Does anyone know what smoked gator would taste like? Seems like it might be kind of rubbery?

hey golfer, in the 225 dine it said tony's alligator was already tenderized but they reccomend marinating it overnight to help... just an fyi.

I would use probably use some lea & perrins, garlic powder, and lemon juice

sounds like it would work, never cooked gator myself

As long as it is tail/tenderized meat, you shouldn't have any problems with it. It won't be tough or anything like that. Most tail meat that is process is already tenderized.

Now it doesn't hurt to marinate it in milk or buttermilk and maybe a little seasoning. But it will taste fine eating it straight out the pack and won't have a strong or wild taste.
