Dinner with friends

[garnetmoth]

We had our first 2 rabbits for dinner last night! they were draped in bacon (from the farm where we purchased the breeder doe) and stuffed with water chestnuts. served with carrots, a Pino Noir and sage sauce (looked a lil funky but tasted great) and home baked bread.
the backstrap meat filled 3 of us, and DH ate one hind leg- weve got plenty of leftovers and will probably leave rib and front leg meat for the stock.

Just barely sweet, very tender, and we are proud!

The water chestnuts are a really nice touch!

oooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooo... that sounds so, so good! :chef:

I'm sure it would be appreciated if you would make an entry about it in the "rabbit recipes" section.
