Three Possum Recipes
Possum and Taters

Ingredients:
1 young, fat possum
8 sweet potatoes
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon sugar
salt

Directions: First, catch a possum. This in itself is excellent entertainment on a moonlight night. Skin the possum and remove the head and feet. Be sure to wash it thoroughly. Freeze overnight either outside or in a refrigerator. When ready to cook, peel the potatoes and boil them tender in lightly salted water along with the butter and sugar. At the same time, stew the possum tender in a tightly covered pan with a little water. Arrange the taters around the possum, strip with bacon, sprinkle with thyme or marjoram, or pepper, and brown in the oven. Baste often with the drippings.

a pinch of salt
Chili Beans for extra flavor
And whatever other ingredients that are hot and spicy you would like to add.

3. Put some tomatoe sauce in the pot(s). Then add the possum.

Preperation:
1. skin the possum
2. remove possum's tail, internal organs, head, and feet
3. Cut the possum exactly in half from where the head was to where the tail used to be.
4. wash possum real good in warm beer (get the beer from draining the empty's you accumulated doing steps #1 and #2)
5. Rub both halves down with olive oil, seasoning salt, regular salt, and lots of pepper.

Directions:
1. Build a nice size campfire
2. Split a 24" hunk of firewood into two planks
3. Use splinters from the edge of the planks to attach the 1/2 possum pieces to the planks, meaty side out.
4. Place the planks just near enough to the campfire where the planks won't catch fire, possum side toward the fire
5. Start drinking more beer and let the possum cook for about an hour to an hour and a half.

Serving:
1. When the possum has a nice crispy look to it and most all of the possum greese has dripped out, usually after about an hour to an hour and a half (with a properly made fire) remove the possum planks from the edge of the fire.
2. Remove the possum pieces from the planks by pulling out the "hold down" splinters (or just pull the possum pieces from the planks since the splinters will be pretty much burned down)
3. Throw away the possum pieces sides and eat the planks.

people down South ever ate a Greesy Possom---We Never ever had any her till around 20=25 years ago for around 5 years they were every where---I never knew any person to ever eat one of those Greesy Animals---We did find a use for then after a few years and they saved me a lot of money as I would find a road killed possem and drive over it 2 times after I did that I was good for around 2 months of greese jobs---If I made the mistake and drove over it 3 times you were sure to get a ticket for making the road to slipery to drive on---Now We have to get greese jobs at the service station because we killed them all off using them to greese our cars !
