I read this as rabbi chili. Never tried it.

Gonna have to take a hard pass on that one right now.

Those would be some very hard times indeed if it read that.

It is excellent. Was a staple growing up. Lots of simmering.

 

[eca7891]

Yeah.

I pressure cooked the rabbit for about 10 min then deboned.

Going to give it a go tonight.

Man...I like rabbit meat too much to put it in chili. Maybe I'm missing out

I like to slow BBQ rabbit and squirrels. Delicious and crazy tender.....dammit, now I need to go shoot one

It turned out pretty tasty.

Made a white chili out of it.

Try it with woodchuck, too. Smoke on low a few hours and then simmer in broth until it falls apart.

Never thought about whistle pig chili. I expect that would be pretty good.

When we raised rabbits long ago, we made a white chili using a chicken based recipe. Turned out very good. Would cook the rabbit first, then shred and add into the chili.

Even better on day 2.

Add lots of fat or it'll be dry!

I would think you could put about any meat in Chili and have it taste like Chili if you simmer long enough and break it down. I mainly eat elk, and rarely think about small game. We have a shit ton of Jackrabbits, I have heard those are pretty tough though. I see plenty of cottontails too, but rarely think about harvesting them.

Somehow I was under the impression that rabbits have some type of disease (Tulerimia?) that is far more prevalent in them during the summer months?

No fat was added.

I think the pressure cooker keeps it from drying out. That and a short cook time.

The rabbit was not added until the very end then let it simmer for about 20 min.

That would be different then. Rabbit drys out from lack of fat, unless cooked only a short time. No matter how much water its in

8 minutes

Rabbit chili?

Only if you add beans!

Correct: Tularemia. Even domesticated ones carry it. Process your meat well.

Grew up on rabbit and squirrel as a child. Don't ever recall having anything wild in the summer months (guessing due to seasons for such), mostly started in September and went through March/April. I do recall eating domesticated rabbit in late July August though. My grandmother would make the best gravy after the critters were prepared!!! Grew up in SE NE and squirrel season was bigger there than dove season in western KS!!!
