Squirrel Guts!

[Slacker24seven]

Im off to my new second shoot tomorrow. Its very small but absolutely full of bunnies and squirrels.

Now then, the bunnies are no problem at all but could someone point me in the direction of a good guide for gutting squirrels? Ive never done it before is it just like a rabbit but smaller?

I quite fancy trying squirrel meat after reading the thread on it yesterday.

In fact im really excited at the thought of my new shoot

I also know theres 'some big bird of prey' in the area so hopefully I'll get to see it in action too!

i just skin and gut them the same as a rabbit, and well worth the effort too.

Gut them the same as rabbit but you'll find it harder skinning you won't be able to pull the skin off so easy so just slip a sharp knife along where the skin is attached to the meat. Tried roast squizzer with just a little salt and pepper last week thought it tasted a bit like turkey. Will try marinating etc, the next one's.
