Rat for dinner?

I'm watching a show on Discovery Channel called Contraband Seized at the Border.  A couple is bringing is some things from Mexico and being checked at the border.
The main question was the value of a grinding machine to process corn for tortillas.  That was OK, used it had a value so it did not have to be declared.  Further inspection though, uncovered another item. Frozen food in a cooler.  Eight rats.  Skinned and cleaned, ready to cook.
In some countries they are considered a delicacy.
Anyone have a favorite family recipe to share?
