food, the flavors the nature ..100% ..am hungry know
Wow new video 🤩🤩 I’m excited for watching this 😊😊
Great vid 😋👍
Possums are wild giant rats. I've never had possum, but I'm open to try it.
Don't what you don't see are people who eat bush meat and ended up with central nervous system diseases that they never recovered from.
These scsnvagers carry diseases that can be transfered to humans when eaten
Possums are not related to rats. They are marsupials.
@@troystpaul100 I didn’t know that possums are marsupials? Kangaroos are also marsupials
Open those eyes 😂
Love that you visited my home country
That possum looks yummy its very fat😋
Manacou err yucky its too chewy
Waw that bake looks nice
Hey dont mind the negative comments by mostly Americans Its not intentional its just their hormonal and spiritual connection to junk food and soda thats acting up😂😅
Use ice water or ice for burns
Awesomeness 👌...+254
Thank you so much Lynn! So glad you enjoyed it have a beautiful weekend too!
In Grenada opossums is a wild delicacies like racoon in the states
My favorite is new mexico rattle snake or florida alligator meat rabbit & squirrel all tast better
Exotic meats 😂😂😂😂
Niceee 👍🏿👍🏿
I could probably handle the bread and gravy but I have a textural issue with gelatinous fat.. it grossed me out! LoL I feel the same way about prime rib so it’s nothing against possum meat although it probably wouldn’t be be my choice but I’d definitely take a courtesy bite as not to be rude towards the cook. 😊
AWESOMENESS
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 👍
😍😍❤
Looks like oxtails😂😂😂😂😂
Hey man come to Trinidad and Todago you will get manicou
Thanks for letting us know. I was going to go to all the Caribbean islands but I'll just stick to Jamaica and eat goat, chicken and beef. It's the only island it seems that don't eat scavengers.
@@eileenwatt8283 Eating Manicou is a matter of choice. No one forces you to eat it. One has to specifically request it and very few restaurants offer it on their menu.
Manico is even tastier when it is salted and dried in the sun
That man can't cook
