Anyone eat jackrabbits?

[tkuehn5410]

I think there are a lot of people who say a certain animal isn't good...but I've grilled, pressure cooked. and bbqd jacks, and they eat just the same as chicken but with a kick.

Well dang. I was hoping more people would say they were good. Sounds like they really are tough. I think I may try some in a stew. Slow cooked or pressure cooked sounds like the way to go. Thanks. I will let ya know how it turns out this weekend.

Those looked good enough to eat!

Young ones aren't bad especially smoked over mesquite coals, but older ones are stringy and tough. When I was a kid we killed a ton of rabbits Jacks and cottontails. We had an old willys jeep and we rod around at night with shotguns murdering the heck out of them. The cottontails were far better than the jacks.

We used to make chili out of them, I thought it was pretty good at the time.

Well AC when you skin the first one and see all that snot slime they have under the skin, all's I can say is you're hungrier than me if you can cook n eat that. But let us know how it turns out!

I think I'm gonna try it......once

[SaltwaterSlick]

Well, you know the rules... pics or it didn't happen! Video even better... You gonna put 'em on your griddle?

[PondPopper]

No I never have because I usually have a freezer full of deer meat, wild hog and fish... Never been that desperate..
But I'm not saying I wouldn't if I had to.

Do a live thread!

If you shoot a young enough one it won't look as bad when cleaning it. I shot 4 or 5 before one looked good enough to try and clean. It still wasn't edible though.

I really hope you try as I want to see the results. I see them like I see carp. Edible? Sure, but takes too much work to make it worth eating.
