@HickorycroftFarm Год назад

Thanks so much, again. We enjoyed doing this series and sharing what we have learned over the years

Love the series.

@HickorycroftFarm 3 года назад

Thank you so much. We enjoyed making it. The rabbits are something that we are quite passionate about and take pride in. So pleased you are enjoying our series. We have plans for a year end look back at the costs and such for the year. A break down of how much it cost us to raise them basically.

We thoroughly enjoyed the series. The metal insert is called the "extrusion die" or "die". Thanks for sharing.

@HickorycroftFarm 3 года назад

That sounds much better then my 'size determinationer thingy' lol. So glad you enjoyed and thanks so much for watching it.

Way to go!!

@HickorycroftFarm 3 года назад

We are glad you enjoyed this. Raising your own food (meat or vegetables) is important and finding ways to process and use it is just as important. Thanks for stopping buy!

My wife has the same exact attachment for her KitchenAid for grinding meat and we use the medium and then after that go down to the fine for grinding the meat. Oh

@HickorycroftFarm Год назад

We have never tried grinding it the second time on the smaller one. We should so we know if it is something we would like to do. Thank you for the tip.

@pasttime8450 2 года назад

That looks delicious

@HickorycroftFarm 2 года назад

Rabbit and lamb are staples around here. The kids always say that rabbit is their favorite meat whenever anyone asks them.

@pasttime8450 2 года назад

Right on thats awesome I think

@andrewfortin3243 2 месяца назад

Hey thanks guys, been doing this awhile and wanted to start grinding, do tall add anything to the ground mix?

@futorenkin6838 Год назад

Large intestines of rabbit works as sausage casing, I had been using them,

@HickorycroftFarm Год назад

Interesting. Another part of the rabbit that we will be able to put to use. Thank you for this information.

@brigittegenois22 3 года назад

Hi ! Oh i am way behind....rabbit serie omg. I have to catch up and watch from episode 1 ! Really interested as we have rabbits as well. Any reason why you grind it and dont keep it as is like "steak" or "cubes" ? Thanks a lot for doing this!

@HickorycroftFarm 3 года назад

Hey Brigitte, thank you for watching 😃. We occasionally keep some whole legs, but our favorite part of the rabbit is the loins/sides and we usually keep them as steak type pieces that we can then cut up as we need. We eat a lot of ground rabbit so that would be why we do this really. We love rabbit tacos and it.works great for Alfredo or other pasta dishes and makes tasty burgers and meatballs. It is mostly personal preference really.

@GutenGardening 3 года назад

We are shopping around for a meat grinder, what brand do you use?

@HickorycroftFarm 3 года назад

so we kept meaning to check the brand of our grinder as we keep in in the basement, anyways it is a Kitchener brand grinder. It works well for the amount we grind (which is more than most families probably do).

@shelby131 3 года назад

What about a handheld meat grinder? ... Too much work?

@charlesdang2557 3 года назад

Good info, thank you! I have heard rabbit meat is very lean. Do you ever feel like the ground rabbit could use addition of other fats?

@HickorycroftFarm 3 года назад

When we eat it as meatballs or burger, we cook it up the same as far as making the patties etc, but I do use olive oil in the pan as, like you said... it is so lean and sticks. Same with frying for tacos or something like that.

People who keep rabbits as pets will never understand the delights of the rabbit's final form.

@trojantman69 2 года назад

What’s the best parts to grind?

@HickorycroftFarm 2 года назад

We usually grind the meat from the front legs, the belly flaps and hind legs on older rabbits. Sometimes we even debone the younger rabbits hind legs to grind if we don't need them in the freezer. Ground meat is so quick and easy and the kids love it.

Culling an animal is getting rid of the "undedirable" ones. Dispatching is killing them for consumption. Dispatching is the same as slaughtering them. Probably not important for your purposes, but others may be confused, since that actually mean something different. Thanks for the video.

@HickorycroftFarm Год назад

You are right culling is simply taking that animal out of the breeding pool so to speak. For us that 99% of the time does mean dispatching them for consumption i.e. keep the best and eat the rest kind of mentality I suppose. Semantics can be important and you are right it can be confusing. Glad you did enjoy the video!
