This subject came up at one of our family gatherings a few years ago. My Great Grandmother said they used to eat coon back in the day but she never cared for it. She went on to say that, on the other hand, if someone would bring her a possum she could work some magic with it along with a couple pounds of new potatoes.

Are you in the Hammond area? I used to have a rental property in Hammond and used a guy named Duck to paint and do the ocassional minor repair. Good gardener, decent enough of a painter, pretty lousy carpenter and completely undependable. But he was a personable guy and the price was right, if you could find him. He also loved raccoon...
We may have a mutual acquaintance!

If you were getting a 12 pack of ANY kind of beer for a raccoon, you were doing alright in my book.

Nooooooo shite. If anybody wants meat, I could stock your freezer. Them suckers spread my trash all over my yard and fight with our pets. I put cinder blocks on the lid of my trash can and they still get into it. I off them every time I see one in my yard.

F'ing neighbor lady feeds the 6-8 little bastards and their demon spawn that tear up shite! IDGAF what she thinks or if we are in a neighborhood, there's a high powered pellet gun by front and back door. I might not have won the war, I'm working my way through them.....great bait is the fried won ton chips from chinese take out.

I can't keep a gun inside cause I have a one year old. But I'll sit in my back yard and smoke a cigar with my .22 air rifle loaded just in case one decides to show his face. I'd hit them with the 12 gauge if it wouldn't get the cops called on me. That pellet gun has put down close to 20 coons since I got it this summer. And there's still plenty of them back there. Just the other day a pack of about 6 or 7 of them were sniffing around my back yard. My first thought was "Oh boy! More target practice!"
Small cheap bag of cat food works great too.

Yup. I had a roustabout working for me at LOOP years ago. He set a trap and caught one. Came in the next morning with a tupperware full stewed coon. When lunch came around and he heated it up he had such a proud look on his face that I couldn't tell him no thanks. So I tried it. And like a few others have said...greasy, stringy, but not that bad.

Poon or coon?
How's the cat fishing?

I had it when I was young baked with some sweet potatoes...not a bad flavor, but it is just entirely too greasy for me....

Ahhh the good ole days, a coon for a 12 pack of natty.
You didn't happen to trade them at a place called Edna's did you?
My buddy's dad had some land leased for cows that had a dozen or so pecan trees on it. We traded a many of coon for beer, hell we traded rabbit, fish and even bull frogs for it. Wasn't a whole lot of deer around or would have been deer too.
BTW yeah I have eaten it several times. Not really something I would want to cook and eat though. I coon hunted with a guy that ate it a lot probably 3 or 4 times a month, and he was white.
