Post subject:  Need Some Good Gator Recipes

I have a freezer full of gator meat, tail, shoulder, jowl meat, ect. I could really use some recipes for the stuff. I have eaten plenty of it fried and, when done right, it is good but a guy can only eat so much fried gator. I have also made sausage (so-so, not great), Jamaican style jerk gator (sucked) and have tried a few other forgettable recipes.

So, with all the Coon Ass's and Cajuns on this board surely somebody has a surefire killer gator recipe that can help lighten the load of meat in my freezer and free up some room for this years catch?

Thanks in advance for any input!

Blacken Gator Meat

Cut the meat in thin slices, use some Blacken Seasoning mixer, get black iron skillet hot, start blacken. My kids love it and we don't fried it anymore.
