Naming critters

Course ya have to name a critter. Otherwise you wold go crazy figuring out who gets what. Seriously.. we named everything. Cute little story. We had to get my daughter a horse. When I came home one day and there she is riding the eating steer across the field at a gallop. That darn steer was ok with a piece of bailing twine in its mouth for reins and no saddle. That steer was also a local celebrity. Had its picture in the paper. We used to pasture it in the front field next to the road.. Had a wash(pronounced warsh)tub for water. Well, when it got a bit hot and the bugs came out it would knock over the wash tub and wear it on it's horns. Kept the bugs off and it's head was shaded...till my daughter went for a ride anyway. The was one good eatin piece of meat...after the deed was done o'course!

Billy and I were going to start the restaurant up, but skeet and Rubicon want to do all the fun stuff while Billy and I do the work, so we decided to go on strike before it ever started. Until they decide to help with the work we're not going to start, so you have to talk them into helping with the work portion of this.

Ok guys, we must have a fair division of labor here. I think it should work like this.

You guys go out and shoot the game, find good recipes and cook them. Find and cook some good side dishes and dessert recipes as well. Set a nice table and serve everything with a lovely bottle of wine.

I'll do my part and come and have dinner every night.

Sounds fair to me.

Oh GOB,

When you guys actually go out and bash a critter on the head with a rock and kill it, I'll be happy to cook it.

Just let me know when that happens, ok?

Also, just to be clear, I'm not talking a fieldmouse or a squirrel or something. Let's put some challenge into this. Go get me a sabertooth tiger or a mastadon and then we'll talk.

So, I guess we're back to my original plan.

You guys go out and harvest the game (no rock crushing required) and then cook it up and serve it nicely with a good bottle of wine. No need to stomp the grapes yourself, you can buy the wine at the store. I'm nothing if not benevolent.

I, in turn, will do my part by enjoying a great meal and applauding the cooks at the end.

Really, I can't see how that plan could be any better. In the absence of any mastadons or saber tooth tigers, it will just have to do.

By the way, skeet, how do you know what a saber tooth tiger would taste like. Do you have a time machine you're not telling the rest of us about?

And, lest we forget, the cooking skills of the cavepeople weren't all that advanced. I'm guessing "throw it on the fire and char it" was the best they could do. Doesn't sound all that appetizing to me.

Throw it on the fire and char it is about how blackened cajun anything goes

Besides some of the best meals I have ever cooked have been done on the fire.

I won't deny you can cook a great meal over a fire. I'm just saying that cavepeople probably didn't have spices and regulated temperatures and all that sort of thing.

As to the cajun food, I'm from Michigan. We don't eat all that much cajun food up here.

Is that Nemo?

We do eat fish up here, and even some sushi on occasion. Fresh caught fish from the Great Lakes is pretty darn good.
