This is a recipe that I have only eaten twice in my lifetime. Not that it wasn't good but I just couldn't get over it being roadkill to me even though it truly was not hit and laid by the road. Now I have eaten Squirrel and Rabbit and like them both.I have also eaten goat And cooked those three many times. I hope you enjoy this even though I had a mental problem with it. It is really good.

How To Make my mom's barbecued raccoon

    My Mother would place this in a pressure cooker but I think a slow cooker would suffice. She would add the celery, Sliced onion, and carrots, Garlic, Salt and pepper, and water or beer. She would pressure cook for 5 hours then remove from cooker and debone all the meat. Then add Barbecue sauce and cook for another hour.
