Coon and Sweet Taters
Put the coon in a large stock pot and fill it with water until the coon is covered. Liberally season the water with all of the ingredients listed above except the Cayenne pepper(a little goes a long way).
Boil over medium heat for 2-3 hours or until the coon starts coming off the bone.
While the coon is cooking wrap each sweet potatoes in foil and bake it in the oven at 400 degrees until soft.
The next step is individual preference. You can place the coon in the middle of a turkey pan and place the unwrapped sweet potatoes around the coon and put it in the oven to brown the coon. Or, you can put it in the fridge until the next day and let the flavors really blend with the coon; then put the sweet potatoes and coon in the turkey pan and brown the coon in the oven.
As my friend says, "When that coon juice and that sweet tater juice start gettin together, that's when things get good."
