Sweetwater Jaycees Cat Recipes

The key to a great katbob is the marinade. Cat meat can be fairly tough, and generally will have a medium gamey, slightly sour flavor to it. The acidity in the pineapple juice will soften the meat up, while the oil and soy give it great flavor, and the agave nectar sweetens it up. Mix all of your liquid ingredients well, and add salt and pepper to taste (3 tablespoons of salt, and two tablespoons of pepper will work well for the marinade). Add crushed garlic cloves to taste. Put the cat in the bag and marinate for AT LEAST 24 hours in the fridge. 48 or more hours is recommended.

After the meat has marinated and is ready to cook, cut your vegetables and pineapple into kebab sized bites. If you’re using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 1/2 an hour prior to skewering to avoid fire. Alternate meat and veggies. These can sit for a few hours prior to cooking.

Prior to throwing them on the grill, give a little sprinkle of salt and pepper. The grill should be very hot. Rotate frequently to ensure even cooking and reduce the amount of char. Continue rotating for 10-15 minutes and serve.
