Credit crunch food crisis - please help?!
I am finding it hard to meet the food bills so have decided to try and cook a badger I found on the side of the road, can anyone suggest any way I could do it so my children wont know and it will taste ok!. also any tips on how to skin/gut it would be great!.
This is a very serious question and we are really struggling to make ends meet!.
If this works I may try some more, any tips on other animals that I could run over that wont damage my car too much!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

LOL !. !. !. can't help you with the skinning/gutting!. But seriously, anything in the crockpot has got to be good!. Throw in a bunch of onions and garlic, add potatoes and carrots!. Pour some water over the works and let it cook all day!. You can use this same technique for rabbits, squirrels, possum, racoon, etc!. They're relatively small and won't do much damage to your car!. I'd stay away from skunk (obvious reasons) and unfortunately, though much tastier, deer will do a terrible number on your car!.
Best wishes to you! :D

The first things first road kill can be safe to eat but only if it is fresh!. If you don't gut it right away the intestines will leak toxins into the meat and you could kill your family!. If it is stiff it's too late!. However if it is fresh kill the first thing you need to do is slice it from it's neck to its rectum and pull out the guts!. Then take it home and skin it!. If you don't want anyone to know debone (remove bruised meat) it and cook it like stir fry or boil some raw biscuits and make "chicken" and dumplings!. Obviously a deer would be your best kill but not with a car!. So I would seek out thinks like raccoon and squirrels!. Now I have a question for you!. Why do you have the internet if you can't buy Ramon Noodles!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

The food is basic but healthy, and she does a weekly food plan for
$40 and $75, which I don't know how that works out in GBpounds, but is cheap!. Please don't eat roadkill you muppet, shop in ALDI or LIDL if you are in the UK, or live on supernarkets own pasta and sauce, it is much tastier and healthier than squished baddger!.

Um, that doesn't sound very safe!.!.!. you should try Ramen!. You can get six packets for only a dollar and it's delicious! I wouldn't want your children to get sick and road kill badger probably wouldn't be a good idea!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
I'm sorry but with all the people out there asking stupid questions I can't take this seriously!.
I also wouldn't try to run over animals, as you will end up huting yourself more than killing game!. Get a gun, bullets and a hunting licenseWww@FoodAQ@Com

According to one French cookbook, 'Les Cuisines Oubliees' by Annie and Jean-Claude Molinier, it was traditional, prior to cooking, to skin the badger and then suspend it in a fast-flowing river for 48 hours to "de-grease" it!.
After that, you cut it into pieces, brown it in a frying pan with butter, flambée with armanac, pour over some sparkling wine and simmer for two hours!. Then add a glass of pig's blood, two egg yolks, some ginger and creme fraiche and, voila!.!.!.a meal fit for anyone other than a Gloucestershire peasant!.
Henry Smith, though, favoured simpler recipes!. He rated cured badger hams as "exceptionally good fare" and declared: "Badger pies are even better than pork pies, hot or cold!." He also said that the animals were at their best in October or November as they were "fat and succulent by then"!. And he reminded wannabe chefs what good gravy could be obtained from the skinned feet and tail, thickened with a little flour!.
Go for rabbits, ducks and other small animals,
Cattle deer pigs sheep and deer tend to make a mess of your car!.
