Easy Squirrel Brown Gravy
Caouane1:
Per Mike's (Bicycleman) request. Here's an easy way to make a squirrel gravy. Measurements don't need to be precise and the only essential ingredients are squirrels, onions, oil, flour, and seasoning.
Squirrels (any number depending upon number of guests/pot size)
Seasoning (black pepper, red pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, salt)
1 medium white or yellow onion (chopped)
1 bell pepper (chopped)
Oil (enough to almost cover the bottom of pot)
1/4 cup flour
Cut up squirrels, dry off, season
Heat oil over medium to medium high and add squirrels (we're browning them not trying to cook thoroughly) - First picture
Once squirrels are browned, remove, lower heat to medium low to medium, then add onion, bell pepper, and flour, stir
Important - stir almost constantly for the next 5 to 10 minutes until the flour and oil is brown. - Second picture (note flour on utensil and bottom of pot)
Add water to almost cover squirrels - Third picture
At this point you can cover it and leave on stove top at low simmer or do like I do and stick it in the oven at 300 degrees (both for 2 to 2.5 hrs) until
squirrels are tender and water has cooked down to a respectable gravy. - Last picture
Serve over rice.
Bicycleman:
John, now you have gone and done it - I am homesick for some Louisiana cooking.
That look very tasty.
One little question: Do you do sticky rice or the flaky style?
Caouane1:
Sticky. I noticed my recipe is basically the same as yours. But as you know, everyone makes gumbo and brown gravy pretty much the same way, but everyone's gumbo and gravy tastes different.
