What are your tastebuds craving? Fried, grilled, smoked or something else?
I like to wrap them in foil on the grill. Salt, pepper, bell peppers, sweet onions, jalapenos and butter. Them little straps come out pretty tasty.
Just anything. I've only had rabbit once, I really don't enjoy shooting them because they are so "cute", but I would like to compile some of the best game recipes for the coming Zombie Apocalypse. What I had was fried. I am a huge fan of smoking meat (travelled to Texas to get my Pitmaker Pit), but never really considered smoking wild meat, as I always thought it would be too dry. Now beef, pork and chicken.... I'm all over smoking that.Quote:

I can put water (or juice) is a pan in the bottom of my smoker that helps keeps moisture in the meat. Now I want something smoked...............
Fried is hard to beat. Get hold of some Kentucky Kernel Seasoned flour. Flour and brown in cast iron skillet. Make up some milk gravy using 1 part milk to 1 part sour cream. Pour gravy over fried rabbit in crockpot and cook on low until tender. All wild and domestic meat rolled and fried in Kentucky Kernel Seasoned flour is just plain “finger licking good”.
Now we're talking....:cool:
I always par boil them before frying by putting them in a pot of water, bringing it to a boil, turning off the stove and letting them tenderize in their broth. Then I'll take them out and give them a buttermilk bath while I season the flour and make a batch of biscuits. Then dredge them up and fry them. When they're done I'll put the heat on medium low add some flour and a thinly sliced onion to make a roux with a little of the fry oil and tidbits left in the pan, Then add the rabbit broth and stir constantly to make gravy. The gravy formula is 442. 4 tablespoons of oil, 4 tablespoons of flour, 2 cups of broth.
Dang I'm getting hungry
Zombie Apocalypse recipes? Hehe in that case I'd say hold rabbit over fire...

Eat em up
For something simple and fast: cut rabbit up and add to salted water containing onions. Boil 10-15 minutes. drain, season and fry until tender. remove rabbit from pan. add flour and water to drippings and simmer until gravy is done.

They all sound pretty tasty though.
You need a case of "Slap Ya Momma" for the Apocalypse. Makes fried stuff better.

It now has a place of honor on the spice shelf......As for Rabbit ??
6 hour brine, then smoked with black cherry, occasionally mopped
with Teriyaki sauce.
Old thread, but I've always heard throw the little hoppers in a pressure cooker. Not near as tough when they come out.
Hasenpfeffer
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 3 cups white vinegar
- 3 cups water
- 1 tablespoon pickling spice
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 2 bay leaves
- 8 whole cloves
- 1 rabbit (2-1/2 pound), skinned, cut into serving-size pieces
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 to 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup sour cream
- In a large nonmetallic bowl, combine onion, vinegar, water and seasonings.
- Add rabbit pieces; cover and refrigerate for 48 hours, turning occasionally.
- Remove meat; strain and reserve marinade. Dry meat well; coat lightly with flour. In a large skillet, melt butter; brown meat well. Gradually add 2 to 2-1/2 cups reserved marinade. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 30 minutes.
- Remove meat to a warm platter. Add sour cream to pan juices; stir just until heated through. Spoon over rabbit.
If I didn't know any better, I'd swear this was carrots!
The only hasenpfeffer recipe I've seen had vanilla wafers in it. This sounds much better.

When I was a kid we shot cottontails all winter. Limit was 6 each, couple of us would come home with limits easy. We’d carry a lidded 5 gallon bucket in the truck with salt water in it to put them in after we dressed them. Come home cut them up and freeze. My mom just fried them up like chicken and made cream gravy and mashed potatoes. I’ve eaten a hundred of them that way I bet.
French cassoulet is always good.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...45d1aaeb26.jpg

My dad always called this stew, but it's more of a tomato based soup.
Boil/shred or debone/cut raw rabbits
A couple cans of diced tomato
A can or two of tomato sauce
potatoes
Can of carrots and can of green beans the last 10 minutes
Onions
Garlic
Worchester sauce
Hot sauce
Let the liquid, rabbit, and potatoes low boil for an hour until the potatoes are done
Goes great with cornbread and obviously can be done with venison
Fried in a cast iron skillet or smoked then wrapped in tinfoil seasoned with butter for 4-5 hours…
