Cooking your hunted meat?

[dartanyon]

I am interested in how you all cook your meat when hunting? I think maybe I'm pretty boring by resorting to my camp ovens (cast iron pots), frypan and maybe a spit for poultry. My meat is restricted to rabbit, ducks, snakes, fish, shellfish/crustaceans. Anything bigger and it would be wasted.
What are some meats you eat from hunting and how do you cook it?

Because of the distance that I need to walk to get into an area that I can hunt, I rarely carry heavy cooking equipment with me. An esbit stove, fuel and SS cup are my kitchen. However, when I hunt quail with the bow and get lucky, I will bare the breast of one, get a small fire going, run a sharp stick through the breast and slow cook it like a spit, then add some pepper and enjoy a bite before heading back to the vehicle to get the rest of the birds, if any, refrigerated.

Dartanyon-

Sounds like you're the one with the interesting diet! I like to cook fish by splitting them down the back bone, lay the fish out flat, pin it open with lateral skewers, then hang it on a sharpened forked stick over the smoke of my campfire. Rub in some salt and a wee bit o' sugar and you got yourself a campfire treat to remember!

One of my next creative culinary campfire goals is to bake a bird-in-clay meal. Pack your bird or other small critter in clay and bake in the coals of your fire. When it's done the feathers, skin and whatever pulls off the animal when you take the clay off, leaving bare meat and bones. I've had this before, but it was in a restaraunt on an Indian reservation and had been slightly modified from the primitive version.
