This recipe is amazing! After reading the comments it seems that some of the people that had issues weren't experienced converting measurements or reducing liquids. Remember that this recipe is flagged as intermediate. I suggest that if you are a beginner cook or an infrequent multi-step recipe cook that you make this when you have the time to convert the measurements and reduce the liquids. I used chicken thighs and it was awesome, but I also use pretty complicated recipes on a regular basis.

made this... (with chicken I can see how this would be great... if I knew how to convert the FREAKIN measurements!!!! can you please convert them for all of us who couldn't figure out what 4 oz of sugar is or 1 1/2 pounds plus 1 1/2 ounces of flour is!!! Can you just give me easy measurements as in CUPS, Table spoons, teaspoons ETC. sooo frustrating to be trying to make dinner with kids crying and trying to look up on the internet to convert.
ALSO--- there was WAY too much liquid

This was very good. It was my first experience with rabbit, but it worked out well. I totally agree that there was too much dough, but the biscuits I made from the leftover dough were delicious, and I may just save out that recipe to make bicuits from. I didn't have any terragon, so I skipped that, but it still tastes great.

Unlike other reviewers, I don't think there is too much liquid. It was like a soup the first day, but after it was refrigerated, the liquid condensed and it was just enough.

This recipe ROCKS! We couldn't bring ourselves to eat Rabbit so we substituted with skinless chicken thighs on the bone. We followed the recipe exactly - cutting it in half - and it was deeelicious!

This was amazing!!! Since I was using wild, fresh rabbit, I soaked the rabbit for a couple of hours in a mixture of white vinegar and water. I placed the rabbit in a large mixing bowl and added one cup of white vinegar and added enough cold water to cover the rabbit completely. This helped to pull out any blood and gaminess as well as helping to tenderize the rabbit. Rinse the rabbit with cold water after a couple of hours of soaking in the vinegar mixture prior to use. I would agree, do not add all of that stock/broth, it's a little too much, I only used enough to cover the meat. I made some mashed potatoes and placed the stew on top. I barely had any leftovers. I would also agree with others that there was a lot of biscuit dough left after placing it on the top of the stew. I also made biscuits out of the remainder of dough and everyone raved about them as well. I will absolutely be making this again! Thank you, Scott!

Delicious! Awesome! I made this last night, we loved it. But I changed it in a few ways... based on prior reviews (and the fact that we don't eat rabbit. I used 3 small chicken breasts, cut in half, and 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs.
I made a half-recipe of the biscuits, which was plenty. And we used way less liquids: 750ml chicken broth and 1/2c wine. We added sliced cremini mushrooms in addition to the reconstituted dry morels (I would prefer fresh. Also added more peas and carrots.
It was yummy and cozy and comforting. We would definitely make this again for company.

Delicious. I tried it with Cornish game hens and that worked very well too.

This recipe is very tasty but needs some adjusting with the amount of ingredients. First off, the biscuits recipe can be cut in half. Made way to many biscuit. I also felt that there werent enough peas and carrots in the dish. I will double next time. The only subtitution I made was using bone-in skinless chicken breast instead of rabbit. Next time I will use chicken thighs for more flavor. Don't substitute fresh tarragon for dried!!! The fresh tarragon makes the recipe!

I made this last night. I used the biscuit recipe and the tarragon really gives them a nice flavor. I had to use dry herbs because that is what I had in the house. I live 20 miles from the grocery store. I should have followed the suggestion of the last reviewer and used less stock. There really was too much liquid and I used just 1 qt of broth. My husband enjoyed it. I thought there was a bit too much sugar in the biscuits so next time I'll cut back.. Other than that, I would make this again.

I made this dish after seeing it on the show. It was delicious. I subsituted the rabbit with 10 small chicken thighs and I used less than a quart of chicken stock. I didn't want to have a lot of liquid in the dish. Now, I must admit, I didn't make the biscuits using the recipe. I used Bisquick and made drop biscuits instead. I did however added the tarragon to the mixture and they turned out wonderful. Next time I make this I think I will add more peas, carrots and maybe other veggies. This is a keeper.
