My father was a hunter when I was growing up, so we had rabit, squirrel,

I remember when I was a child, my grandmother and my aunt used to make the
best rabbit you could ever imagined. I mean, it was even better than fried
chicken, and I am really picky. Their rabbit was waaaaay above anything
else. I don't know how they did it, but they did. I've heard since then,
that rabbit is not an easy thing to prepare because it can be quite tough if
done incorrectly. Guess those ladies had a gift. Sure miss them.
