Answer 1

BARBECUED BEAVER
1 plump young beaver
2 onions, sliced
1/2 c. vinegar
1 apple, peeled & halved
3/4 c. catsup
1 tsp. dry mustard
1/4 c. granulated sugar
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp. salt
3 drops Tabasco sauce

Remove all fat from the beaver. Boil beaver with apple halves for 1 hour over medium heat. Drain and wipe dry. Transfer beaver to roasting pan and cover with sliced onion. Combine remaining ingredients in bowl, then pour over beaver.

Bake in 350 degree preheated oven for 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Should be basted with the sauce about every 15 to 20 minutes. As sauce mixture thickens add water so it remains the consistency of gravy.

Answer 2

SWEET PICKLED BEAVER

2 beaver, skinned and cleaned
1/2 tsp. cloves
1 tbsp. salt
2 tbsp. dry mustard
1 c. pineapple juice
Juice and grated rind of 1 lemon
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. vinegar
2 tsp. soda
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. dry white wine or apple juice

Wash beaver thoroughly with salt water, then let soak overnight in enough cold water to cover, adding 1/2 cup vinegar and 1 tablespoon salt to the water. The next day, remove the beaver from the brine, wash and cover with a solution of 2 quarts of water to 2 teaspoons soda. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes. Drain and rinse the beaver then place it in a clean pot. Add water just to cover. Sprinkle mixed pickling spice on top, bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes. Drain and rinse beaver. Pat dry and place on roaster. Mix mustard, spices, sugar, wine, and fruit juices and spread over beaver. Cover and roast at 325 degrees until tender, basting frequently.
