whattyacallit......um......restraining order.

What's the difference between Portland and yogurt?
Yogurt has a living culture.

Keep your Canadoonian beaver. We've got lotsa beaver here in
Cheeseland. Big, sleek, glossy beavers. Beavers that could eat your
beavers for lunch.


g.c.

We are talking about beavers, right?



Speaking about eating beavers for lunch -- anybody got a good recipe?

COUNTRY STYLE BEAVER

2-3 lbs beaver steaks 1/2 inch thick
Bacon grease
2 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 medium onions
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can or 1/2 lb mushrooms

Combine flour, salt and pepper in a closable bag or 2 quart closable
plastic container and shake until mixed. Add beaver and shake until
well coated. Save remaining flour. Dice onions. Melt enough bacon
grease in the bottom of a fry pan to saute onions and beaver. Saute
onions and floured beaver in bacon grease, adding more grease as
needed. Place beaver aside.

Combine soup and mushrooms in frying pan. Dissolve 2 to 3 heaping tbsp
of seasoned flour in 2 cups cold water. Add to soup mix and simmer 5
minutes. Add beaver and onions to mix and simmer covered for 30
minutes.

The old fur trappers felt beaver tail to be a delicacy. Having had this
once, it's greasy, and a lot of work for little meat.

More to the point, modern dress customs seem to confirm the old complaint by
Bridger, Sublette, and all the other trappers that "beaver is thinnin' out."
