Funny story...my little girl (she is 3):

BabyGirl - Daddy what do you with the raccoons?
Daddy StinkDog12 - ahhh baby, daddy just sends them to a better place
BabyGirl - oh, you take them to Disney World Daddy?

well, my story was from several decades ago. when i was in high schoo, and college, while deer hunting during the day, we'd coon hunt at night to make spending money. We'd sell the hides for about 18-20 each and the meat for 2-4 each...

Ole geauxt knows what's up!

The young ones having real light meat.


Now that I think about it, don't know that I've seen too many coonasses eat coon. Which is strange, cause I've seen more then one try to cook a beaver.

Guess it's too much like eating their cousin to em.

Used to run trap lines when we were kids. Started out getting 12 for a coon hide. 45 for grey fox. Price got down to 2 for coon and 15 for fox and we quit doing it. We were getting about 5 for a coon carcass.

Otters were the holy grail at our place. Coons were just a nuisance at $8

Dang. Wish I knew someone down here that paid 15 bucks for 1 of them. I could make 150 bucks in a week all while taking care of my problem.

My grandad cooked them when I was young . He always used the sweet taters and baked tgen in the oven recipe . It wasn't bad at all . If anybody wants one I usually see about 5 per hunting trip . I can hook you up

If you eat coon and it isn't tasty, then whoever cooked it didn't know what the hell they were doing.

Par boil it in a turkey pot with zatarains crab boil until its tender. Throw it on a pit and coat it with either Jack millers or Pig Stand BBQ sauce. I'll take that over steak any day.

If you do any research, coons are as clean as cats...in their mannerisms...before you cook it, you have to take out all the glands around the muscles,quite a few too, my grandpaw showed me how to do it...Baked coon is not bad.

It's not bad. We season it in seafood boil, bake it with taters and onions.

Yeh, I agree....But I would feel a little weird about cooking up a cat too though.

For some reason when I started reading this I was picturing your dad at a nightclub and you sitting in the car and then him telling you to walk home. I was thinking WTF.

i've had bear in Wyoming that was arrowed out of an apple orchard. was fried on a griddle with salt and pepper. tasted like coon. like anything else, cookin without the trinity and some Tonys leaves a lot to be desired.
I take a lot of time prepping my coons. Then i marinate. don't care to bake with sweet potatos but love to smother with a gravy. the men at the camp open their mouths every time their elbows bend.
