Elephant Stew - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 medium sized elephant
1 ton pepper
200 bushels carrots
2 small rabbits (optional)
1 ton salt
500 bushel potatoes
4,000 sprigs parsley

Preparation

Cut elephant meat into bite-size pieces.
This will take about 2 months.
Cut vegetables into cubes (another 2 months).
Place meat in pan; cover with 1,000 gallons of brown gravy and simmer 4 weeks.
Shovel in salt and pepper to taste.
When meat is tender, add vegetables.
A steam shovel is useful for this.
Simmer slowly 4 more weeks.
Garnish with parsley.
Will serve 3,800 people.
If more are expected, add the 2 rabbits and this is not recommended as very few people like hare in their stew.
