[Sca-cooks] A recipe for squirrel season

[Pat]

Hmm, how does one describe a taste?  About like describing a rainbow, I'd think.
First of all, it does depend upon what they have been eating.  Since I had a pecan orchard outside my bedroom when I was married, most of ours were nut fed.  I'd expect fruit fed ones to have slightly different nuances.  It does taste a bit like free range chicken, and rabbit, with the gaminess of wild deer thrown in.  It isn't as gamey as wild boar, but stronger than (most) wild rabbit.  Less fat than rabbit, more than deer.
