Here’s a great ole’ southern recipe handed down from my great grandmother.
Road Kill Stew
First, you need to find the freshest road kill you can. The fresher the better. Possum would be the kill of choice but rabbit or any other kritter would work nicely.
It needs to be skinned and cleaned and chopped into bite size pieces if you have enough actual meat to have a bite-size.
Add some beef broth to a large sauce pan and bring to a boil. Add your kill meat.
Salt and pepper to taste. Next, you will want to add some veggies. Fresh, chopped up polk salad would be great, some kudzu, dandelion stems, some root veggies. If you have a carrot or two, celery, and green onions, wild one’s taste even better. Add all this to the boiling kill meat then turn on low to allow to simmer. Salt and pepper to taste.
Allow to cook all afternoon to insure you get rid of all the E-coli left in the kill, or until nice and tender. Serve hot with some goat's milk cornbread and a tall glass of shine.
Ummmmmm MMmmmm this will really get your mouth to watering once you start smelling it while it’s cooking.
Bon A petite
