LyleTV is very proud to announce a special episode of the Napping Gourmet featuring a celebrity guest!

Everyone please join me in welcoming Dogster's own Poet Laureate Angus the Warrior to the show. Angus has written a poem just for us!

Whigles in Kentucky
Are a fortunate lot
ButterBurgers, Easter pizza
And a woodchuck in the pot

So how much spice
Does a woodchuck need?
To be properly seasoned
And fricasseed

Chef Lyle with style
Our Napping Gourmet
Will answer these questions
On the next cook-up day

So gather round
All canine friends
The gravy train
Is round the bend!

Thank you for the introduction, Angus. Today we are indeed cooking with woodchucks! Here at the Napping Gourmet we specialize in recipes for the lazy chef, so grab your Crock-Pots and let's get cooking! 

I like my woodchuck simple.  Add a little salt and pepper and pop your rodent in your handy dandy slow cooker.  Find a sunny spot, curl up for a nice little nap and check on him in about 4 hours. 

Smells great, doesn't it?

For the impatient lazy chef, there is always woodchuck tartare.  I have to warn you, though, this is no place to cut corners.  Be sure your woodchuck is fresh...even if that means going to the trouble of catching it yourself.  A days-old funky groundhog is good to roll in, not to eat. 

Your slow roasted woodchuck goes great with linguini on the side.  I don't know about you, Angus, but I'm drooling too much to talk any more.  Let's eat!
