Anyone ever actually eaten it, not pussy, the animal? Figuring it'd probably be similar to nutria. Assa, Jehler, Hudson, anybody?

BEAVER TAIL RECIPE:

Hold over open flame until rough skin blisters. Remove from the heat. When cool, peel off skin. Roast over coals or simmer until tender.

DEEP FRIED BEAVER:

2-3 # 1" cubes beaver
6 eggs
2 cups flour
salt, pepper, ginger, sage, poultry seasoning, etc.
oil for frying
milk

Mix eggs and any combination of the spices above for a variety or about 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper. Alternate beating and adding about 1 TBS milk until the mix has thinned enough to jiggle when shaken. Continue to beat with a fork until the ingredients are thoroughly blended. Stir in the beaver cubes until they are well coated.

Drop individual coated cubes into hot oil (2" deep) . Cubes will sink and float as they start frying. Stir and turn until golden brown making sure no chunks remain stuck to the bottom of the pan.

Eat plain or dip in sweet and sour sauce, BBQ sauce, honey, honey mustard sauce or your favorite steak sauce. Try different types of salad dressings.

If you want sour beaver stew get AT to send you that ten-year-old baking powder he was trying to use.
