Instructions

  1. Grind pepper over the rabbit and place in the crock pot.
  2. Combine all other ingredients EXCEPT FLOUR in a large bowl, mix well and pour over the rabbit.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours for a small rabbit, or up to 8 hours for a large rabbit. Actually cook for half an hour less as below.
  4. Thirty minutes before ready blend flour with 1/2 cup of water until it is a smooth paste, add to the pot and stir well to thicken and continue cooking covered for a further 30 minutes.
  5. Give it a good stir and allow to rest 10-15 minutes before serving.
  6. At this point the rabbit should be so tender that you can tear pieces off with a fork to serve rather than cut. Just scoop it all out onto a plate.
  7. You'll end up with bones in the dish so eat much like you would a fish dish being careful for bones. Serve along with a nice crusty roll to soak up the juices.
