Y'All Need>>>

4 alligator tail steaks about 3/4" th
milk for marinade
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon rosemary
red pepper flakes

Do This...
Place milk in a deep bowl, add pepper flakes and rosemary. Season meat with black and cayenne peppers. Place meat in the bowl, add milk as needed to cover. Let marinate 3-4 hours. Remove meat from marinade, discard marinade. Pat the meat dry. Re-season the meat, if desired, with black and red peppers. Add salt to taste, if desired. Brush meat with olive oil to reduce sticking, and grill over hot coals, or over medium heat in a gas grill for about 10 minutes each side, brushing with oil again when turning. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Where the heck do you find gators in Arizona she asks? They do sound good though,heard they taste like chicken.
 

I can't Survive peppers other then the sprinkle of Black Pepper .
But Gator is still on my list of Wanting to Try

If I ever do it will probably be in Burger form though if I have to make it :tongue3:
 

Gator Tail is very hard to get right. Its usually very rubbery (almost like calamari). The best way I have ever had it is cooked for about 12 hours in marinara in a crock pot. Nice and tender.

Cubed and deep fried in beer batter!! Yum yum!
 

Got tail meat frozen in my freezer. Gator season is open right now...easy for me to get some cause so many friends trap em. Plus there's an alligator farm down the road from me.
