So were you to attend one of the others, you might
have found yourselves the only oldsters present?

I suspect that the Sunday daytime family reunion the next day that
we skipped because we had to drive home, would have everyone from great-grandparents down to toddlers and newborns present.

Might have been worth delaying one's trip a day. Not to
mention the opportunities for an old lecher to letch on
three or four generations of females.

JW > Bug eating free range chickens are always good.
So do ancient stewing hens if you can get your hands on them and of
course grouse and pheasants which are basically just wild chickens
are very flavourful.

There are neutral proteins and nonneutral ones. The
first require care to improve the flavor, the second
the texture.

So are rabbits and hares ...

I've had farm-raised rabbits that are tasteless but
for the fat, of which there is way too much. Talk about
cognitive dissonance.

... A study has found that chicken tastes most like chicken.

The problem of course is that chicken often no longer
tastes like chicken.

Sunday daytime family reunion the next day that we skipped

Might have been worth delaying one's trip a day.

The reunion was organised by one of Roslind's cousins from the side
of the family that she was not overly fond of so she was the one who
decided we could give it a pass.

I've had farm-raised rabbits that are tasteless but
for the fat, of which there is way too much.

I've had them in the past but not since moving here and so I very
vaguely remember their taste or lack of it.

Wild hares tend to be tough and lean but flavourful.

And where am I going to get a bottle of that, never mind an
affordable one!

Title: Smoke Roasted Rabbit
Categories: Rabbit, Smoker
Yield: 4 Servings

1 Rabbit
butter
onions
seasoned salt
minced garlic
mesquite

I usually roast 'em in the Webber, myself. Baste them with with
butter, onions, seasoned salt and minced garlic, wrap them up in
aluminum foil, and cook them on indirect heat. For the last 1/4 to
1/2 hour, I open the foil, add some mesquite to the coals, and let
the bunny get nice and brown.
