Older rabbit, nice and large
Pressure cooked in LOTS of water with peppercorns, old bay seasoning, and 2 huge onions chopped. 15lbs pressure for just 2 minutes and then cooled.
Strain and reserve broth.(I ended up with 2.5gallons of broth) Strip meat from bones....it will fall off the bones easily (toss out bones..they're done now)
Meal 1: soup from 1/2 the broth. Add anything you like...tons more onions, potatoes, carrots, bags of frozen veggies, chopped fresh veggies. VERY hearty taste to the broth. If you leave out the potatoes, this is an EXCELLENT soup/broth for weight loss. There is so little fat in a rabbit broth that you have a hard time finding any to skim off! and the taste is VERY deep and filling.
Meal 2: rabbit and dumplings. This can be made from left over soup for the next day, Just add some of the meat, heat the soup and drop in dumplings..you will end up with thicker soup and delicious dumplings
Meal 3: Pasta salad with rabbit meat. GREAT meal for a hot summer lunch. Cook either elbow macaroni or twists or shells, cool. add chopped onions, and chopped rabbit meat(1" chunks or strips). mix in your favorite dressing..anything from plain mayonaise, to ranch or a light tasting mayo based dressing. Chill
Meal 4: with the final left over rabbit shreds, just mix with BBQ sauce. Let it sit for a few hours in the fridge, then heat and serve on buns like shredded BBQ pork/chicken/manwich type meal.
