heatride Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I've had all of the above, except raccoon, rat and dog (though you can never be sure about some greasy spoons). And I've certainly had more than my share of Wild Turkey. (The liquid version) Skip raccoon is really good . Taste kinda sorta like roast beef , nothing like a good old raccoon sandwich and tea ! mmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm from the Gulf Coast in Texas, and there's an affectionate term for Cajuns reflected in the following statement: So, Glenn, sounds like you're a dyed-in-the-wool Louisiana coon-ass Edited July 12, 2012 by sjordan2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FASTBACK340 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I was down in Homosassa, Fla. for my sister's wedding a few years ago and `Gator tail nuggets was an appetizer. It was flat-out delicious. At the risk of a cyber-pounding, it had the texture of Shrimp, but tasted like.... Chicken. I have it every time I visit. Yummy.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr moto Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Gator's really good! Many of the best restaurants in the Baton Rouge area serve fried gator as an appetizer and Frank's Restaurant and Smokehouse makes their own gator sausage in case you want some with your eggs in the morning. But I think the best is a Cajun dish known as alligator sauce piquant - kind of like a spicy stew served over rice. That's fit to eat!

Tommy Kortman Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Up here in Philadelphia there is a place in the Reading Terminal Market called Becks Cajun Cafe. It was there that I tried Gator for the first time. It was incredible. It Does not taste like Chicken. It has a different texture. I am a fan of their Gato Gumbo now. As well as their "Train Wreck Po-Boy" sandwhich. Mmmm-Mmm, that's good eatin!!! BTW, I have been told by the chef at Becks that Chicken is a very neutral taste and actually picks up the flavor of what it's cooked with. I guess that explains why everything tastes like chicken. Except it's more correct to say that chicken tastes like everything else. LOL!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Kortman Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Oh, shoot, i almost forgot. That's also where I tried Crawdads for the first time. Not them things were spicy!!!!! WOW!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
