RE: its in the pot
When the meat comes off the bones easily, let it cool and remove the meat then try one of these below.
Creamy Rabbit Casserole

2- 3oz. Chicken flavour Ramen noodle soup

Cook noodles as per package directions. Add seasoning packets. Drain most of liquid. Stir in cream of mushroom soup, and milk. Add rabbit and heat thoroughly. Stirring often. Serve

4 carrots, diced
½ cup celery, diced

Cover rabbit with water in a large pot; add the onion, carrot, celery and salt. Cover and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until meat comes off the bones. Cool and remove meat from bones.

Running Rabbit Hot Tamale Pie
[/b][/b]
Scraps of left over rabbit meat...enough to equal about 2 cups. (Can be varieties of game meat mixed)
1 medium sized onion chopped
Water to cover all generously
Boil until onion is fully cooked. Drain saving the broth. Put meat and onion through food chopper using fine blade.
(this is one of the old hand crank models, so using an electic one meat needs to be finely shredded but not paste).
Add chili powder to taste. I use enough to color the mixture about the same color of the chili powder. Add enough broth to moisten well - but not soupy.
Make corn meal mush using -
1 C. yellow cornmeal
1 C. cold water
Mix Well
Pour slowly into 3 C. boiling water with 1 tsp. salt added. Cook until very thick over low heat or in double boiler.
Grease a glass baking dish...size 8"X10"X1 1/2" with oleo .
Put a layer of mush in the bottom of pan. Put in the meat mixture on top of the mush, finally top with a layer of the mush. Grease the top layer lightly with oleo. Bake at 350 degrees until lightly brown around edges. (Will have a crusty appearence on the top.)
Serve with chili beans and lettuce wedges.
Chili beans are made by using :
2 Cans (16 oz) Red Kidney Beans
1 finely chopped onion
chili powder to taste
Saute onion in skillet with oil. Add beans and chili powder, cook until liquid is very low.
Soak lettuce wedges in ice water with garlic salt to taste.
This is my mother's recipe and it is wonderful. You can use chicken, turkey, beef, pork, venison, with the varieties being endless. Enjoy!
