I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

that's only 2 steps above buzzard. I do remember a friend selling one to somebody in high school though. they seemed happy to get it..... I wouldn't describe them as high class dining types though.

I sampled some at AWF wild game gathering once, not a fan.

I cleaned one once, going to eat it. That danged ole boar coon smelled horrible.
Never even made one cut on him. Never made it to the kitchen.

Had a friend of mine make jerky out of one in high school. Everyone loved it, but they didn't know it was raccoon. I did not partake.

My aunt used to cook one occasionally with sweet potatoes in the oven. My dad and uncle raved over it, but when asked if we should kill another for them the answer was always no, haha. It was a nostalgia thing for them as they ate them groaning up. I thought it was greasy and so so at best. The potatoes were good. You could certainly eat it if you were hungry.

I've had it cooked several ways. Baked is the most common way it's cooked but I didn't care for it. I've had it made into hash once and it was great but couldn't duplicate it, we tried and the more you'd chew on it the tougher it got.

But yes, there are plenty of people that love eating them. I sale them for $10 each cleaned and can't catch enough to keep up with the demand for them. I have one guy with a standing order for 40 each season!

If I remember correctly there are some glands that need to be removed on a coon in order to make it good for the table!

Had it once at a wild game banquet. It was edible, maybe a 4 on the palatability scale, but it beat the possum by a long shot.

Years ago I trapped a little on the side. I grilled a couple of young coons one night, the best I remember it wasn't bad. I haven't had it since but I would without hesitation if things got bad.

I’ll eat about one every year. Wrapped in bacon, baked in oven. I like the taste. Would eat more if I didn’t have to clean them. Taste similar to sirloin steak.

RiverWood, what's the time and temp on baking? Do you add anything else with it like onions, potatoes and carrots?

Used to eat them pretty regular growing up. My mother usually put them in a pressure cooker for a bit then finished them off in the oven. I worked south Ga. years ago and frequented a bar that would occasionally serve bbq coon on the weekends.

My Granny grew up in the Depression era and I remember her talking about her daddy eating possum.
“Granny, did you ever eat possum,” I asked.
“No, but I’ve eat the taters around one,” she said.
Ol boy near here grew up pretty hard over in Mississippi. My daddy grew up pretty hard in Virginia. Mississippi told my dad “Don, I have eat baked coon before.”
