Beaver tail was a delicacy amongst mountain men as it's a great source of fat, which can be hard to find in the wild. I simply grill the tail over high heat, crack it open, and use the fatty goodness that's inside the tail the same way chefs use bone marrow. It makes for a very delicious appetizer.
