My squirrel story. I worked in a refinery and usually on Saturday or Sunday we would pitch in $$$ and cook up a big lunch or supper. One guy said he shot some squirrels on a hunt and one of our lady operators said she would love to cook some smothered squirrel. (For non-Texians, smothered means it is skillet cooked meat smothered in gravy...gravy makes anything 2-3 times tastier!) Well, she cooked it up and we served ourselves and as we began eating, there was a series of pinging from BBs hitting the plates. She looked up and said, I just cook it, I don't take the BBs out. Sans the BBs, it was a very tasty dish. Wonder what we did to our bodies with those lead BBs cooked in the meat
Had to chuckle Ray! When living in Iowa pheasant hunting was a Fall right of passage. But when my mother prepared the roasted pheasant she would NOT remove the buckshot.
Needless to say, as a young boy, my teeth needed replacing now and then! Lol
And YES to gravy!!!!!
Thanks for the memory!
