Mmmm, beaver! Bug Girl posted these beaver recipes from a 1960 pamphlet entitled Good Eating from Woods and Fields, which also includes instructions for cooking muskrat. Link -Thanks, ersatz soubriquet!

See more from the booklet in her Flickr stream.

    On the whole, it has an acquired taste that I just can’t get enough of.

    Its some sort of instinct in a situation like this to make eating beaver jokes, like a bug being drawn to a light bulb.

    Puns have been a large part of the neatorama comment board for a while, whatever the subject may be. I’m sure it would have surprised anyone to not see at least one pun listed.

    Notice how bacon fat makes even the humble beaver carcass into a delectable morsel.

    1. Remove all surface fat from beaver.
