Haskell_Hunter Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I just soak a dozen donuts in crappy beer. At least that way if the bear doesn't come around I can eat beer donuts. Sapere aude.

BHC Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 (edited) I used less for this test batch. I used 3 packs of mini marshmellows, 1 bottle of maple syrup, 1/2 pound of sugar, and 2 packs of grape Jello-O mix I placed the marshmellows, and syrup in a baking tin, and used a double broiler, and stirred from time to time, then I took it off and placed on the burner, once it was mostly melted I put in the sugar and Jello-O mix. I have it in my garage once cooled off I will place it in the freezer. I will put it out tomorrow, and will check on it next Friday, if it works then I will do it again. If you make it yourself, use a disposable baking tin, use store brand stuff bears don't know the difference, also keep an eye on it, once that maple syrup boils and if it spills over it can be a PIA to clean.

Matty Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Just leave all that out there, let the bears make their own damn candy! lol “I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target, but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature’s way of fang and claw and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow.” – Fred Bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haskell_Hunter Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 That must have stunk to high hell when you were cooking it all up. If you don't shoot a bear, at least you'll have the satisfaction of knowing you probably killed it with heart disease. Sapere aude. Audeamus.

I agree and thought of the same thing, this stuff is like cement...I could see a tree rat stuck in it, and bear chopping on him !!!
