Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 2962610 United Kingdom 10/09/2011 05:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am not a jewish so ditto. What I am is a regular person who cannot afford to let animals destroy my garden. IF these animals are good to eat then I will happily harvest them. I am NOT a touchy feely animal "rightist" BUT if there is no good eating i would rather scare them away. THAT SAID. Should fox be cooked like squirrel (quick fried) or treated like Hare? Hung and aged untill palatable ? Again I am serious here folks. Thanks |

htp User ID: 977661 United States 10/09/2011 05:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Gut, skin, and cut up the fox, just like you would any other small game. Brine the meat for twelve hours prior to cooking by whatever method you prefer. Make brine from water, salt, and other seasonings. Make sure the meat is submerged. The brine soak removes the gamey flavor and helps tenderize the meat. |
Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 2962610 United Kingdom 10/09/2011 05:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've heard that it tastes really strong. I dunno if it's actually legal to kill them for food though. Quoting: Lime Flavoured Redux Thanks! I know fox hunting (foxes, hounds and members of parliament) etc are illegal (grin) BUT (and thanks for noticing a distinction) I have a feral inner city fox destroying my veg garden. I HAVE to get rid of it, IF i kill it I would prefer to eat it. Thanks so much !! |

I will try this and thank you so much! |

The hunting rules are complex as hell anyway, and very few people are ever charged under them, so I wouldn't worry too much lol. |
computer says no User ID: 1509535 United Kingdom 10/10/2011 12:52 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm a vegetarian, doesn't like cruelty to animals.. but foxes are not cuddly loving pets, are on a genocide mission against hens (& our eggs for breakfast!), & they wander round late at night in the city just making a mess, standing in the middle of the road & are a potential danger & a menace. I've seen what foxes are capable off at first hand. I say lift the ban on fox hunting & kill them all.. well.. most..of the them. |

Fox Eater User ID: 40455497 United States 05/24/2013 11:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Soak meat in a half and half vinegar bath with water for twelve hours with garlic and tomatoes, this tenderizes and begins building flavor. Always add plenty of black pepper as it cooks to add to overall flavor. Cook at 200* at four to five hours , but add more garlic turning often. Fox is a tough meat that needs special considerations, but like venison, is well worth the effort. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 2124960 United States 05/24/2013 11:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The native people in Alaska still live off the land (and sea) in many areas. They eat mostly a meat and fish diet, but I've never heard of them eating fox even though there are lots of foxes around. In fact I asked someone who is from one of those areas and he said maybe the interior Indians do because they don't have much else, but apparently it's not that good but won't hurt you if you eat it, unless it has rabies, maybe that is why people don't eat them. |
