i was in the butcher earlier buying some steak (my vegetarian wife married a man so i bought 2 and some liver obv) when i noticed a low price on rabbits. i bought a whole skinned and gutted rabbit for 3 quid.
what the funk do you do with a rabbit, what do you serve it with or as and how is it cooked?
ps, i know i could use google but i thought i would see what the forumites could suggest.

In a casserole. They tend to be quite fatty and bony though.0

this one looks very lean, im suprised by how dark the meat looks. im a big fan of caserole type food, basicly enything in one pot which can and should be eaten with a spoon.0

Pie with a suet crust pastry , good with a pigeon in there as well and some eggs and stuff.

Well, because you are a man, there is only one way to eat it, IMO.

Spanish know what to do with wabbit and game. Never rated wabbit over here till I went over there on holiday years ago and had it.
Summat like that would be a decent base and pointer: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/2601/spa ... -stew.aspx ...cut the tom sauce out for me though.
Dun't get more simplez than something like: http://www.recipes4us.co.uk/Poultry%20a ... __ht__.htm
But Nick's meat fest pie sounds like a good deal if you can get some game tomorrow.0 -

Actually that first one with nice smoked paprika will probably be an absolute star.
I might well be having a butchers in teh butchers myself at this rate.0 -
sheepsteeth - I know real men can make fire to cook with. But as I said, it's unnesscery! (sp?)
Seriously though, strip the meat from the bone, and BBQ it. LOVELY! As everyone knows, a proper wood-cooked (none of this gas / coal crap! ) meal is the best tasting meal you will get! 8)Boo-yah mofo

I had a rabbit curry once, it was a kind of rabbit balti. Lovely!0

I Love rabbit! Really nice lean meat. If you are bbq'ing, make sure you marinade well (plenty of oil to keep it from drying out)
Otherwise, I would stick it in a stew....cook up some real good quality smokey bacon or pancetta, then fry the rabbit in the bacon fat until browned. Add a load of shallots, carrots, garlic, thyme. Bit of flour, stock and wine. Bubble away for a couple of hours and jobsagoodun!
ps, if your not squeemish, keep some of the joints with the bones in the stew. Adds to the flavour.0 -
I love rabbit too....
great in pies, stews etc, but also roasted....my favourite is the confit style of cooking, where you give it a good rub with salt and pepper and garlic, then leave it in the fridge overnight.
then...brush off all the salt etc and slam that wabbit in the oven at about 120c and leave it in there for about 6 hours!
Just keep checking it and when it is as soft as you want it, take it out....but basically anywhere between 2 and 10 hours is doable....
Yum.
Also good if there is a lot of it...you can stick it in a tupperware, cover it in the fat that rendered off, and that will keep in the fridge for a few weeks....to reheat...just get it back in the oven and then do your roast tatties in the fat that re-melts....Whenever I see an adult on a bicycle, I believe in the future of the human race.

Fatty? Never.
Theya er great meat, cholesterol free and virtually no fat. Little nutritional value though, apparaently.
Mrs BJB marindaes a jointed one in lemon and thyme and garlic overnight, then pan fries or roasts then serves with chips OR,
They make a great curry!
I've got some more reciped somewhere, I'll dig them out.0
