Not looking for anything in particular? Check out my favorite recipes, or see what Tom enjoys the most!


There are (I know it's hard to believe) people who do not like the taste of wild game. Just to let you know that most of the recipes can also be used with beef, chicken, domestic turkey or pork.

There will also be lots of recipes that are non-game or fish so check back on a regular basis. I'll be adding some canning recipes that I use also.

Thanks and enjoy the recipes!!

Drippings
1 Tbls. Flour
1/4 Cup Sour Cream

Equal parts of Wine Vinegar and Water to cover the Rabbit pieces
4 tsp. Sugar per cup liquid
1/2 tsp. Salt per cup liquid
Few Peppercorns
2-3 Juniper Berries
Bay Leaf
2-3 Whole Cloves

Combine all ingredients for the Marinade in a glass bowl and add the Rabbit pieces. Cover and marinade in a cool place for 2 days - turning the Rabbit twice a day. After 2 days, remove Rabbit and dry pieces. Save the marinade. Coat the Rabbit pieces with seasoned Flour and brown in Drippings in Dutch Oven.
