I was looking on Allrecipes.com for some new slow cooker ideas when I came across this lovely number. I was thinking of doing this for our next Freezer meal group. What do you think? Below I copied the reviews just to show you how hot-dang-yuuummmy it sounds. I'll send Monte out shootin' for a dozen or so squirrels - that should keep him busy for a while, right? (even as I type I have the accent going)

I'm only giving 4 stars because it tasted a bit nutty.

This has potential, but I felt it was a little bland. It needed more seasoning, possibly some fresh garlic and more salt and pepper.

Only someone named Bobbie Jo could have come up with that one :)
Wow, I am SO glad I am not in your freezer group!! Remember when Cody served us Moose at Bunko that one time. I think it's all in your head, if you don't know what you are eating it just might taste good but SERIOUSLY!!
Oh my gosh. I thought I could handle the thought until I read the first line of the recipe.... gutted and cleaned, and chopped into pieces. Excuse me while I go and .... ya know... be sick. Are you freaking serious. People actually eat that? Okay, maybe if you are starving or if you live so far up in the hills that a trip to Costco just isn't possible, but still. Squirrel, Seriously?!
Okay, I honestly have to say....times were a bit tough for my family, and as a kid we did eat rabbit a couple of times. And I'm not sure how close squirrel and rabbit are - but it tastes NOTHING like chicken!
Thank heavens for the big bag of Tyson-all-ready-plucked-gutted,de-boned,& cleaned chicken - ready to use!
What an...interesting recipe. I too love that it was a "Bobby Jo" who submitted the recipe. And that comment about it tasting a little nutty cracked me up!! I am usually one who will try most anything but I am not so sure about this one. :)
Gross! Hey thanks for the myfitnesspal link! I love it...it is so easy and great! I am hoping it will help me reach my goal!
You found me! Now I get to enjoy your cute blog and great/funny insight! You are the best!
