patterdalejoel 669 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 slow cook it all, pick it all of the bones then use the meat for the pie. id just up the legs and loin of the rabbit thou, and the legs and breast of the pheasant and pigeon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greerie 2 Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 What would you put with the meat in the slow cooker? also how long would you cook it for? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patterdalejoel 669 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 i put chicken stock in, i just sling it in the bottom oven of the aga overnight. dont put too much stock in, just to cover the meat, or it is too watery and you cant make a good game gravy out of it!! its trial and error, the other week we had a hare and rabbit pie and it wasnt up to much, but last week we had a rabbit pie and it was divine. its trial and error to what you like.

noddy10 411 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Last night I had rabbit, hare, phesant, pigion and deer in a pie. Cut the pigion, phesent and deer in to small cubes and fried in butter. Slow cooked the hare and rabbit and striped off the bone. Added mushrooms, onions, bacon and black pudding. Put some graey granuals and red currant jelly into the stock that the rabbit and hare was cooked in. Feckin lovley. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greerie 2 Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 noddy sounds good. How long did you cook rabbit for in slow cooker and did you add water to slow cooker? Then how long did you cook the whole thing for in the oven? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greerie 2 Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 how much red current jelly you add? What about adding some red wine to? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
noddy10 411 Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 Iv got one of them electric slow cookers, was in for about 5 hours. Added 2 big spoons of red currant jelly to the stock in Slow cooker. Then in oven for about 30 mins for pie. Red wine should be good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greerie 2 Posted February 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 did you add the jelly after the rabbit and hare was cooked? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nik_B 3,790 Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 I have a good Delia Smith recipe that my dad gave me, it uses hot water pastry and you will need venison and streaky bacon as well. He makes amazing game pies! If you want send me a PM to remind me and I'll scan it and post it on your thread... Remind because I will forget Quote Link to post Share on other sites
