Well technically it was a groundhog.
And you know what? It was actually pretty tasty. Shot one in the woods while looking for squirrels at my in-laws' farm a few days ago. I know they are a nuisance but Ive never really killed a critter and not eaten it. So I skinned it out and brought it home. Gave it a day in the brine. Went deer hunting this morning and when I got home my wife had a nice stew waiting for me. Nice and tender. I would go as far as to liken it to a beef pot roast. Would eat again.
Anyone else ever eat one?
Edit: The finished pic doesnt really do it justice. Apparently stews dont photograph too well. Also, all of my garnish is out in my garden in the pouring rain.
