Thread: I will never turn my nose up at eating rabbit again

Shot a couple of rabbits @muckos place on sunday night to blood the marlin model 60. The other half roasted them slowly last night and everyone in the house liked it heaps so I definitely have to get out for more rabbit hunts, picking the left over bits off the bones as I type

First time trying rabbit, bit of a challenge to get off the bloody bone, but still good

They are good. I'll get ticked off by the troops if I don't bring any home.

Stew them and all the meat falls off the bones

plenty more here to bowl over @hunter308 @hunter270

Too right mate we will be back out again to do some more bunny busting but I really do need to change that scope I have on the 22 at the moment

Yep boil them in heavily salted n peppered water until the meat falls from the bones (2hrs)



Cover a Pizza base with cranberry/apricot sauce/jam, some Bri or cheese to taste and sliced spring onion

Arrange the soft meat around the pizza and drizzle a little more cranberry/apricot sauce on the meat

Cook/bake until ready

You will never have left over pizza

Its even nice cold if you have made two or three pizzas to take for work lunches, I saved for my first home by eating a diet of Rabbit/Goat and rice.

Smoked rabbit is good too.

I actually want to try cooking some rabbit on my charcoal BBQ to get that smokey taste happening

Mmmmmm smoked rabbit sounds delicious

I have a bradley smoker, but no rabbits... Small issue. Might try and sort this issue over the small break ahead.

I'm picking wet brining first, then in the smoker?

Never put one in a Hungi they are gross Crockpot slow cooked is the way or roast in the oven.

Yes, then a rub with brown sugar.

I remember my mother telling me how you used to be able to buy rabbits at the butchers back in the 1930's & 40's.

Boned out and minced, they make really good pies. A few hours in a casserole during the winter with heaps of vegies.
