New Release: Rabbit Stew for the Soul: 20 Recipes with a Dash of Storytelling
Bob Ford has been hunting rabbits since he was a kid and has traveled the country with hunting beagles. One thing about being a successful hunter is that you will get to enjoy wild game at your kitchen table. Over the years, Ford has developed many recipes for rabbit, and you will find just a few of them here. He developed these recipes over more than three decades. Some go back to meals that the author’s mother made. Visits to restaurants inspired others. An abundance of harvested rabbits inspired some of the recipes, while others were created for those hunts where just one rabbit is brought to the game vest. Rabbit meat (domesticated) is now very popular, and while Bob created these recipes with wild game, they certainly would work well with domesticated rabbits as well, making adjustments for the increased size of domesticated rabbits. Rabbits are a sustainable source of protein and very low in fat. The contents of this book are recipes developed by a good hunter, who is a good home cook.
About Beagle Tales
Beagle Tales is a compilation of Bob's humor stories about beagles, rabbit hunting, family life, and his role as a pastor. These articles all appeared in Better Beagling magazine, and Ford's writing is both funny and at times sentimental. Beaglers, hunters, and dog owners in general will easily relate to the subject matter of the book. Much of the humor involves his ministry as it relates to hunting dogs and rural life. Beagle Tales has much to say about life and uses beagles as vehicle to tell those stories. The author has hunted over Beagles from Alabama to the Quebec border and is always looking for new species of rabbits and hare for his hounds to pursue.
