Do you leave the crocodile skin on the outside when you cook them?
I dunno...ask Noodles - he gave me a Red for the pic?:confused:
And now momo8 too!
What's blasphemous about the pic?:confused::confused:
Was gonna give ya a green, but says I outta ammo.
Good one booners, have some Croc Meat in the Fridge, now I know what to do with it.
Croc meat is delicious.
NOPE, sorry guys, I only eat Herbivores, no carnivores or carrion eaters:)
I love using good gator meat, I used to get good stuff from down south when I lived in the lower 48. I saw some croc meat here at Makro, I've eaten my share of gator but never croc, anyone had it or a similar product? I'm gonna give it a whack and see how it turns out. I'll post a recipe on my "steal timba's recipe thread". And if anyone knows where to find steaks like the ones from the pic please let me know. Those look delicious. RIP Steve.
Eaten it before but only the meat from the tail. Tastes like a cross between frog and chicken, not bad.
Steve Irwin 'The Crocodile Hunter' was an Aussie icon before his untimely demise after being stung by a sting ray barb.Using his image to sell croc meat is offensive to most.Photoshop the pic out.Quote:

“Crikey!” was his catch phrase, repeated whenever there was a close call — or just about any other event — during his TV programs, delivered with a broad Australian twang, mile-a-minute delivery and big arm gestures.
“I am shocked and distressed at Steve Irwin’s sudden, untimely
and freakish death,” Australian Prime Minister John Howard said. “It’s a huge loss to Australia.”
Conservationists said all the world would feel the loss of Irwin, who turned a childhood love of snakes and lizards and knowledge learned at his parents’ side into a message of wildlife preservation that reached a television audience that reportedly exceeded 200 million.''
^I tried to red you for that sycophantic rant but currently out of ammo.
I'm sure Steve wouldn't have minded selling a bit of old croc meat. He hasn't been canonised yet.
Well then how come everyone says frog taste like chicken ??Quote:

Most people associate food memories from unknown dishes with something they've had. I would describe good frog meat as being a bit chewy with a texture of an aquatic chicken. It has alot of collagen in it, this is what gives aquatic food its unique "sliminess". Check out my "steal TIMBA'S recipes" thread for a frog leg recipe.
Once you've completed a $40 K culinary course you will realise it is actually much closer to aquatic chicken. :)Quote:

But thats what snake eaters say too, "Taste like Chicken"
Pobly ask what Pussy taste like they would say "Taste like chicken of the sea" 555
BTW; I don't eat no fuking frogs either..But I don't think much of chicken..
Never did find anything that will beat a big beef steak, or maybe a nice bunch of lobsters.
Bullshite,crocodille tastes like crocodille,frogs taste like frogs,snakes taste like snakes and so on....ask a stupid question and get a stupid answer.
I've had frog and Gator. Both taste like shit in my opinion.
And of course you are speaking from experience?Quote:

Never ever been around crocs or gators, but have giged lots of big bullfrogs with legs big as chicken legs up in the Deltas and around Sacramento/Stockton in the slews, butchered em and sold em, but never tried to eat one tho, just ain't my kind of eating.

Got it, now? I guess that means he's speaking from experience. But maybe I'm the one not getting it...:rolleyes:
BTW, I don't see anything blasphemous in this thread. Steve Irwin, though a thoroughly good guy was not a saint, nor a deity, was he?
Was he a veggie?
I have eaten Alligator but can't really remember the flavour it was fecking chewy though!
"Never did find anything that will beat a big beef steak, or maybe a nice bunch of lobsters." - bg....agreed, wish I could get reasonably priced lobster here, the rock variety's ok but nothing beats big red. Regarding your selling slimy things but not eating them, 1st you must be a hell of a salesman to push a product you can't personally attest too, 2nd..you missed out man. A man with your level of culinary knowledge should open his horizons a bit. Anything can taste like shit if it's improperly prepared, especially these proteins in question. Trust me, there are good applications for these under appreciated amphibians and reptiles.
One of the finest meals I've encountered was on my first trip to Chengdu China. My country sales manager took me out for my first "REAL" Chinese meal.Quote:

Main course coming up, guy walks in with a rice bag for me to inspect the contents: yep a 1 meter live cobra. Not wanting to give my sales guy a leg up I nodded and smiled. Shortly after some 'yom sings' a platter arrived. It was the skin of the cobra, sliced into small rings, marinated in rice wine and spice. Very very tasty, a little chewy but nice all the same. Next up was the meat of the snake and two small bowls, one of bile and the other blood from previously live critter. Passed on the liquids. The meat was fantastic, lightly sauteed in butter, garlic, basil and crushed black pepper.
Yep it tastes "like" chicken, a long skinny one with a weird flavor. A meal not easily forgotten.

I think momo's referring to the 'tastes like shit' reference NR.
I feel sure FF is not a poo eating sort of dude but then again, you never know ...
