Rabbit Meat In Queensland

[grapes_collector]

 Anyone know where you can buy rabbit meat in Queensland?

We were bought up on rabbit meat (in SA) & still enjoy the occasional meal here in NSW.

Apparently the place at Kyogle which farmed and distributed rabbit meat has closed down, so anyone who knows a butcher which either sells or can order in rabbit meat would be be great.

Ta muchly.

Hi Grapes-underground mutton-good tucker..........................Richo.

I know the butcher at Aspley sells whole rabbits, and I would think that any butcher could get it for you.  It is expensive though, and I remember about 30 years ago that it was available in supermarkets and was fairly cheap.

Hi Richo,

You said it. I don't think you can even buy mutton these days. We used to buy it all the time....cooks up lovely for stews.

I have'nt seen mutton for yonks...well not in Woolies. Hubby reckons they growers don't want to age the animals these days...just get them out as quickly as possible.

Underground mutton is a colloquial name for rabbit meat.
