DickMcMahon 0 #1 September 19, 2003 If you're a die-hard SURVIVOR fan, you might want to try fixing something special for dinner tonight while watching the premier ... roasted rodent. Rats have a lot of nutritional value as a lean meat. Your average rodent contains about 294 calories, 52 grams of protein, very little sodium, and just 8 grams of fat! (By comparison, a Big Mac has 32 fat grams.) BACK LEGS: Very tough meat that needs braising. Remove, clean, and salt overnight. Wash away the salt the next day and braise in olive oil on an open fire for 2-3 hours. FRONT LEGS (Shoulders): Not a lot of meat here, so make a sauce with the forelegs, as well as the rest of the bones. SAUCE: Gently brown bones and add vegetables & herbs. Add water and white wine to cover. Simmer for 5 hours. Strain and keep warm. RACKS AND LOIN: Season and grill on another open fire. Brown well for better flavor and cook to medium rare. Caution … overcooking will dry out the best parts. TO SERVE: Slice racks and loins, remove legs from oil. Reduce sauce until it coats the back of the spoon and nap into the meat. Serve immediately with a dry Pinot Gris (which, like the rats' diet, has grass and herbal characteristics). Enjoy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
