Title: Snake
Post by: AZWarts on June 12, 2011, 03:10:00 AM

I have been killing a lot of snakes lately and was wondering how to cook em up and de bone them.

Don't think most folks debone them at all.  I think they just cut chunks, bread 'em and fry 'em then pick the meat off the bones like you would a fish.

You're right Dave.  Treat them eels.  Bread and deep fry, then pick the meat off the bones.  If you've never had eel either, you're missing out on some extremely white, sweet meat.  I would think that maybe on a big snake, you could cut into 6" pieces then debone the "filets", leaving you with tenderloins of snake.

Yip. skin and clean, cut into 4" lengths.

light flour seasoning, or breading, packet fried chicken seasoning, etc

Fry in oil until golden brown and eat off the bone.

If you dont like breading, then marinade and cook on the grill.
