Nice recipe, I'm a big garlic fan.

But I'm a bit wary of marinating the rabbit in the WWV.

It's a delicate taste, wouldn't that overpower it?

I was wary and it was the first ime I did it - was pleasantly suprised that it tamed the 'gamey' edge but kept the flavour, if that makes sense. Mind you I only marinaded for about 6 to 8 hours.

I like the gamey bit though, I might try it without the marinade, shouldn't change the outcome too much.

If this is part of a subtle campaign to convert me from vegetarianism (what with Alison and Rob R I'm sure you're in league) all I can say is it's working...

without preaching to much i think it's easier to morally justify eating that rabbit than a kfc chicken anyday. I think vegetarianism is far better than eating intensively farmed meat

I will do the pigion one and also the video of the rabbit.
We are going to have our rabbit on the BBQ on sunday, goes very well with my home made broad bean pesto yum yum.
Jonnyboy do you hang your rabbit, I find more of my lot eat it when its only 24hrs ish old.

Can't be preaching if it's completely factual, which that statement is.

I'm in a bit of a bad mood about vegetarianism and non-thinking meat eaters at the moment, but it's a subject for another thread and possibly a sturdier keyboard.

Pricey, I want to know about your broad bean pesto too! Can you put it up in the recipes thread?

Not on purpose, I might leave it a day or so after paunching before I skin it but only because I'm too busy/lazy to do it straight away.

Delia Smith does a lovely rabbit in Cider, and Keith Floyd does my all time favourite, cooked in Gooseberry or elderflower champagne.

I've settled on the following.

Country pate for two with the offal from the rabbit and pigeon (already made)

Confit of rabbit leg (in the oven)

Seared pigeon breast with red wine gravy and three root mash.

Saddle of rabbit with garlic.

I also have a stock pot bubbling with the de-breasted pigeon carcass, and the rib cage plus shoulders from the rabbit (briefly roasted first)

That should keep us all full until monday night at least, and all from 1 rabbit and 1 pigeon.

What fat are you going to use for the confit?
