I haven't eaten squirrel in a very, long time. I grew up to where my dad hunted squirrels, rabbits, raccoon, pheasant, quail, & deer. My dad would skin the animals and sometimes clean them out or, my mom would clean them out.
My mom soaked the meat in I think salt water for awhile. Then she browned the meat with bones in a little oil. Then she'd put it into a pan and pour cream of mushroom soup over it for a gravy. She then added potatoes, carrots, celery, onions, & sometimes cabbage. Seasoned it with salt & pepper. Squirrel does taste good, when cooked right. As long as I don't have to kill it and clean it, I'm fine with eating it. LOL
My dad now feeds squirrels in their yard along with the tame birds. Cats are the enemies and he shoots those with his bb gun along with any dogs who catches & kills his 'pets'. My sister's & my 3 small dogs & their Dachshund are the only exception to dogs in their yard.
