So far, no luck
I have this great recipe for porcupine
Spent the day in the bush but didnt see one. No rabbits either Back at it tomorrow! I plan on hunting SOMETHING in every month of 2021. This month is porcupine. Not sure what next month will be. I havent thought that far yet.... |
Porkies are everywhere around here. Hard on the trees.
Not many rabbits though, and usually we have lots. Haven't seen even one to check the color phase & make me think winter is done........:thinking-006: |
Saw one east of Sherwood today. Man your pallet must be made of leather!
|
Head out along the creek bottoms..... I saw lots this November while chasing Roosters ...... luckily always managed to keep the dog away
|
That's awesome. Look forward to hearing what each month will be. Maybe include the tasty cooking plan do love me a porkpine stew n potatoes.

If your goal is to kill one in February and you don't, I guarantee you'll run one over in March.
What did you get last month? |

Heres a thought: If Randy takes some pictures to go with his escapades, he could publish it with recipes as "Huntinstuff's Culinary Calendar"! :sHa_shakeshout: |

Lol "A Critter In Every Pot" A good campaign slogan. Larry Darryl and Darryl |
A meal that comes with it's own toothpicks.
What's not to like? |

Much respect Sir,
I have always wanted to try porcupine but not to the point of blasting one. I have had the thought of now what? when thinking about shooting one. |
Roland Welker from the last season of Alone bbq’ed a porcupine and it looked amazing considering how rudimentary the “bbq” was. Threw it whole, right into the fire.
And his line was classic- as he was chewing on it he called it a fat, greasy, bastard. Lol... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Id Maui marinade it in an InstantPot
But i gotta get one first Once you skin it tho, always burn the hide/quills. Dont need animals getting hurt afterwards |
I really enjoy porcupine. Good luck. My problem is cleaning then I aways hurt myself lol.

Good luck in your search, I have seen 2 in the last 10+ years around the Hinton/GC area. Sounds like creeks in the prairies are the place to look. |
July or August could be gopher and a recipe on how to make pemmican.

One porcupine
One bottle of Maui Marinade Some onion Sprinkle of salt Quartered up and put it in the Instant Pot Served with fried potatoes and asparagus I will definitely do that again. It was tender, has a bit of flavour like minty pine (not sure how else to describe it Next time I think I might use mint sauce, like you would do with lamb I think next month will be marinated beaver cubes and fettucini alfredo |
Start skinning a porcupine like a beaver, from the belly.
Stretch the hide like a beaver and dry. Load the dried hide as a trap in a place that if an intruder comes in the hide slaps the perp in the leg or arse. tip of the day: A single small quill makes a great indicator on a fly line or bigger quill used a float for still fishing with bait. The giant african porcupine quills make great floats for bigger baits. A fish can pull a quill down easily with little resistance. |

There is a strict "shoot on sight" order for porcupines around here. |

I'm glad there is one fewer.

If you've ever had to pull quills out of a horse or a dog nose, you'll know what that's about. Grizz |

Just curious what made it into the pot in March and what's the plan for April?
