Groundhog recipies. Remember- remove the scent glands before cooking. Yum.

That was too funny and I'll wager quite yummy as well, but the poem sums it all up! Cheers!

A Poem Lovely As A Beer

I think that I shall never hear,
A poem lovely as a beer.

A beer whose frothy mug is pressed,
Against my mouth like a flowing breast;

A beer that bathes in a keg all day,
With bittersweet nectar for which I pray;

A beer my throat in Summer quench,
Served on a tray by a busty wench;

When the empty mug on the counter is lain;
Refill it quickly with the fruit of the grain.

Poems are written by beer drinkers like me,
So order 'nother round while I take a pee.

Gross! I saw these recipes, and now I'm heading back inside for six more weeks of frozen dinners.

If I'm going to eat strange meat, I prefer it already canned.

Maybe you could substitute groundhog in this delicious recipe for possum.

I have eaten groundhog...it is not good. My favorite ground hog recipe...discovered after having tasted it unfortunately...

Skin, remove head, and carefully clean groundhog leaving the carcass intact.
Soak overnight in salt water.
Generously season body cavity with olive oil, cumin, red pepper, and salt.
Cover a brick with butter and place brick inside body cavity.
Bake until the brick softens...discard groundhog and eat the brick.
