Jay's Crock Pot Squirrel Mulligan (yes we eat squirrels in AR)
3 or 4 whole squirrels (You can cook them whole or cut them up before cooking)
5 potatoes cubed
1 large onion diced
2 or 3 jalapeno peppers seeds removed and chopped fine (or if you like things really hot, leave the seeds in)
saltine crackers
black pepper
salt as needed
Boil the squirrels in salted water in a pot on the stove or cook them in the crock pot until tender. I usually cook the squirrels in my crock pot for about 3 hours on high, then finish off the recipe in a pot on the stove.
Remove the squirrel meat from the bones.
In the water you cooked the squirrel in, boil potatoes, onion, and peppers until the potatoes are tender. Add the meat into this. With this mixture cooking on low to medium, crumble enough saltine crackers into the mixture to thicken it. Just keep adding crumbled crackers until it's as thick as you want it. Keep stirring it as you add the crackers, and cook for about 15 minutes. Make sure your fire is not too hot or it will stick!
The salt on the crackers should add enough salt, but add more to taste if needed. I add about a tablespoon of black pepper just for the taste.
This will look like a big pot of grey mess but I promise you it will be good!

Now this is one dish I plan to try. And no, I'm sure it does not taste like chicken. :o

Yeah, but for it to be successful you have to kill 5 of those little rodents. Cricked would love to go catch a few of them, but she doesn't like them dead.
