How Rabbit Meat Can Help You in 2018:

We’re not saying rabbit meat is miraculous, but it is pretty amazing. No matter what you hope to accomplish in 2018, adding rabbit to your diet can help! Read just a few of its (nearly) miraculous qualities below.

Lose Weight: Rabbit meat is much lower in fat than beef and pork (6.8g per 3oz serving versus 18.3 and 8.2, respectively). 3 oz of rabbit meat also provides 118% of your Vitamin B-12 Recommended Daily Allowance, a key vitamin for metabolism. (Source)

Make Babies: Looking to procreate in 2018? Rabbit meat contains 36% of your Vitamin B-3 (niacin) recommended daily allowance, a key vitamin for manufacturing a variety of sex hormones. It also contains 47% of your selenium RDA, a mineral used in sperm production. (Source)

Save The Environment: Rabbits grow to harvest size in just 4 months, and have a great feed to meat ratio, meaning they require very little input for the amount of meat. Plus the rabbits are antiobiotic free, so they’re not contributing to the antiobiotic resistant “superbug” problem. Also, since you’re getting them from us, your local farm, the meat doesn’t burn a bunch of fossil fuel being shipped to you.

Enjoy Life!: Finally, rabbit meat is delicious and easy to cook. You can make and enjoy a home cooked meal without slaving in the kitchen for hours! Two of our favorite methods for a quick and easy rabbit dinner are to roast it in the oven, or pop it in the slow cooker and make pulled rabbit. Details on both methods are in the article below.

Rabbit Meat Recipes

Here are our simple and delicious ways to prepare rabbit.

Roast Rabbit: Defrost the rabbit in the fridge over a day or two. Preheat  the oven to 350. Remove rabbit from the package, and place in a glass roasting pan. In a bowl, mix olive oil with salt, pepper, and whatever seasonings you’d like (we often use garlic and rosemary). Spoon half of the oil and seasoning mixture over the rabbit. Turn it over, and spoon the remainder of the mixture on the other side. Put the rabbit in the oven, turning it over in about half an hour. Cook until a meat thermometer registers 165, roughly 15-20 minutes per pound.

Slow Cooker Pulled Rabbit: Prepare the rabbit as detailed above, but in your slow cooker instead of a glass roasting pan. Cook on low for roughly 6 hours, until the rabbit is falling apart. Remove to a cutting board, and use a fork to “pull” the meat from the bones. Use the meat in any number of ways; some of our favorites are on top of a salad, in chili, with BBQ sauce, and in tacos.
