Rabbits have started getting a little over populated around my farm so I think i'm going to start hunting them for a while, and i heard they taste just like chicken so i might as well eat them! What is the best way of preparing them???

I cook rabbits & squirrels the same most of the time. It's simple, but good <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Roll each piece in melted butter & flour.

Heat up some olive oil & fresh diced garlic (med-low heat) in a skillet and then brown the meat on both sides.(I like to use a old cast iron skillet that belonged to my grandmother, don't know why, but I was taught to always cook squirrels, rabbits, & fried potatoes in a cast iron <img src=icon_smile_question.gif border=0 align=middle>)

Place pieces in a covered baking dish (I like to add the drippings too, for flavor) and bake for 30-35 minutes.

Don't forget the fried potatoes...<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

Enjoy.

MY WIFE TOOK AND QUARTERED THE ONE O SHOT AND PLACED IT IS A CASSEROLE DISH WITH SOME MUSHROOMS, TATERS, ONIONS, AND CARROTS, AND SOME WATER, AND SPICES, THEN PLACED IT IN THE OVEN FOR 2 HOURS AND SLOW COOKED IT, WHEN YOU WENT TO EAT IT THE MEAT JUST FELL OFF THEBONES, IT WAS GOOD!!! BEST OF LUCK WITH HUNTING THEM

try baking it in the oven with shake-n-bake. don't over cook it though.
or, wrap in bacon and smoke.
or, bake in a crock pot with a little watter, let cool, pull off the meat, add cram of mushroom soup to crock pot, add rabbit, a little milk and use as a gravy.
