Cut rabbits or squirrels into serving pieces and place in stew pot or Dutch oven.

With a high enough caliber cartridge, you can save yourself the time of having to cut these small creatures into serving size pieces, if you are harvesting them yourself and not from the store. :hmm:

Reading through this thread, I am thinking of starting a thread asking for everyone's favorite slow cooker/crockpot recipes. It is a great time of the year for that. Just something nice about starting it in the morning, and having the whole house smelling wonderful throughout the day as it cooks.

Kind of like foreplay, but with your dinner. :awe:

^^^ I love me some brussel sprouts. Lately I have been sauteeing them in bacon fat and onions. Sooo good.

Lobster & quinoa salad off this recipe. Reasonably successful.

i used to have rabbit all the time when younger hunting. i would bag a few and do them.

I never cared for squirrel. my grandmother would always use them though. so she would ask for me to bag a few if i could. BTW skinning them is a pain

 

[amdhunter]

2 hotdogs on wonder bread + ketchup + tabasco

 

[Born2bwire]

I did beer battered fish and chips for dinner tonight.

 

[silverpig]

Braised beef shortribs. And I've got chicken stock going on the stove for soup tomorrow.

[Dulanic]

cast iron skillet seared filet mignon with a butter shallot pan sauce and buttermilk/cornmeal battered onion rings

Make that decently often. The onion rings add so much to it. I like a nice bearnaise sauce and some sauteed mushrooms to top it off. Then a nice glass of merlot to wash it down mmmm.

Anyways, last night for me was spicy shrimp with a Portuguese rice dish.

cooked a pretty good college student ghetto chicken noodle soup tonight :thumbsup:

chicken thighs were on sale for $1.50/pound last week, and I had to use them up tonight before they went bad.

-throw 2 lbs chicken in pot (fat trimmed)
-cover with 2 cups chicken broth (seasoned to taste... I added some cayenne pepper and garlic)
-bring to a boil
-reduce heat, simmer for 10 minutes
-turn off heat, cover, and let sit for 15-20 minutes until chicken is fully cooked
-remove chicken, shred, and set aside
-add 2 more cups of chicken broth to the pot, season to taste, and bring to a boil
-throw in 2 packages of ramen or whatever cheap pasta you have (discard the flavor packets)
-cook according to package directions... when done, throw the shredded chicken in and let is steep for a bit.

in the bowl, I added a couple splashes of Frank's for heat. probably would have been great with some carrots or other veggies, but I was just using up the food that I had.

Made chicken parmesan a couple of days ago. Didn't come out as good this time.

 

[gorcorps]

Sweet and sour pheasant

Tasted pretty much like sweet and sour chicken but I think it seemed better because I knew it was breathing a mere 12 hours earlier.

 

[TallBill]

I'm grilling corn and chicken breasts right now. Chili powder and BBQ on da chicken. Brown rice in the cooker.

I'm back at the point of making about 90% of my own meals. Yum

 

[Fritzo]

I made home made mac & cheese and chicken biscuits for lunch today (my daughter's favorite )

 

[Paratus]

Grilled lime coriander chicken with cumin, baked potatoes, and broccoli with cheese sauce. It's a meal even my kids will eat!

 

[mztykal]

Last night made a pot roast with roasted veggies...today I just seared some fresh salmon. Trying to eat semi-healthier as I usually eat out every meal.

 

[rudeguy]

BBQ chicken. lil rudeguy likes dark meat, so I tried the boneless chicken thighs from the store. FUCKING NASTY!

I threw away 3 pounds of chicken.

Today is my Sunday, so I'll make tacos for dinner. Those are always yummy and delicious.

 

[IronWing]

I made egg salad this week.
