Notes: Best to obtain an opossum. Pen it and feed it milk and cereal for 10 days.
Clean the carcass, as you would a pig, by scalding and scraping.
Also remove eyes and close lids. Remove red glands in small of back and under each foreleg.. Place a slab of wood in mouth to hold it open. Skewer legs in to position, by pulling forelegs forward and pulling hind legs into a crouching position..
