So last night, since I did not have to work today, I decided to give Beth a break and fire up the grill for our first BBQ of the season. On several occasions, she has called me KennyPig over on her place, Nutwood Junction, so I decided to live up to that name by making Cuy.
Native to South America, Cuy, otherwise know as Guinea Pigs, are replacing chicken as a staple, they are much more environmentally friendly, and can help supplement small farmer incomes.
By the way, in case you’re wondering, roast cuy is delicious, with rich, dark, slightly stringy meat. (And no, it tastes nothing like chicken.)
