Smoked RABBIT on the Masterbuilt | How to Smoke Rabbit

Fire up your smokers! We got ourselves a Rabbit! I believe Rabbit meat is very underrated. Most people use Rabbit meat for stews, but like pretty much any other meat, you can always throw it in the smoker. You can eat it plain right out of the smoker or cover in bbq sauce and throw em on some sammiches! So get away from the norm and try yourself some smoked Rabbit!

Yeah Bro!! I was gonna do a rabbit for an easter special.....but I couldnt find one with the head still on so that I could dye a lil quail egg and have it in the mouth like an apple in a pig LOL.... oh well. I'll do rabbit eventually. Nice job on this!

[@MeatyMike]

999 Things To Cook that would’ve been great! I’ve never seen one with the head on but maybe I’m just not looking hard enough lol. If you find one and do that let me know how it turns out !

[@CanoeingTheEdgeOfTheWorld]

Damn that looks good. I've read that rabbit meat is the most nutritious meat by far. They are definitely easy to harvest in many areas of the world. Nice video.

[@MeatyMike]

Canoeing The Edge Of The World much appreciated- rabbit is delicious for sure !

[@MeatyMike]

[@redriverrebel]

We started raising domestic meat rabbits 2 years ago; much better than wild rabbit. We have at least 50 lbs in the freezer and gonna have another 40 lbs in a couple weeks! Of all meats, rabbit has the highest protein and lowest fat/cholesterol/calories. Can't beat it...

[@MeatyMike]

That’s awesome! Rabbit is definitely one of my favorite meats, very underrated. Thanks for watching!

[@BBQPITDOG]

Man I've been wanting to do this. Looked excellent Mike! Time for some "Wabbit Stew"! Take care bud!!

[@MeatyMike]

BBQ PIT DOG it’s delicious ! Wabbit stew for all! If you do it let me know how it turns out

[@fishnmetal4383]

Rabbit is great I have thought about smoking one but haven't. I only got a few rabbits this season and I usually get home from hunting brine them and do fried rabbit and mashed potatoes. Come this Fall I am for sure going to smoke one! That one you got there looks awesome!!

[@MeatyMike]

fried rabbit is great also! let me know how it turns out smoked man! appreciate the comment

[@deezreviews]

I grilled a rabbit end of last summer, never put one in a smoker tho, figured it would get to dry. Going to have to throw one in my smoker this summer. Try to serve it to my cousins, they’re like ew no bugs bunny. 😂 . looks pretty damn good tho great vid.

[@MeatyMike]

appreciate the comment! grilled rabbit sounds pretty tasty also. at this time/temp it still turned out nice and juicy. theres enough bugs bunny to go around for all! lol

[@BigBand1942]

I ordered two four pounders from exotic meats the one that was open since 1986... Well worth it

[@MeatyMike]

Definitely worth it, rabbit is amazing ! Enjoy

[@stevenbinkley]

I would never rub on season it will be spotty always pat it on

[@MeatyMike]

Glad you liked the video, thanks for watching!

[@markancona895]

Screw a master built smokerThey have the worst customer service when your smoker goes down Had a master bill electric spoker for 2 years and 2 years and it has been nothing but problems problems and now it's completely Malfunctioning And I can't even get ahold of master Built smoker For customer service I am going to go back to an offset charcoal smoker that is that is tried and true and doesn't fail

[@chadmarshall9683]

I used to eat rabbit... but I can't anymore. It makes me jumpy

[@MeatyMike]

I see what you did there 👀

[@itsricecakes]

Does this hurt the rabbit?

[@MeatyMike]

Not at alllll

[@unstoppablebun2442]

Later on the future all bunny’s will be extinct

[@sitibudiman01]

You are cruel. Why does everyone eat rabbits? Is there nothing in the world for you to eat? Such a cute rabbit to eat.

[@MeatyMike]

Glad you liked the video, thanks for watching ! Enjoy the rabbit !
