How many people does one rabbit feed?
Approximately how many servings of meat can be gotten from one rabbit? For argument's sake, let's say the rabbit is about 12 weeks old and raised as a foodsource (not hunted wild). I understand that the answer can vary wildly based on preparation and serving technique- I hope to serve it as a main dish, probably roasted or fried.
Best Answer
I'd say 3 to 5 people, depending on the heaviness of the sauce, the meatiness of the rabbit etc.

Answer 2
It not depends only of the rabbit but of the people. Think of it like a chicken. You could feed 2 adults and 2 children with one roasted chicken with potatoes. It's the same with rabbit. Add rice or potatoes for those who would eat more than a half roasted chicken.
