The Hmong got all the squirrels before me. I'm thinking surplus Norway rats might make a suitable substitution.

This is what I use for snowshoe hare pot pie, but squirrel can be used instead, I use pre-made pie crusts

2 tablespoons butter
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup sliced celery
1 cup chopped sweet pepper
1 cup chopped carrots
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup vegetable or chicken broth
3/4 cup half-and-half
2 1/2 cups cooked, chopped rabbit meat
1/4 cup fresh parsley

Heat oven to 400°F.

To make filling, melt butter in large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add onion, celery, sweet pepper and carrots, and sauté for 5 to 7 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.

Stir in flour, thyme, salt and pepper, and cook for 3 minutes. Whisk in broth and half-and-half, and cook until thick and bubbly. Stir in rabbit meat and parsley.

To assemble pot pie, butter 2-quart casserole dish or 8-by-8-by-2-inch baking dish.

Turn pastry dough out onto floured surface and roll out 1 inch larger than dish. Pour hot filling into dish and place pastry on top. Use fork to crimp edges, flute with your fingers, or just leave it as is for a rustic-style crust. Use sharp knife to cut slits in crust to allow steam to escape.

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbling. Let cool for 20 minutes before serving.

In the 70's I had a buddy in West Yellowstone who could make a meat pie out of anything, including roadkill. We were fishing guides trying to hang out long enough to shoot ducks before the big freeze, so we ate alot of that stuff. Rabbits, grouse, ducks and even whitefish.

When you're broke and have to eat....your cash goes for beer.
