4 cup warm cooked rice

 Method :
Combine salt, pepper, garlic powder and flour. Dredge squirrels in flour mixture.
Cook bacon in a heavy skillet over medium heat until browned. Fry squirrel pieces in bacon grease until medium brown. Add remaining ingredients and reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook for about 1 1/2 hours or until squirrel pieces are tender.
Serve with warm rice.

Comments: Anything fried, squirrel included, tastes pretty good. The squirrels are first fried and then simmered in liquid until tender. Young squirrels taste much better than old ones.
