View Full Version : Cooking advice needed.
Mr T went to his friends house for dinner last week. His friend cooked rabbit. Mr T now wants me to cook it. Any tips and ideas on what to do with it?

There are a lot of people who think we should eat more rabbit - I can see their point, its healthy meat and there are lots of them to go around.
Anyone had venison, I utterly love it! :thumbs: :eatin:
Thanks for the reciepes, banana that sounds scrummy.

Tact will need 2 bottles of wine not one. One for her and one for the stew :D [/b]
DB, you know me so well... :thumbs: LOL
Annabel, I have had venison a couple of times when I was little. My Mom is a great cook but she has given up hope with me.

Oh gosh I wouldnt eat horse meat, when I was student I lived in Germany for abit - there were 'pferdemetzgerei' (butchers just selling horse meat) all over the place, I though it was so savage! and the meat is so intensely red, ooh no, not for me :(
I wouldnt eat rabbit either, the carcasses look so skinny and elongated, it puts me off :blink:
I would definitely try ostrich, if it was on the menu at a good restaurant
Youd never believe I was once a militant vegetarian! :lol:
:eatin: Mmmmmmmmmmmm venison. Hungry now :lol:
I have to admit to eating horsemeat when I went to Germany :blush: My sister - in - law bought us burgers and only told us after we had eaten them :(

Ermmm, a thread about bunny boilers?! :bigeyes:
Ok, I'm sorry. :hihi: I couldn't resist. :lol:
;)
There's a rabbit away somewhere :P
Personally I've had rabbit once and I liked it, when I was younger and had a bar job I came straight from college to do 6 hours work behind the bar, and one of the regulars felt sorry for me, having no tea, so used to make me a meal and bring it into the pub :D One day he did rabbit casserole and it was delicious, I had 4 pet rabbits at home and still enjoyed the casserole knowing what it was :)
Shark is nice and swordfish :) .
Haven't tried venison... Rabbit was served to me in France once - I didn't know what it was...didn't like it anyway, and decided never again to eat it!
Horse...no, I couldn't, I have seen butchers shops abroad that sell it and it really does look a horrid colour.
Actually, I think I could easily be a 'fishy-tarian'...I barely eat meat at all these days :unsure: . I am really into herring (IKEA sells it in jars) for some reason at the moment too! :blink:

I can't move over here in Sweden for pickled Herring. The problem is, I'm a very picky eater and will not eat most meats and hate fish (except Cod which has to be battered sans skin). I'm trying to get over my aversion to fish as I know it's very good to you, and well living in Sweden it's a very common food to have.
I'll eat any vegetable/fruit going, just have an aversion to most meats. I couldn't eat Rabbit, though I can understand why others do. Horsemeat is popular here too... yuck.

In china we had pigeon - which doesn't sound too adventurous I know but when I tell you it came served up with the head, eyes, and claws intact... you had to snap the head off at the neck etc...
it tasted lovely though!!! :)
phantos, Mr t said he does definatley not want me to cook that... :bigeyes: ooooo yuck!

If you get the chance one of the restaurants in Southall does the most amazing Brain Massala, Yep curried Brains it sounds vile but is actually yummy. Also sweet meats can be an experience
Ian :nfh1:
:lol: you lot
its enough to make me want to become a vegetarian 8-X
tact heres one for you >>>>> take a rabbit stroke it gently and put it in a hutch with lots of straw to keep it warm :wub:
NS, Whats in sweet meats? Brain curry? yuk I would never eats faggots because brain's made them :sicky:
er indoors, how warm does it need to be before you can eat it? :thedevil:
nooooooooo !!!
you are all so mean" save the bunnies" i say did none of you watch watership down or ever listen to bright eyes :cry_more:
A sweetmeat is a confection made entirely of sugar. :rolleyes: Did you mean "sweetbread"? If so this is a meat derived from the thymus gland or the pancreas of an animal. It is absolutely NOT the testicles. This is a story put about by people to put you off. Sweetbreads are quite difficult to come by nowadays as supermarkets don't as a rule sell them and there are fewer and fewer proper butchers around. HTH.
er indoors, brighteyes song does that start with -
Bright eyes cooked in my oven?
Feel free everyone to join in... :hihi:
