A friendly place for friends who drink

[Rhetorik]

Also cooking rabit this weekend. Wondering if anyone here has experience in ways to prep it. I'm thinking a stew. probably pretty basic but could use pointers. Not cooked it before.

Definitely stew. Use lots of wine. Be careful taking the bones out.... there's a bunch of 'em.

I'm also at work. It's busy. I need breaks to keep my sanity.

Stew is a great way to do it... make the stock from the rabbit if you want the full experience, but I'm sure you would do it that way anyhow.

I also like to braise them with white wine and do a nice pan sauce with the drippings... red would work too, but is probably better suited for wild rabbit.

DO NOT eat the wild rabbits in TX... we only eat them after the first hard freeze as they are riddled with bugs/parasites. If you feel so inclined to try, wear gloves and make damn sure that you check the liver for white bumps when you gut them.

Tularemia is nasty stuff.

I wonder could I use some beer instead? For the stew.

Like beef and guinness only rabbit and homebrew. Perhaps a DEM might work.

Id go high gravity porter or something that has a licorice added as an adjunct

Thanks Psy. I'll give the furry feckers a pass so. Still leaning towars getting a pellet gun though. I've got my hide/swing set out in the garden so should work well.

The ones in my yard die by my recurve bow... I eat them if I kill them in the winter. The rest go in the trash.

Also, beer braised rabbit is amazing.

I don't have anything big like that I'm afraid. Just think about an easy alternate route. Need to buy some wine anyway so maybe I'll just use some cheap plonk.

Thanks for the pointer though.

I think that sort of malt profile or adjunct would accentuate the gaminess of mutton. Founders Porter would work pretty well for it. If your made of money, use a bottle of Abyss.

If I was allowed to drink at work I would. I'm "working"

Almost time to go back to work. Damn lunch breaks. They should really be 2 hrs. Walked dag, heated up leftovers (shredded chickens on a baked potato, topped with: salsa, sour cream, cheese, green onion), pulled a pint of Mild and kicked the first keg. Good thing I made a 10gal batch of it. About time to rebrew....

Honestly surprised you haven't heard of this before. Haven't tried it personally, but don't really see a need for it unless you're having mash issues (or trying to do a quick mash).

I only use it when doing large quantities of unmalted grain or acid malt. Or if I way overshoot my mash temp....

 

[TheCADJockey]

Well, it would appear @finsfan didn't have the constitution to stomach my beer.
*RIP* I'll miss picking on you.

Looking back at the last few pages made me laugh. Anytime one of you tight-kint bastards goes MIA for more than a few hours people start freaking out. Its like drunk girls at a bar. "Wheres Courtney?!? we have to find her"

 

[ThirstyPawsHB]

Any one have experience with chipotle? Looking at adding some to a 2.5gal 6.5% chocolate stout. I figure somewhere between a tablespoon and a cup.

Who's Courtney and why are you cheating on us?

Mm mm. E.Coli stout...

Courtney ( @finsfan ) is either looking for the package I sent her, or in class learning how to boil water. I assume.

The few times I've experimented with habenaro or jalapeno, a little bit goes a LONG long way. Any more then a few slivers cut from a razor blade in a randall was just right. Any more and the pepper was overwhelming.

 

[iijakii]

Any one have experience with chipotle?

Yup. Bowl:

Brown rice
Chickens
Black beans
Pico
Medium
Corn
Sour cream
lettuce

Conversely if you're feeling fat roll with barbacoa, no lettuce, scoop it up with chips.

I bet this isn't the first time a woman hasn't been able to locate your package.

Stone already made something like that! 😉
