Roasted Fluffly

[Gunner46]

Ya need one good sized Fluffy.

Now, stoke up a small fire in a guarded, hidden, secluded position. (Don't want any of the 'Enemy' to spot your location, and take some incoming...)

Skin & gut with a K-Bar.

Grab any handy stick, if you can find one, else just poke the Fluffy onto yer K-Bar and roast till it ain't raw anymore.

If ya got salt, or pepper, or Texas Pete, or anything to help kill the taste... Slab 'er on there.

Now, hunker back down, chow down, and let the lead fly!!!

Made some pretty good d**m meals on a time or two..........

LOL!! Don't cook him on the K Bar; draws the tmper!! Put the bastard on a stick. Rats are yummy especially if you can find some wild onion, ramps, garlic, or mustard. Cook him up with a side of cat tail roots and some poke salad!

Central Highlands, Aug/Sept 1964..
Ran out of K-rats except for ham and M..fkers.. Found those were good bait for J rats. the four legged type, which bbq up almost like baby goat. Need best marksman for head shot..

Mix catsup, beer, tabasco, pepper, and grape jelly for bbq sauce and have at it. One jungle rat feeds about 2 troops or 6 indigenous personnel, who ever gets there first. Better than eating the ham and m..f..kers.. Follow with peaches and pound cake. Excellent meal.. well, better than pb&j anyway..

Mostly came around the trenchs, alot were around the mess tents, a good # from the privvy. If we coudn't get one there, then we'd just get one out of an aquarium!

I never got hungry enough to eat rats. Bugs, reptiles, grubs, larvae - yes. Rats, no. I hate them. I suppose I could get hungry enough, but I'd rather eat ham and MFs than rats.

 

[pawclaws]

Don't let Gunner tease you. Rat meat is better than squirrel; not as tough, sweeter, and not as greasy as ground hog. It be down right tasty!

 

[Gunner46]

Kinda tastes like chicken....

My Native American brothers (Navajo to most) are quite fond of prairie dog prepared in much the same way as Gunner described. One guy used to bring one wrapped in foil for his lunch sometimes. Reminded me of a skinned chihuahua, but it smelled pretty good.

Now you guys know what those AR-7s packed in life rafts were for!!

 

[Gunner46]

Ya know? 99% of the folks who have read this, think I was kidding!!!!!

SSSHHEEEE... civilians ?????

 

[pawclaws]

LOL@Gunner! You know, I wouldn't doubt it!! They'd probably never believe a man about those damned rice bugs!!

I guess the only thing I ever did eat I couldn't keep down was fried water buffalo intestines. It was cut into rings and fried and I was drinking San Miguel, pretty well oiled and eating that crap by the hands full. I made the mistake of asking what it was and when they told me for some reason I lost it!

Paws..Paws.. Paws....

I've had unidentifiable meal in Hong Kong, Bankok, Okinawa, Po Hang, Inchon, Kowshung, PI and a dozen other places I can't remember. It was all really awsome as long as I didn't ask what it was. (You ever watch the chineese drop live eels in hot oil and fry them up?)
Six months on an atoll in the Indian Ocean eating C and K rations and anything is good.

Brokfut; when we had alert exdercises up at Rickenbacker I'd stop at the in-flight kitchen on the way to work and buy up lunch boxes at about a buck and a quarter each. When we got locked down in the shelter, where I stored them, I could get five bucks a piece for them when they started issuing Ks for lunch! Sounds to me like we have eaten off some of the same plates!
