Gator Tail


 We celebrated Dean's first year on the job in true Southern fashion by trying our first taste of Alligator. Apparently the gators are farm raised in Florida.  Their tails are chopped up and breaded and fried (like everything else down here).
 


First taste of fried alligator tail.

Delicious!  They all had seconds.

They ate the whole bowl.  I tried a little taste and my impression was that it's gamier than chicken with the texture of a pork chop.  It's not something I'll ever order for myself, but the males in this family can't wait to go back.
