Uncle Reg's Roast Possum

1. Possum is easy to catch. Hit em wif a rock or a stick when they're up a tree, and you have em in a sack in no time. The yellow bellied goomers is too scared to fight back and they plays dead long enough to grab em.

2. Boil up a peck o water or more, depending on the size of your possum. Dunk your critter in the boiling water an right away pull off his hair n' scrape him clean.

Don't forgit to cut off his fee, his bXXX's, his tail.

Clean out his inards.

3. Put the possum in a heafty jog o salty water and let him cool overnite. Change his water the next day and start boiling him 'til his skin lets a fork pop through easy like. They're ain't no time for cookin' possum cause some is tougher'n others.

4. When the feller is yis right, dry him off and put in a bakin pan, with a bit of pot likker'n some seasoned salt over his belley. 5. When he is brown and toasty, his ready for slicin and servin. We always serve them wit yams.
