I love rabbit stew. I usually use vegetable stock or, if unavailable, chicken. I wouldn't use beef, too strong flavoured for me.

I love stewing in beer, dark or light. Just different styles. You feel more of the rabbit flavour with lager but the sauce tastes better by itself with dark beer. If on that day you're in it mostly for the meat, I'd say go with lager, if for the sauce then go with dark beer.

An alternative I've been exploring lately is white wine with bacon cubes (lardons). It's delicious.

they are vitimin vampires.

Robbie, why would someone have pet rabbits?

You can't play with them, or teach them tricks.
We have just discovered now you can't eat them and
they are too big to flush down the toilet when they die.
lol, my rabbits love me, they come when i say their names, its cool just watchin them hop around, very therapeutic.

of themslves so eventually all humans will die and the rabbits will
take over the world.

I've heard them talking about this in their burrows.
I've seen them drawing lots to see who throws themselves onto
the next set of snares.

And Robbie has two of them in his house!!

Myxomatosis is the only answer.
Go out and buy some today and save the planet.
I suggest if you're seeing and hearing all this stuff, you contact your doctor something is going wrong with your meds, and if you're not on meds perhaps you need them. 😉

I had rabbit last week. Rabbit and veg slow cooked in an oven with chicken stock and a little cider. I served it with mashed potato & parsnip and steamed curly kale.
