Alligator leg recipe

We killed a 8’10 last night. The tag holder took the tail and other cuts. How should I prepare the legs?

Black iron pot smothered down in a gravy, or sauce piquant is the way to go.

This. That is some tough meat and could benefit from a long, slow cooking to make it tender.

Then your only option is smother them down.

Just like an over sized chicken wing

I’m not sure how hungry I’d have to be to eat an alligator leg and I hope I don’t find out

I've used baking soda to tenderize other meat cuts but never with tough azz gator leg meat. Would it work?

Make sure you get every piece of fat off.

Just cook them slow until they melt.

Gator parmesan over cream crits. Pound it out.

That looks great.

I had them at Grand Isle (the restaurant) in NOLA once served as alligator "wings". Very tough. I agree with the gentleman that said stew them.
