Grilled Cajun Style Gator Tail

After 20 years of protection, the alligator has made a remarkable comeback and alligator meat is available again. Most people only use the tail, but the other meat is good, too. The best tail meat will come from a 4 - 5 foot gator. A 3-footer wouldn't be big enough to feed the camp, 6-10 footers tend to put up a bit of a fight, and over 10 foot he's probably tough and you'll want to grind the meat up.

Many prepare alligator sub sandwiches made with tender fried alligator tail
meat on a bed of lettuce with sliced tomatoes.

Good Marinade For Alligator Tail:
In a large bowl or pot (big enough to soak a good portion of meat in) mix together:
1 beer
1-2 cups of milk
Louisiana Hot Sauce - To Taste

Put the nuggets in the liquid and set in the refrigerator or ice chest to soak for at least 1/4 hour.
