CROCK POT RABBIT STEW

Steps:

• Grind pepper over the rabbit and place in the crock pot.
• Combine all other ingredients EXCEPT FLOUR in a large bowl, mix well and pour over the rabbit.
• Cover and cook on low for 6 hours for a small rabbit, or up to 8 hours for a large rabbit. Actually cook for half an hour less as below.
• Thirty minutes before ready blend flour with 1/2 cup of water until it is a smooth paste, add to the pot and stir well to thicken and continue cooking covered for a further 30 minutes.
• Give it a good stir and allow to rest 10-15 minutes before serving.
• At this point the rabbit should be so tender that you can tear pieces off with a fork to serve rather than cut. Just scoop it all out onto a plate.
• You'll end up with bones in the dish so eat much like you would a fish dish being careful for bones. Serve along with a nice crusty roll to soak up the juices.

Steps:

• Using half the flour (3/4 cup) coat the pieces of rabbit, shaking off any excess. Heat the oil and butter in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, and brown the floured rabbit on all sides. Add the celery, carrots, onions, salt, pepper, bay leaves, 6 cups water and red wine, and stew for about 2 hours. Add the potatoes 45 minutes into the stewing process. Once the rabbit and all the vegetables are cooked, use some water to form a paste with the remaining 3/4 cup flour. Stir the flour mixture into the pot as a thickener. Add the already sauteed mushrooms to the stew and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes. Adjust seasonings, if necessary, and serve.

EASY CROCKPOT RABBIT

Steps:

• 1. If using a slow cooker liner place it in your slow cooker while it is turned off. Rinse your rabbit with cool water and pat dry. Season it with the seasoning of your choice. We like Alpine Touch which is made in Montana.
• 2. Place the sliced onions in the bottom of the cooker. Pour in the liquid. Add your seasoned rabbit. Place the carrots and potatoes around and on top of the rabbit. Season them with your seasoning.
• 3. Cover and cook on low for 10 hours. Do not take lid off. Once it is done remove the veggies and rabbit to a platter and cover.
• 4. Pour the liquid into a sauce pan. If using a slow cooker liner lift out and cut a slit in the bottom and let it pour into pot. Add 2 Tbsp cool water to 2 Tbsp cornstarch. Stir until smooth. Bring liquid to a boil and stir in cornstarch slurry with a whisk. Let boil on medium for 5 minutes. Use for meat and potatoes.
