I got a hare the other day, does anyone have any good recipes to share? I tried jerkying the last one I got, some parts were nice others tasted horrible. I think it needed more hanging so this one has been in the game fridge for about 5 days.

Sear backsteaks whole in hot pan then bake for a few minutes. Chuck back legs in the slow cooker with a can of tomatoes and the usual
Before cooking I cure hare and rabbit like this, rub the meat down with salt, about 5 dessert spoons full to the kg, leave for an hour or 2 no more, rinse off the salt, pat dry then soak it in milk for the same amount of time pat dry and away you go. My gran used to do this and I still remember hare as something special when we went to tea as kids.
I like to coat the back legs in spicy breadcrumbs then deep fry.
I follow Scott Rea on YouTube and have used lots of his recipes with outstanding results

@Friwi care to share the knowledge?
the back steaks are normally awesome hot pan salt pepper :drool:
I hate eating rabbit, the smell yuk! Then a couple of weeks ago I got a young buck, so took the straps and soaked in milk overnight, washed under water, dried off, wrapped in streaky bacon and cooked in the Webber, bloody beautiful. More this week for sure, I'll try your way this time :cool:Quote:

I went with the scott rea recipe, turned out excellent! Had to substitute celeriac for swede though as I couldnt find any.
Roast hare nice as and so is hare nuggets.

Look somewhere for my Normandy hare receipe. ( under my posts I imagine). Basically the hare is cooked in cream fir 3 hours( delete the word diet from your dictionary before eating !:-)
Geez I'll have to try some of these next Hare I shoot. I skinned and gutted a mammoth one the other day and in the end it became dog food! Seared back steaks sounds legit!
I cook them whole, dusting them in flour and searing on all sides before braising in white wine, veal stock, olives and tarragon. Goes great on polenta.
Mum used to make Hare pate,Slow boil in a pot of water until the meat falls off the bone use the water to make a soup if you want,place meat in a whizz with the usual onion garlic and anchovies or what ever spins ya wheels blitz in to pate.You get quite a lot and it freezes well.I'm hungry now thinking about it.
I reckon you can basically treat it like venison, same dark colour, same low fat, lean style of meat. I have done then as a saddle ( saddle of hare recipes abound) seared over high barbyque flame and then roast off and rest. Goes good with whole sticks of rosemary.
