Braised Rabbit in Red Wine Sauce
Posted in Cooking, Game, Rabbit, Recipes, Wild Game, tagged braised, cook, cooking, game, rabbit, recipe, wild game on February 25, 2013| Leave a Comment »
I have only eaten rabbit once and I didn’t love how it was cooked. I’ve been wanting to try it again and this looks like a pretty good recipe. However, if you have a great rabbit recipe, I would love to hear about it and would also be happy to post it on my blog if you’d like!
One, 2½ to 3-pound rabbit, bone in, cut into serving-size pieces
Salt and fresh-ground black pepper to taste
About 3 Tbsp unbleached all-purpose flour
½ cup canola or peanut oil
4 medium carrots, chopped
1½ medium onions, chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
2 sprigs of fresh thyme or 1 tsp of dried thyme
1 cup red wine
1 cup water
Rice or noodles
Chopped flat-leaf parsley for garnish
Spread the flour in a shallow dish. Season the rabbit with salt and pepper, and dredge it in the flour. Shake off the excess flour. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the oil over high heat. Add the rabbit, and cook it for 5 to 6 minutes, turning until it is lightly browned. Lift the meat from the pan, and set it aside.
Add the carrots, onions, and garlic and thyme then cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes until the onions are lightly browned. Reduce the heat, and cook the vegetables over low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the rabbit, wine and water and cover the pan. Cook over low heat for about 35 minutes until the rabbit is cooked through.
Using a slotted spoon or spatula, remove the cooked rabbit from the pan and set it aside. Purée the pan’s contents with an emulsifier, food mill, food processor or blender. Return the rabbit with sauce to pan, add the rabbit, and bring back to a simmer. Serve the rabbit and sauce over rice or noodles and garnish with parsley.

Cabela’s Big Game Hunter

Last night I got out my Cabela’s Big Game Hunter for the Wii and started playing it. I started with some target practice. It starts you out with easier targets and they get harder and harder. You can shoot all kinds of geese and ducks and then it moves you to rabbits and deer before you start getting attacked by mountain lions and bear! It’s very addictive and fun!
Finally, once I had the controls down and was confident about my shooting abilities, I moved on to the hunts. Again… the first hunt is simple and walks you though all of the controls which it actually does a very nice job of. Each hunt consists of hunting for several animals. And then there are a dozen different hunts that get more and more difficult.
I’m don’t play video games very often. I’d rather spend my time doing something a bit more useful. But I will have to admit that Cabela’s Big Game Hunter is a surprisingly fun game and a bit addictive. If you like hunting you’re going to like this game. I had a great time playing it and highly recommend it.
Happy Hunting!
