0:10
got my Gator meat we're gonna start by
0:16
cutting our Gator into chunks we're
0:19
gonna salt it a little pepper I'll never
0:23
forget the first time I cooked Gator
0:24
meat my son Bobby had been out to a
0:27
friend's pond and he called me and he
0:29
said mama you won't ever believe a gator
0:32
came up and bit me on my shoe so I
0:35
killed him and I said you did did he
0:39
hurt you he said no ma'am he didn't hurt
0:42
but I just wanted to know if I bring him
0:43
home with you cook him I said you bring
0:46
that tail to the house son and I'll fry
0:48
him up and I said and bring all your
0:50
friends I think I cooked Gator that
0:52
night for about 20 miles
0:54
gosh it's probably been 20 years and
0:56
they still talk about that Gator meal
0:58
that they had and I've just tossed it in
1:00
some buttermilk and we're gonna dredge
1:02
it in the flour if you don't like Gator
1:05
meat use some chicken and it kind of
1:08
tastes a lot like chicken too so we've
1:12
got our pot ready it's at 350 degrees
1:14
and you'll hear me say that temperature
1:17
a lot because that's just a good frying
1:19
temp and we're gonna fry this much like
1:22
we would white chicken it doesn't take a
1:25
whole long time to cook this and you
1:28
want to shake it and kind of get the
1:29
excess flour off of it and since we've
1:32
got these little chunks it really won't
1:34
take us long at all just kind of move
1:37
them around so that they'll Brown evenly
1:40
and speaking of fried Gator meat it's
1:43
floating now and it's nice and brown so
1:46
we're gonna take it up and drain it look
1:48
how pretty that is and back here we've
1:51
got chili fire smash dogs and if you
1:55
don't like chicken you could actually
1:57
even use a pork tenderloin but I thought
2:01
the Gator was really appropriate next
2:03
I'm gonna put together the fried Gator
2:05
taters now if I fixed a potato at my
2:09
house and didn't make this potato sauce
2:11
that my children love I don't even
2:13
they'd eat a potato we're going to start
2:15
with mayonnaise and sour cream
2:23
chopped onions fresh parsley and a
2:29
little salt and pepper and this just
2:33
does marvelous things for potato I've
2:36
served this sauce with just bald
2:39
potatoes baked potatoes any kind of
2:42
potatoes and it's also wonderful in a
2:44
casserole but I'm just gonna mix those
2:46
up and that's our potato sauce we're
2:50
gonna take our potato and these are so
2:52
hot now you can do this a couple of
2:54
different ways you can just slice
2:56
through your tinfoil or you can unfold
2:59
it I'm gonna split the potato and you
3:01
can see the steam coming off that bad
3:03
boy he is hot as a firecracker I'm just
3:07
gonna stick a little butter any you know
3:09
out of all the foods the potato is
3:11
probably my very favourite of all foods
3:13
all right now we're gonna top him with a
3:16
little potato sauce or maybe a lot of
3:18
potato sauce a little cheddar a little
3:21
Jack a little Gator tail
3:24
look at that and a little green onion
3:28
and you got yourself a fried Gator tater
