Personally, I like to get my critter crocked before slaughter.

Kobe Beef - an extra large portion of Kirin Beer - does just fine.

Lobster - a bottle of white wine added to the lower "hydrator" twelve hours before.

Abalone - same as above.

Pig - a half bushel of appeles the the day before - intoxicated and they blow a blue wind....under a night sky as the viseral drops to the ground.

Goat - just slit the troat - and boil and rinse... boil and rinse again. (Same as racoon, possem, and squirrel.)

Sincerely,
Gargoyle
