This would good with turtle meat or gator tail too. Both of which I have in my freezer thanks.

It sure is I got a rather large alligator snapping turtle a few months ago. One of my sons got it when we was in North Carolina visiting. I killed it for him and butchered it and brought half of it home for us. The gator tail some one shipped me from Florida at the end of February frozen of course, about 5 lbs. Neither of which taste like chicken I might add.

((((envy))))

I agree; not at all like chicken--- but the snake does, kinda......a light, poultry kind of flavor, standing by itself.........
I've got a soup recipe you might be interested in, if I can find it i'll post it

I saw that lucky but the turtle I will probably smoke or grill since I don't have that large a piece left. I grilled the other half into a couple of steaks for my sons and their wives when we were there. All but one loved it and she couldn't get over it being a turtle.
