- The Best Wild Game cooking method period. An old cooking method passed down from Generations of southern cooking. Any wild game smothered in gravy is good, but you just ain't gonna beat Rabbit!!!
This one is already a classic!!! Grew up chasing cottontails and swamp rabbits on the East Arkansas Delta. I eat all wild game but fried rabbit is my absolute favorite. Haven’t chased rabbits in several years. Gonna have to dig out my briar pants back out. Thanks for all your wonderful fishing and hunting videos. Y’all do it right!!!
I believe Rabbit is the best tasting wild game. When I had dogs and killed a lot, I'd make rabbit sausage. No comparison to any other sausage I've ever eaten. Thanks for watching!!!
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 As a kid in high school, my dad, uncles and I hunted rabbits nearly every weekend during the season. Heck, that’s about all we hunted besides squirrels. A couple of my uncles had dogs. I can remember the music of the dogs and my uncles telling lies. I cherish those memories to this day. I have had rabbit sausage but I have no doubt it’s delicious my friend.
Nice! I would need to cook two rabbits! Love that crunch! And love the gravy. 👊👊
Definitely good!!
Grew up on rabbit. Pawpaw raised em. Got sorta tired of it when I was little...and fresh garden veggies too (can you believe it)....Now that I am 43, I would take those meals all day every day!
My Dad had over 300 head at one time. One of my favorite foods. I'd like to raise em, but you got to tend to them every day and they tie you down too bad. Won't work for us🤣
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 Totally hear you brother. Also, I was strictly curious....What do ya'll do with all of them fish you catch. You catch a TON of em! I'm guessing you have a freezer full and friends family do too? Do you/can you sell them? Or it it just for getting meat for yourself and family, etc?
@@deejaytrizay If you hold a commercial license in the state of Louisiana, you can sell fish. There are other licenses that you must have depending on who you sell to. They have a fresh products license and also have wholesale retail license. IMO when the state went to trip tickets to keep track of what fish were caught and sold, a lot of commercial fishermen let there license go back due to the headache of monthly reporting. I was one of those that decided it was no longer worth the headache. Most fishermen don't make a lot of money anyways and there is a lot of expense. Some of us just like it and keep it going. Thankfully Louisiana still allows recreational fishermen to fish nets and gear, the fish just can't be sold. 8 don't sell any. We either eat them, have a big fish fry, or some of our friends and family benefit. You'll see some of those friends in the boat with us in some videos
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 Thanks for the reply and info. fellow Louisianian!
@@deejaytrizay No problem. We're gonna try do some videos fishing over your way this year. We're gonna try to stay interactive with our viewers. Thanks for following the channel !!!
One of my favorites. Brings back a lot of memories as this is just as momma used to make it.
I can't even say one of my favorites. It is my favorite, LoL. Thanks for watching
This was my favorite I love rabbit and this meal looks delicious
Guaranteed!!!
Bradley: that's one fine meal right there. You just can't beat rabbit gravy over rice - we do squirrel and chicken gravy the same. I just always keep mine and smother in the cast iron skillet/pot with plenty of onions and seasonings like yours. Cheers - Roy
Anything is good cooked that way. Deer steaks fine like that too. Favorite way for deer steaks!!!
I think your videos are awesome keep up the good work
Thanks, glad to have you are on board!!! We try to make all our viewers feel like they're part of God's Country Hunting and Fishing
Thank you so much for this recipe ! My mother use to have a similar recipe that she used for quail. I wished many times I’d write it down. Don’t hunt quail no more but rabbits run out in the yard all the time. They better start being careful !! Thanks again
Thanks Kenneth. I got a lot of different ways we cook wild game and several more ways I cook Rabbit and squirrels. There is actually one that's better than this one. My Grandma and Dad were the only ones I know that cooked it that way. I'll have to get that one out to y'all. These cooking videos won't be as popular as others, but I know some of our viewers appreciate them, so I'll keep them trickling out!!
Yes my granny and mother were unbelievable cooks. Lot of recipes my granny wouldn’t even use recipes just a pinch of this or that then about that much of this.
I know a lot of family recipes are guarded and not shared. I respect that but any you share I’ll do it well. There are a lot of squirrels and venison and ducks ate at our house. Not saying it’s cooked great,we just love wild game.
@@kennethvaughan8195 our methods are tried and true. I've adapted to a few modern things like the "Instant Pot", but the basics are the same. Only other difference is the old timers mostly used Black pepper and Salt. Black pepper can be rough on a stomach. There's also a lot more Cajun seasoning brands on the market, so seasoning is some different
But you know what I’ve learned. A lot of our elders recipes or their way of cooking had a striking resemblance to them. Maybe not exactly but close. In them days, they had to cook. Wasn’t any running down to Mickey dees or stopping and getting a bucket of chicken.
A funny story about my oldest son. He told my mom once that he believed she could go out in the yard, get a dog turd, put on a sandwich and it would be good. I hope he really didn’t believe that that he was just complimenting her cooking skills. Lol
@@kennethvaughan8195 most went through the depression. They survived
Yummy
Them Rabbits are!!
Great video!
Thanks!!
I have eat a many swamp rabbits. I will definitely try this recipe.
Yes sir, can't believe you ain't tried that one, lol
Salt and pepper flour and egg and fry them up. Old timer way.
Back in the day, my Father-in-law raised tame rabbits and my mother-in-law would fix smothered rabbits also fried them. Hard to beat rabbits.
Tame rabbit is my favorite meat. Most people don't know that they have the best liver also. It's very mild tasting compared to other liver
Lord have mercy. You know how to make a fat man hungry.
🤣🤣🤣
Now that looks like a meal you’d fight over!
Definitely one that don't get turned down
God sure blessed us when he created rabbits
Yeah, I'm not real sure why domestic rabbits never were more commercialized in the US. Delicacy over seas!!!
Looks tasty...with a shot of whisky...What's up, Doc?
LoL, was pretty good with Tea!!!
Keep that plate away from your head or your tongue will beat your brains out! I can almost smell that after you fried it. That really looks good and I'm sure it taste great. Yet another great video, thanks!
Thanks. It was good. Ate on em two days🤣
Another good video
Thanks Kenneth!!!
I do squirrel about the same way. It don't get no better. ❤
Squirrel is a close 2nd to me. Love them jokers too
Let’s Eat!!
Lot of meat on a rabbit
Man I did. Sure miss my Rabbit dogs🫤
Especially those big swampers or domestic rabbits. Domestic rabbits #1 meat period
Going to have to try that soon
Man I'd figure you country boys had already tried that🤣
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 little different way
Picked up 2 rabbits today. Gonna be making this tomorrow. What part of Louisiana are you in? I'm in St. Helena Parish.
Union parish here!! You won't be disappointed. Just season to taste!!!
Can you do this same recipe with squirrels?
Absolutely, but we prefer squirrels another way. That's in another of our videos!!!
How long you fry them bunnies for?
Fry not too long, but you better bake them a while till tinder
Is the meat tough if you don’t boil it first mines always are tough
You either need to pressure cook it first or cover with foil in gravy and cook in oven until it's tinder. Could take couple hours depending on size rabbits
If people realized how good rabbit is they would hunt them into extinction!
God Bless
LoL, we don't want that to happen. I've found if we get rid of the predators, they will reproduce quick. Dang those coyotes
No rice……mashed spud is the way to go
I sure don't disagree!!?
Them seed oils clog your heart.
Go back to lard. 😊
You right!!
Yep, lard it the way!@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638
