There was an advisory in Kentucky (closer to the mountains, but also here for the older people who still did things the old way) a few years ago warning against eating squirrel brains (they often ended up in Burgoo, or fried up in peoples' eggs) because a large population of squirrels were infected with rabies and making people sick.
We usually use beef, deer or pork now (last 20 years or so).
I had no idea it was originally Irish...That was surprising to me.
