If you are of a sensitive disposition, be warned. Some of the pictures are a little, ummm, graphic. | ||

Yup, I'm afraid there are innards and there is blood. Can't be avoided when you're dealing with, errm, innards and blood

Really good article.
First time I did this (and not as neatly as described here) was in the little yard at our terrace house with our cats looking on..... they wouldn't go near me for weeks! |

Nice one,I think hare is the finest small 4 legged furry critter one can put on a plate and yes the squishy bits are the danglers too.
Well done,this animal deserves more respect on the table. |

Apart from the obvious rabbits, what other 'small 4 legged furry critter' would you put on a plate 
I shudder to think! (Although I do have a squirrel in the freezer....just waiting for a barbeque! Pete

Squirrel can be excellent, we had several over the christmas break.
My advice is to make up some spiced flour and southern fry the back legs.Mmmmmmmmm.... |

One of the statements you won't be finding in Sainsbury's magazine, this (or any other) month! Never had hare - though I did see them being sold in Borough Market (by London Bridge) for £14 - but thats Borough Market for you. Don't the spanish cook it with chocolate? Southern fried squirrel I like the sound of - even my missus might allow a slaughter on THAT basis! great article btw. |

Enjoyed that.
Is there a similar one for gutting chooks somewhere on here? I have read about it but always chickened out of it (sorry  ) because I was uncertain and have always ended up skinning and jointing birds. A photo story would be so useful.

Going rate for a hare at butchers here is about 8 quid. Absolute bargain. Regarding chocolate, many people here now put a couple of squares into the gravy. Has to be good dark chocolate, and it adds a certain extra intensity to the flavour. Well worth it. |

Errm... Dunno if we've got a chicken gutting article, but it would be well worth it. Would have done a duck one recently but I was lacking an assistant to take the pics that evening. |
