It is frozen, skinned and gutted with head removed and in my freezer. My first rabbit purchase. Since I'm a first timer, I need to know how to dismember (unless it's supposed to be cooked whole?) as well as how to prepare it.
Hope someone out there can share!
P.S. shark should be "share" - shark would be an entirely different thread!
We ate rabbit a lot in the early 70's. Roommate raised them - sold the meat and the fur. We usually BBQ'd on the grill with a good sauce. But it can be cooked any way you can cook chicken. Rabbit is all white meat, but very moist.
Here's a tutorial I found on how to cut the carcass- the roommate always took care of that part
This sound delish, what would you serve as a side? I love that it's a stew and no tomatoes. Reps coming your way.
It's a rich and hearty dish, so I'd keep the rest simple... I think it would be nice with buttered and parsley'd potatoes, or mashed potatoes or buttered egg noodles. On the side, maybe some sauteed carrots.
Rabbit can be used any way that you would use chicken. It does tend to be a little tougher, though, so it may need to cook a while longer.
It can even be roasted like a chicken without cutting it up.
I usually just cut it up, bread it and fry it. Brown it first, then drain off the grease and add a small amount of water to the pan and cover and simmer for ~ an hour. I use the pan juices to make a gravy.
Good luck!! Hope you let us know what you end up doing with it, and how it turns out!!

Fried or braised after being fried and browned a bit. Brings me back to my days of yore, and of hunting rabbits for supper with my brother.
The cuter, the yummier.
