Here's one for you:
Beer-Braised Rabbit for the Crock Pot
Directions for baking included also.
2-2 1/2 lbs dressed rabbit or broiler-fryer chickens , cut up
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 medium potatoes , peeled and halved
3-4 carrots , peeled and bias-cut in 1 inch pieces
1 onion , thinly sliced
1 cup beer
1/4 cup chili sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 garlic clove , minced
1/3 cup cold water
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
paprika (to garnish) (optional)
parsley (to garnish) (optional)
Directions
In a crock-pot, place potatoes, carrots and onion.
Season meat with salt and pepper; brown in oil on all sides and place in crock pot on top of vegetables.
Combine beer, chili sauce,, brown sugar, and garlic; pour over meat.
Cover and cook on high heat setting for 3 1/2- 4 hours.
Remove meat and drain vegetables.
Measure cooking liquid and add beer, water, or broth to make 1 1/2 cups.
Put reserved cooking liquid in a saucepan, and return meat and vegetables to the crock pot.
Mix 1/3 cup water with 3 tbs flour in a gravy shaker or jar and shake until smooth.
Stir into reserved liquid; cook, stirring constantly until thickened.
Serve sauce over meat and vegetables, sprinkle with paprika and garnish with parsley if desired.
Note: This can be baked in an oven-proof casserole rather than a crock-pot.
Bake at 350°F for approx 1 1/2 hours, or until meat and vegetables are tender.
Deer is a very lean meat....and does best when used in a stew...
Rabbit is good fried as you do chicken or used in a stew....
My father in law used to saute rabbit in a pan with butter, onion, garlic salt, and salte & pepper. Cook it the same amout of time you would cook chicken. A little lemon zest or juice would be nice also.
Hey!
You stop eating roadkill, now!
Deer meat makes good chili. Or you can cook it about any way you would cook beef.
when preparing wild game (such as venison(Deer))
be sure to remove any connective tissue (including the silver skin you will know what I am talking about if there is any on the meat) this is what causes the "gamey" flavor.
Venison can be used for anything you would use beef for.
My favorite is to chunk it into bite size pieces, dredge that in seasoned flour (salt pepper cyanne pepper onion powder garlic powder) shake off excess flour and saute in hot bacon grease with onion bell pepper and fresh mushrooms.
Don't over cook the meat medium rare would be best or it gets really dry and hard to chew.
You can cook the rabbit just like making fried chicken. You can cook the venison just like you would cook beef.
