Thread: Processing game to avoid food poisoning

We eat a lot of rabbit, always try to shoot it from the chest forward. I then sleeve skin it from the rear to just beyond the start of the ribs, split the back legs and then cut it in half at the front of the back steaks. Leave all of the diaphragm as is, and the guts from the rear stay attached to that as well, and throw that away for the hawks. Then leave the complete back half to air and cool, and in to the fridge for a day or 2 before freezing. Pillow cases are great, and make sure they have cooled down before putting in the chilly bin with ice bottles.
