>$12/lb
Season it well
Alligator is very bland
>>7058995
Is it normal that the meat seems so badly cut? Or is alligator's texture just like that?
>>7058995
Microwave is what my family always uses. My uncle's nephew and her neice cooked up some of this in a microwave last month for our pastor's weekly bible study and his daughter's flatmate said it was extra tasty/salty!

You're correct. It's badly cut and overpriced.
I understand paying $3 to try something new, but you just bought what are literally leftover scraps for $12/pound.

/int/ plz spread your autism elsewhere
I haven't eaten a lot of it, but it was usually breaded and fried alligator tendies. I don't think I've ever paid money for it, in FL people used to shoot alligators and give away some of the tail. Now most people just call animal control.

No gators where I live, I'm thinking I'll fry it, or cube it for Mac n cheese

That's harsh. He will get pecked to death by his fellow birds.

Figured it'd be the same as hotdogs or chicken. Friend just texted me the suggestion

>literally leftover scraps
Welcome to global commerce, where leftover scraps command a higher price when they are being sold in a market where the animal the scraps came from is uncommon.

I'm originally from Louisiana and that cut of meat looks like shit and way over priced desu senpai

Thanks anon, the manager at local Kroger moved from Louisiana and requested they sell it.

Is this shit farm raised? I've never heard of an alligator farm.
>>7059072
After a quick search, I've realized that I'm a moron.
>>7058995
Carbonara, the gator should be an acceptable substitution for the chicken.
>>7059072
There are quite a few. They raise them mostly for the leather and the meat is just a byproduct as I understand it
>>7059082
It would be interesting to visit one.
