Method

After you singe and gut the possum, scrape off the remaining hair, scrub the possum with a stiff brush, and rinse it thoroughly. Cut off any excess fat and cut the possum into pieces while the bacon fries in a large pot. Add the celery, one of the onions, and the bell pepper to the pot. Fry until lightly browned. Sprinkle the possum with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add the possum and water
