I killed a rabbit today and figured I would share with you guys how I cooked it primitively in the forest with just a knife!

First you must skin and quarter the rabbit.

Start a fire and add fuel to cook your rabbit over.
Making a Spit

Cut down three small saplings. Two must come to a fork and be sharpened at the end and shoved into the ground. The next one is smaller and smooth and sharpened at one or both ends.

Stick the small sapling through the piece of meat. Put it over the fire until it appears cooked. Next step is to chow down!
