Cooking Raccoon | Wild Food Cooking | Traditional Survival Foods

Share and watch, and like if you think the general public needs to open their eyes about wild game. This is a do-over since the first version was “age restricted.” This is the “Family friendly” version. Just good a old camp cook-out.

This entire series is about catch n cook!

In this video we examine in biological detail how to properly prepare a nuisance wild raccoon which was provided to me by a farmer, in a way that makes it palatable. Here, we show and discuss, in graphic detail, how to skin, de-gland (remove scent glands that create an off-flavor) and then marinate overnight. Next we turn the wild nuisance raccoon into a stew for a delectable traditional meal.

Skip to 4:28 for NEW, never before seen take on eating wild game (rant).

Big thanks to my childhood stuffed animal “rocket” for all it’s cooperation in filming the more “age restricted” portions of the filming. It was a great stand-in given the circumstances.

Help us revive ancient and traditional ways to prepare wild game that have been long forgotten.

The recipe was taken from the book “Native Harvests: American Wild Foods and Recipes”

KNIFE USED – — To skin the racoon, I am using a Trout & Bird by Grohmann: http://www.gknives.com/index.php/products/outdoor/hunting-knives

Watch us skin, de-gland, de-bone and cook over open fire.

Soaking was done overnight in vinegar and pickling spices.

The raccoon was then boiled for about 1.5 hours, then transferred into a pot with the remaining ingredients with about 1 cup of reserve from the brine solution.

How did it taste? Watch to find out.
