When preparing bvr besides catching the bvr you must when skinning and cleaning bvr make sure none of castor, oil sacks or urine contact meat. That aside proceed
Take one bvr cleaned and cut up in one inch cubes. Brown bvr meat in skillet with canola oil. Take browned bvr meat and place in slow cooker and add:
Apple juice or orange juice; one cup
Salt and pepper to your own taste
Garlic if you want depending on your taste.
Fresh garlic four cloves sliced thinly or grated. Can use dry garlic need more for flavor : suggested, 2 tsps.
Vegetables can be added or made seperately: Potatoes and carrots can be added with meat right away. Tender vegetables can be put in one hour before finishing cooking. Everything can be added right away but will cause some of vegetables to be mushy.
Suggested cooking time 8 hours on low. Can be adjusted for your slow cooker and how high of heat put on.
I add everything if im leaving early to trap and when i come home late in day the slow cooker stew tastes just GREAT and satisfying...Burp!

I tried to cook one last season and 3 hrs in the crock pot wasn't enough. The flavor was good, but it was awful chewy.

I know this is an old post but which beavers do you eat?
One's that you dispatch as they are fresher?
The ones that have drowned maybe a day or 2 old? About a 48 hr check?
Just dont want to save a bad one and ruin the batch when I mix or grind em.
Thanks


Ya can't miss fur if yur traps are out somewhere.
Or so I've been told.

I cook and eat beavers that have been submerged under ice water for a week without any problems yet. It is Alaska, so the water is cold. Your mileage may vary.

These beavers have been trapped. I cannot tell the difference between one I shot today and one I pulled up off the bottom that has been there all week. They eat the same and taste the same to me.

I would think that you would get somewhere near that many days if your water is cold. I eat them all.

Beaver Pot Roast and BBQ Beaver sandwiches are my favorites.

Crock pot, cut up beaver, add bbq sauce and a little water, cook on low all day, pull meat off bone, add a little bbq sauce, jam it between some bread and you have a great sandwich.


My Super Wide will pull your broken down 4 stroke, up a hill backwards, with you on it!

Fantastic thank you Super Wide.
The water was/is cold. Will wait a couple of weeks for ice to get thicker than I can try to get some more.. excited for my first beavers & don't want to waste any of em..
Thanks again
