Title: Bunny Rabbit
Post by: mullet on October 23, 2016, 07:04:57 pm
I thought I'd try a recipe I saw in the newest backwoodsman Magazine tonite since I had a couple of rabbits in the freezer. It sounded good , with cabbage, onion fried with bacon, mushrooms and garlic along with a cup of Jager and two tablespoons of Apple cider vinegar. Let you know how it tastes, be ready in 25 minutes.

Smells good. :P :)

And,,, It was delicious!  ;D Served over a bed of steaming rice.  You can barely taste the Jager, just a hint of it in the Veggies. You only use a half a cup.

Bunny rabbit sounds good!  Got a try rabbit, we ate it growing up but have gotten away from it as a adult. Fifty years has made forget what it tastes like.

That looks good.  Minus the Jager  :D   We raise rabbits for the kids to show in 4H and they do very well with them.  We end up letting them go after they show them.  I just can't bring myself to kill a rabbit that we've raised from a baby.  I might have a change of heart next year after seeing your pictures.

I handle about 40 4-H rabbits every year after the fair.  It's a don't ask, don't tell sort of things.

Some of them end up in my kitchen, too. But the wild ones taste far better.

I agree JW the wild ones are much tastier, but the 4-H bunnies are good too. My daughter in law is a 4-H leader and raises them for our grandkids as well as other kids. She usually buys a bunch at the fair too. Nothing wrong with eating those bunnies Osage. I'm going to tell her about this recipe. She makes rabbit pot pie that's fantastic. She also makes like a poled pork barbecue  (minus the pork) that's really good to. She makes a big pot of it we take to the fair the kids love it, good to know where your food comes from. I do understand how much goes into raising 4-H animals Clint so I know what your saying. That really looks good Eddie
