1 dutch oven 1 quillpig skun and cleaned 6 taters cut in 1/2 carrots 1/2 a large onion 1/2 cup water Place all in dutch oven can be cooked in the oven or the coals of a fire, right yummy too!
You can add any spice or herb to this as you would like.
The after dinner snack.
1.Heat a heavy-bottomed saucepan over high heat. When the pot it hot, add 1/2 to 1 tsp. vegetable oil. 2.Add 1/2 cup wild rice, shake pan to thoroughly coat wild rice, cover, reduce heat to medium high, and shake pan until you can hear the rice popping. 3.Reduce heat to medium low and keep shaking until the popping slows. Note that wild rice will not make as much noise as popcorn does, so you will need to listen closely. 4.Sprinkle with salt to taste and serve.

Its kinda neat that odd critters show up like that. Armadillos are that way here, a roadkill one still stops traffic but theryre getting more common west of here.

I have only found a couple to be to piney tasting. You put enough onions carrots and sometimes cabbage in the pot and all is fantastic.

We use to get some blacktail and mule deer sent to us from out west and it was a pine type diet for the blacktail and sage for the muleys and they had a strong taste. Granny soaked it in an orange juice marinade and the acid etc took the foreign tasts out pretty good.
