I tried this recipe last night with some thawed beaver meat on my camp stove (no power) and thought I would report: EXCELLENT! I have fried beaver before, but this is an exceptional concoction. Here it is so you won't have to hunt it:
WA’s Chicken Fried Beaver
1 beaver, cut to serving portions
2 Italian sweet onions
4 oz. saltine crackers "1 sleeve"
1/2 cup shortening
1/4 cup bacon drippings
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon paprika
salt & pepper to taste
Parboil beaver in salted water with onions until tender. Heat shortening and bacon grease in a large heavy skillet. Mix thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper, rub into beaver, coat well. Crush crackers to fine crumbs. Roll beaver pieces through cracker crumbs to coat well. Cook real slow with pan 1/2 covered until browned and tender. Serve.
Serves 6-8

I finished eating and ran outside and slapped the first fellow I came to! :rotf:
