How do you cook roadkill?

Have you heard the word...... About the Bird ....

 

Had a feeling I would start something !!!

 

I almost hit a black baby wild porker pig in TX about a year ago...but a driver told me...driver you wouldn't like the taste of that bacon.....the Lil guy was running along side my truck then ran back inside the woods

 

I used to know the old guy on the cover of this book.

 

Um um. ..I'm not so sure I would want to know this dude

 

He was cool. He made homemade wine that was the best you'd ever taste. Cooked up soft-shell turtles that was great. If there were a lot more people like him the world would be better off in the long run.

 

I'll stick with my deer,moose,fish and at times a piece of alligator.

 

Not really roadkill more like warkill, I'm reading a book written by a WWII ordinance liason officer for an armored division. He documents his days before landing before Normandy to the end I guess (not done yet). One of his great stories is about a point they start penetrating actual Germany the Germans were shelling the Americans, there was a large field between with cows. About every day a random cow would be killed and one or another combat foot infantry troops would go out and recover the cow after shelling stopped for fresh meat.

This officer was attached to the tanks maintenance, the mechanics were generally always sorta in the rear working on the tanks so they had less and less opportunity to go out and recover a cow for themselves until one day during actual active shelling they drove a T-2 tank recovery vehicle out onthe battlefield, opened the bottom hatch and sent out a soldier to hook a rope to the dead cow then they dragged it back to bivouac and had a feast. It is believed to be the first and only recovery of a dead cow in actual combat under fire.
