  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine veal, pork and rabbit liver and kidneys with eggs.
  4. Season with salt and pepper, garlic, parsley and thyme.
  5. Strain brandy out of marinating bacon and add to stuffing, beating well.
  6. Stuff 1/2 of forcemeat tightly into rabbit cavity, keeping a 2-inch clearance at either end.
  7. Lay rabbit tenderloin and bacon strips on top and cover with remaining stuffing.
  8. Truss or pin rabbit together.
  9. Tie rabbit loosely with string every 2 inches, since the stuffing will expand during roasting.

  11. To serve, remove pins and string and cut rabbit into 2-inch thick slices, like a terrine.
