My dad alsways told me how great BBQ coon was when I was a kid so I had to give it a try….for him.lol
I cleaned one of coons I caught trapping for bobcat last year. Cut all the fat off and into smaller boneless chunks. I soaked the meat in vinegar and salt water for a few days then froze it. Took it out the other day and soaked it in milk for a few days. Rubbed it in BBQ sauce, virgin olive oil, some seasoning, and some vegetables. Wrapped it in tin foil and added a 1/2” of water. Baked it at 350 for 3 hours. The texture was still pretty chewy. Threw it in my crock pot for a half day. Pops made a BBQ sandwich. I had 2 pieces and tossed the rest. It reminded me of the crow I made. Also like “gizzard” taste. Well, I won’t make any coon in my lifetime again.
