    hare backsteaks......season and fry same as would do with venison...you will not be able to tell the difference between it and good venison other than size.

    There are several ways, and seasoning is necessary as said rabbits do `t have much taste itself, and how to turn that gamy smell into a particular taste is matter.

    We try to eke out our home kill beef with rabbit once a week or two. Cube it up and put in a weak vinegar/water mix for an hour or so. The soak in coconut milk overnight in the fridge. Next day make Thai Chicken curry just replacing chicken with rabbit. Cook up the Jasmine rice on the stove till the water has boiled off, then onto the log burner on the cake cooling rack for 20 min to dry out the rice and make it super fluffy. Will take a pic the next time I cook it up.

    Nice! Should live around waters....
    Btw, Do you know what is the answer I hate most when people telling me their age?...Is telling me which one of those 12 animals they belong to. I will need to use both hands to count the series. But, some people they can immediately figure out the date of birth.

    I am looking forward to it. I see you sir must be in farm operation, may I ask what is the current farm gate price for a sheep, age around 3 yo? Thanks

    I farm beef only, but I believe Lamb is going for about $5/kg on the hoof. That's about $100 for the average weight lamb in a few months. A sheep farmer babe able to chime in about now
