Rabbit Stew

Submitted by catercow

"When we used to live in the boondocks of Michigan, my dad was a hunter and oh, did he hunt. Let's just say all that all that meat had to be eaten, and eaten by a very picky little girl. This was nearly the only dish made with his hunted goods that I would eat, so it's pretty good."

DELICIOUS!!! The perfect fall or winter supper. And don"t forget the biscuits to go with it to "sop up the gravy" left on the plate.

I had to tweak to my satisfaction, but it was great. My first rabbit.

Perfect balance. So many cooks forget the Bay leaves, which are very important. Only thing I would do different is to saute the onions and brown the rabbit prior to putting them in the crock pot. This will elevate the flavors.
