Has anyone heard of Bear Gravy ?

I am invited over at neighbors for dinner, they're cooking meatloaf with bear gravy?

What the hell ?

@corlin
I see there's a twitter user by that name. Maybe he is coming to dinner ;)

@corlin
Once I was served a dish, but not told what it was until after eating it.

Tasted like fishy squirrel.

Muskrat!

Trust no one!

@ceorl @corlin someone forgot or didn't know how to prep that. There's a crucial first step to cooking any animal with musk glands. I won't describe it here. Fairly easy, absolutely essential, and probably not worth it -- eat something else. Raccoon, opossum, muskrat.

@b4cks4w @corlin
It was my landlady at the time. I think some local trapper hooked her up with it but she had no experience with game.

I don't think it was musk though. It wasn't totally horrible, just a bit fishy like "This lives in water!"

I don't eat anything that can look me in the eyes anymore now anyway.

@ceorl @corlin sounds like a (partial) gland got missed. But yeah, why. Eat a squirrel. A bean burger. Some cardboard.

@b4cks4w @corlin
That's quite possible. Definitely not something I would want to repeat ;)

I remember having a mouthgasm for some moose steaks tossed right on hot coals though ;)
