Cookin' Possum

[@floridianthrasher5426]

When me and cleetus were in the swamp bayou we used to cook this with craw daddies and squirrells

[@davidbaynard3466]

I used to fix possum exactly like I did Rabbits. Boil them untill tender,,,, pouring off all that ole nasty fat water. Take him out and roll him in flower than brown him off,,, just like a rabbit. Really good meat.

[@lgonzalez1154]

Thank you for the videos..great content!

[@Brainchild69]

I ate one once. I soaked it in Dr. Pepper for a while, then boiled it a little bit, then salt and pepper and grilled it. It was pretty good.

My father cousin LOVED POSSUM and she lived to age 104

[@mkjredemption]

so far only video i have seen that has a decent recipe that looks legit and isn't making fun of cooking a possum

[@camfritz1449]

President William Taft's favorite dish.

[@rgwierdly]

Thank you for this recipe. We have opossums that live in our bird pen. They eat more than the birds and welcome. To all those with nothing but nasty to say, didn't anyone teach you manners? "If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all." My thought is, when you're hungry and there are no grocery stores to raid, perhaps you will change your minds. This stew looks scrumptious and I don't care whether the meat is chicken, pork, beef, venison, squirrel or opossum. I will cook it up to feed my family.

[@puggedpoetry129]

It's interesting you say that about there being no grocery stores because the reason I was looking up how to cook opossum was just in case something like that happens.

[@gotfoodstamps]

Fuckit, meat is meat. I'd try it . But I'm also asian and eat anything , lol.

[@DesignzRUs1]

Cat as well right?

[@murrt.haynes3117]

Hell, on R&R in Thialand from 'Nam, I could not read the menu and asked the Thai waitress to order something delicious. I was served a green soup that I tasted and it was delicious. I then dipped my spoon deep and came up with a chicken foot. I called the waitress back to complain and she nodded yes. In English, the dish was Chicken Foot Soup which was a delicacy to them. To each his own. It was damned good, I must admit!

[@seanodonnell9826]

Haha!

[@albert333pool]

Dog too? 🤦🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

[@davidbaynard3466]

Your right, me as t is meat and theres no more weed wrong with e as ting possum that there is a cow or a pig.

[@howardvenable9822]

One of the best meals I ever had was possum. It was in the West Indies where it also lives. The main difference from this recipe is that possum was traditionally cooked skin on. They built a fire of dry grass which singed all the hair off without cooking the meat. Possum is like pork because so much flavor and fat is in and just below the skin!

[@fixerupper3042]

I was looking at a cook book that was about 90 years old. Inside was a possum recipe and a carp recipe.

[@20yearsago88]

Good ol southern cookin

[@LuciferMorningStar666Satan]

Actual opossum cookin, it's about dern time! I've been lookin fer a video like dis. Yeeeeeeeehawwwwwwww!!!

In the depression, if you could even get a possum you were damn lucky.!! So don’t be acting all uppity , some of you wouldn’t be here today if yo daddy hadn’t found a possum to bake.!!

[@robeyharrison9203]

That is soo true!!! Most now dont know what hard times really are!!!

[@shaheedharun445]

I eat food based on how it tastes (and not having rabies) not based on if penniless folk ate em in the great depression 80 yrs ago! You'll eat sewer rat just cause a few Chinese eat them?? #barf

[@shaheedharun445]

I guess I'm being real uppity tho, so be it

[@puggedpoetry129]

Depression?. My mother was still cooking and serving us possum in the sixties. I'm sure she'd still be cooking and serving us possum much longer than that but she died in 69 so

[@LeftTwix]

Are you drunk?

[@compscript7973]

I raise rabbits and the possums will not go away. Tonight 2 possums went into a rabbit cage and I closed the door. Guess I will be eating possum.

[@brianjackson3885]

just in case if im lost in the woods a come across a cabin with a few pots and pans left behind from whoever was there last

[@dogheartsunspots2145]

I'll teach you guys how you cook possum,best is curry with lots of pepper...

[@murrt.haynes3117]

My grandmother's recipe: Clean 'possum thoroughly, season well, rub with cooking oil and put upon a pine board back down. Put into 200 degree oven for 7 hours, basting with juices every 30 min. When done, remove from oven, throw the 'possum in the trash and eat the board.

[@ptrainenator]

How did you start the recipe? I would like to know is basically what was in the pot before you add the meat and about what temp should you start putting pieces in at. Was it a light layer of oil in the pot you started with, water, or did that oil come out of the meat after you added while cooking? Thanks.

[@juraeesmcneilgmail]

Chef Folse ... please answer the question on how did you start the recipe? I have a possum in the sink, thawing out and ready to prepared. what was in the pot prior to adding the possum? how was the possum parts cut up? was seasoning added before the meat and what temp and for how long did the meat cook before adding onion, potatoes, basil etc?

[@jaxflfreebird]

I work with a 91 year old black woman and today she told me how much she liked possum. Before this I had only considered it to be a joke. I didn't think people really ate possum but guess what they do. I guess it may have started back in slave days and I guess that explanation makes sense. It kinda makes me feel more for the old woman if she had had to eat possum when times were lean. Mostly I just see people JOKING about eating possum. I used to catch them all the time in live traps when they were eating my cat's food outside. The damned things STINK to high heaven. I can't imagine how people would decide to eat such a disgusting animal. But if it isn't going to make you sick then I guess protein is protein.

[@murrt.haynes3117]

For your information, those poor black people originate many dishes that are considered delicacies these days!

[@robeyharrison9203]

My dad was never a slave But He sure would eat a possum!!! It actually meant survival for many white and Black!!!

[@puggedpoetry129]

Poor people ate possum. My father caught them in traps that he made himself and would set for rabbits and then he would keep them in a pen and feed them until they didn't stink. And it got the gamey taste out of them

Several years ago That was a treat to have possum!! And also they were famous for killing our chickens!! So both problems were solved at one time you ate and you saved the chickens But mostly we caught them and fed them for a while before eating them!

[@puggedpoetry129]

That's what we did. Feeding them takes away that gamey taste

[@ptiaptia7347]

They are a very clean animal, actually, much cleaner than chicken, and pigs. Did you see how they're raised? I saw them in my yard every night from my security cameras. I don't eat them (because am lazy to clean and cook, that's all). Someday when retired and have more time I will try. Squirrels and possums and raccoon eats fruits from my trees every day/NIGHT, all the times. Very clean animal and clean meat. Meat must be very good.
