Squirrel with Rice

Squirrel with Rice

Ingredients:
Several young cut up squirrels
1 cup uncooked rice
3 tablespoons bacon drippings
1 onion, diced
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1. Brown squirrel in skillet with bacon fat.
2. Remove squirrel from skillet and sauté garlic, onion, bell pepper, and celery in
drippings.
3. Return squirrel to skillet.
4. Add remaining ingredients to skillet. Add enough water to fully cook rice. Cover
and cook until rice is done and water is absorbed.
Note: If you have older squirrels, they will be tough! You will need to cook them for 15 to
20 minutes in a separate pot (with broth) before proceeding to Step 3. Young squirrels
are best.
