Discussion Thread: BBQ Brethren "Soul Food" Throwdown (Non-Quality, Possibly Delinquent Discussion *BE WARNED*)

[deguerre]

That won't help, those farkers are quick as heck and mean.

And they bring their friends...

Let me get this straight. You guys are actually trying to talk me out of going into my suburban back yard and taking out a whole family of racoons with a .22 pistol?

This is not the response that I was expecting.

 

[deguerre]

My Nephew made the mistake of throwing a rock at one once. He thought the racoon was alone...












Of course, it WAS a North Memphis racoon, but still...


Just trying to help a Brethren out.

That would make for a whole heap of fuzzy hats.

At that point, the vermin win

They are mean little jerks, but my dog (German Shorthair Pointer) manages to take 2-3 a year from my backyard plus a couple of opossum!

Just a safety note about coons. If you come across one out during the daylight hours, it probably has rabies. Dusk and dawn are OK.

Looks like my bathroom in the morning trying to fight my way to the sink for a shave!

I think that this is an old wives tale? We have a whole family of them in one of the huge cedar trees in the back yard. They're mostly active at dawn and dusk but we do see them during the day fairly regularly. Though I do suspect that the long summer daylight hours may play a part in that as it usually after 6:00 PM or so that they start stirring.

I am thinking of a different critter for this throwdown. What do you guys think?

Tasty dishes concocted by the world-famous cooks included nutria chili, nutria Ragondin sausage jambalaya and smoked nutria and Andouille sausage gumbo.

Had a raccoon drown my dog in Belize! Dragged her out in the water and held her under till she drowned. Feisty little farkers!

 

[MS2SB]

That must have been either a really big raccoon or a very small dog.

Big Coon, the dog was about 50 lbs, fearless and jumped in the water to go after the coon.

They still paying $5 a tail for those critters on the levees?

 

[K-JUN]

That's right 5 bucks from the state, and I think you can get 3 for the fur.

Those aren't beavers, they are nutria, a large rat-like critter -- AKA, target practice. Picture a 20 pound rat, and that's what a nutria looks like.

Not only are then not protected by any laws, shooting them is encouraged, as they do incredible damage. I have dispatched many of them.
