Nope.... That's where I draw the line... I found a dead mule when I was a kid and watched 13 possums crawl out of his rear end.. It smelled just as bad as it looked..NASTY!! But still an awesome video..Thanks..
I know I am late to this. But all the old timers i know that ate them . Keepted them for at least 2 weeks to feed and flush them out before they ate them . If they had time longer than the 2 weeks lol
There's so much to eat in the woods of the Eastern U.S besides deer and turkey. Squirrel, possum, coon, quail, dove, rabbit. I'm sure I'm forgetting something haha. I've had coon and possum, but growing up I ate many a squirrel and rabbit. Squirrel gravy and a pan of biscuits was my reward for getting up early after the 1st frost and walking through a stand of red oaks and black walnut trees. Daddy taught me to skin em and mama taught me to cook em. Soak em overnight in salt water, pot boil them for a few minutes, bread em and fry em. I always enjoyed small game more than deer. Both hunting and eating.
My former supervisor was born and raised in the South. Talked about eating possum... said it was too greasy... at least for him. Anyway, that looks to be one fine family you're raising there, sir. The youngest one definitely impressed me with his skill and courage in loading the stove. May your boys turn out to be good men, and best of luck to their futures.
Best one in a while! Lil Caleb is a star in the making brother! He really done a great job!! How many takes did you video of him to get it perfect like that? Love to see the bloopers 😆
Nicely done i been missing out i need more videos I've never tried possum I wouldn't even know where to look for one anyway thanks for sharing the meat did look tender
So, good job David for catching the possum and Caleb wowzers..it was like you had your own cooking channel very cool and loading the wood stove very cool, sure all the kids do that. Some people like myself don't personally kill possum and eat'em. I'm more of the ( leave em be, they can eat bugs they are good at keepin my area more free of bugs) but definitely not gonna judge what people catch and eat it didn't go to waste. Mama 🐻 and papa 🐻 must be super proud in a good way to see their kids do all these things they will forever remember and the kids will teach to their families later. Thanks for sharing yet another great video...
I'm a new subscriber couldn't believe when I found this video we do couple possums every year down here south Alabama and sometimes we use the recipe you got there in this video and sometimes we'll slap some sweet potatoes around them in the oven
Thanks Amye! We appreciate all our awesome viewers! We’re happy you like this video! It’s always nice when the person we mention by name actually watches the video 😂 It hasn’t always worked out so great 😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures I had to call my husband and tell him.. HEEHEE😂.. y'all made my week for sure. I'm learning more all the time watching your videos. Big hugs to all. Creator bless you in all your endeavors.
Caleb is adorable ! I had to rewind the video.... We're going to bread this baby in Campdog Seasoning. Was this scripted ? Or did Caleb do this straight off the cuff ? I foresee Caleb having his own Channel ! What does it taste similar too ? Rabbit, squirrel, chicken .. ? It reminded me of a cleaned Rabbit. Thank you for sharing CALEB ! Stay happy, healthy, hydrated and safe. May God continue to bless you and your family.
Oh he’s something else! He might have his own channel, or take over this one ...... I am not pushing him hard right now at all because he would burn out and lose interest. But little by little he’s gaining his skills 😂 I’m gonna say it tasted like a cross between squirrel and rabbit. I liked it better than rabbit actually
Never had possum but my dad has I always wondered what it tastes like but I was never that hungry 😂😂😂😂 but it looks good and look forward to trying your recipe hopefully I can try it one time.im a bizarre tpye of food guy
I ate a possum a while back. I soaked it in Dr. Pepper for a while (cause I read about it in a magazine-supposed to take gaminess out), boiled it for a little while, then I grilled it. In all honesty it was quiet good. Good vid.
Do you need to let the possum sit overnight in ice or did you just cook it? I’ve heard to feed a possum corn for a couple of weeks before eating it if you can to get a weird taste out of the meat? Thanks, McGie!
Great video Caleb, you *Snarling Dog. Not just anybody will tell you this but if you can find a possum crawling out of a downer cow or a deer that met an early demise via the roadways that possum will taste like possum and beef. *Caleb in the Bible was a tough guy and someone who was whole heartedly faithful to God and brave like devoted dog.
😱😱😱 WAY TO GO CALEB, THAT LOOKED DELICIOUS BUDDY!! WOW HE IS ADORABLE BLESS HIM, LOOKS LIKE PAPA CAN PUT THE LENS DOWN, WE GOT A NEW MOVIE MAKER IN TOWN 😂 HE DEFINITELY HAS HIS PAPAS SKILLS HOW HE JAM PACKED THAT WOOD IN THE FIRE AND GOT HIS FOOT IN THERE 😂😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures OH REALLY? THAT’S AWESOME 👏 AND HE OBVIOUSLY LIKES DOING THINGS AND BEING INVOLVED, GREAT STUFF! SORRY NOT BEEN WATCHING MUCH, UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE COVID SO TAKING IT DAY BY DAY 😑 I WILL CATCH UP SOON THOUGH 🤗🤗🤗
Oh mercy! I hope you are doing ok with it! It affects everyone differently...... hopefully you cope well with it! You might not be able to taste my possum!😱
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures IT’S BEEN A ROUGH FEW DAYS BUT I’M GETTING PLENTY OF REST AND FLUIDS SO WE WILL SEE HOW THINGS GO, NOT MY FAVOURITE PASTIME 🤣🤣🤣🤣I HAVE NO TASTE OR SMELL ANYMORE, SO DEFINITELY WON’T TASTE YOUR POSSUM, CAN YOU BELIEVE I CAN’T EVEN TASTE THE MARMITE??!!
in tomorrow’s video we cooked some that was definitely better than beef steak or chicken leg! What we have on today’s video was about the same as chicken!
Mehh .only if I'm starving. I leave them be one opossum will eat around 10,000 ticks a year. Now I'm not ruling eating them out but only if I'm starving
Ok sounds great! I forgot about this. Here’s my beaver video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LjTfhWJuGqg.html I’ve been doing this too long😂
Foods food man if ur a guy and ever experienced some bad PH now i don't wanna be biased use ur heads gent was no different from strikin oil in a swamp😂
You should check out Patreon and how it works, so you don't relly completely on you tube monetisation income. In this case if your video gets demonetised you will still have income, and maybe we will get to see some of the things you tube CEO's don't like to see haha God bless!
