Smoked Baby Seal
1 (5 to 8-pound) seal roast, trimmed neatly
1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 cup Italian dressing
1 tablespoon cayenne red pepper
1 cup salt
1 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon pepper
1 cup chopped onions
1-2 cloves garlic (minced)
Put seal in large container; cover with mixture of all remaining ingredients. (Can slice holes in meat so it can soak inside better, or pierce
completely with fork.) Cover good; soak overnight or about 10 hours. Rotate often, about every 2 or 3 hours to marinate.
Put on smoker and let smoke for 6 hours; turn and smoke 4 more hours or until tender.
This recipe also works well with fish.

If a metal garbage can is too small of a container, would it still be considered a baby seal? Also, does the seal's head add to the flavor during the
smoking process, or is it safe to remove it and keep intact to use as a garnishment?

Here in Canada we traditionally kill the little bastards too!
We look forward to our annual "club baby seal day" with much gusto.
from:
http://pages.sbcglobal.net/bryanbaskin/clubbing.html
Nuke Baby Seals for Jesus....
The Objective Presentation of Baby Seal Clubbing
I have searched the world wide web over and have yet to find a page that suits my needs... a page about clubbing baby seals without the environmental
whining or the obviously slanted viewpoints. So I wrote my own. An unbiased presentation of the method and means of clubbing helpless, innocent baby
seals.
Here, a seal is dragged from its mother. I'm sure that in a larger picture, she would look none too pleased. How does a mother seal express her
displeasure? What about the baby? I'm sure that's what all of the screaming is all about... It'll end soon.
In the above montage, "sealers" are using a long picklike tool to both separate and then kill the seals. (I have been told that this tool is called a
"gaff") Although usually lethal, occasionally the seals are skinned alive. This, i'm sure, is quite painful and an unpleasant experience. The little,
white fuzzy ones don't seem to be moving very fast... maybe they want to be clubbed? I doubt it, but Mother Nature is an odd one.
I wish i had one of those pick thingies. They look cool.
Here is another example of a helpless seal being dragged to certain doom. This man seems to be enjoying his work. Many nations now allow the clubbing
of baby seals including Canada and Norway.
Evidently nothern fishermen with their big boats can't compete with the fuzzy little devils, so they like to see bashed seal skulls. In fact at one
point they would pay $0.20 per seal. Sounds like easy money to me.
The meat used to be used as did the skins, but now the primary reasons seals are killed are for their penises (used in Chinese aphrodesiacs) and for
enjoyment. (This doesn't seem to be the case in Canada. Hmm, anyone elsewhere care to comment?) Maybe I should take a vacation to Norway...
Yes, in fact i should check out the club scene in the far north.
How can you not club a face like that?
I don't know... sometimes the idea of clubbing innocent animals to a screaming, bloody death calms me. Being a fourth year engineering student, i need
some source of solace in my life. Sometimes it just makes me hungry. I don't know.
Maybe its just engineering students who have a certain fascination with seal clubbing. You'd be surprised how often the suject of seals and impact
testing somes up in casual conversation.
Since i'm not one to impose my views upon others, i'll let each of you decide for yourself how you feel about this growing economic and recreational
activity.

In searching titles, I laughed my head off when I read it. I figured it would be great for reading the 'responses'. And sure enough. You can depend
on this forum for diverse opinions.

They rise readily to the fly and contrary to common belief are ferocious fighters. I have seen them tail walk for yards at a time.
You have to watch out for the sharks however who love to take them off your line before you can land them.
I could never figure out what to do with the eye balls, so now on rare occasions use them in instead of olives in my martinis. This is a real
conversation piece and is great for picking up chicks. Those eyes really get to you, warm the heart etc.

A few years ago, I beat one to death with the bumper jack off my boat. After I tore it apart I stuffed a handful of it in my bong and tried like hell
to lite the gooey stuff but, you cant.
So, regardless of what these guys above say, you cant smoke a baby seal.

LOTS of things to do with a seal.....
True seal story...kind of..
During the blizzard of the century, a snowmobiler in Alaska had trouble starting his rig, so he got it into his pickup and hauled it to town to see
his mechanic buddy.
The driver gets out, the fur on his parka hood and his moustache frozen white with his breath....says to the mechanic..."It won't run a lick."
The mechanic takes a look and turns to the snowmobiler..."Looks like you've blown a seal." "Nope", says the driver as he wipes off his moustache,
"that's just frost."
Summanus....ancient Roman Nightly Thunder God. He liked refrieds too.

Oh, I was thinking of something else.
Actually, when they are on the menu, most people compare the flavor to french poodle, the younger ones, of course. Not those chewy old ones.
