Texas Rattlesnake
From Cookin' in Texas
Directions:
Find and capture a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake.
Kill, skin and remove entrails.
Cut into edible portions.
Make a batter of flour, cracker meal, salt, pepper and garlic.
Roll your snake portions in the batter.
Fry in deep fat, heated to the temperature that will ignite a floating wooden matchstick (place match in oil, when it itnites, the oil is hot enough to fry the snake).
Fry until meat is a golden brown.
Enjoy!

Too funny! My dad actually did eat a rattlesnake once. Someone ran over it, so he brought the snake home and fried it. My mom freaked! Thanks for bringing back that great childhood memory!
I know people really do.... but I'll pass.
I've eaten rattlesnake once. Tastes like chicken. I'd rather eat chicken, after reading step 1...made my eyes drift downward to the hot bods instead. Think they'd find me a rattlesnake and cook it for me??? HA!
Sounds yummy, but no thanks. Maybe if one of your friends in the photo cooked it for me I wouldn't be thinking about what I was eating.
My hubby ate rattle snack once, too, and he also said it tastes like chicken. When I was seventeen and working in a summer resort, we found a dead rattle snake and skinned it - unfortunately for us the lady in charge was furious at us because we skinned it in the laundry room and blood went eveywhere. After covering the skin with salt, we put it on the roof in the sun and later I sewed it on my boyfriend's cowboy hat. It was AWESOME if I can say so myself. One of the wrangler ate the the rattler...
Hello everyone. I'm back from shopping for RWA National....got me some new clothes.
Yeah, I'd be more willing to try the dish of some hunk of a cowboy did the catching, killing and skinning for me.....
Thanks for stopping by.
Do we have to eat it???? Ugh! I know it's supposed to taste like chicken, but...
