This is a recipe that I will never, ever try.......Never, Ever!
I have heard people say that snake taste like chicken, but then I have heard that rabbit, squirrel, frog and various other critters taste like chicken too. I think people say this just to encourage you to eat this stuff.
I will be sharing other "Game" recipes over the next couple week. If you try this one for Rattlesnake, make sure to let me know how it turned out. And if it taste like chicken!
Recipe:
Find and capture a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake.
Kill, skin and remove entrails (innards, internal parts), and cut into edible portions.
Roll pieces in a batter of flour, cracker crumbs, salt, pepper and garlic.
Fry in hot deep fat until a golden brown.

Jolly Wassail Bowl (English Holiday Punch)
The Wassail bowl was a Christmas must
in English homes. Carolers visited door-to-door, exchanging songs
for a mug of the steaming brew.
“Wassail” is Anglo-Saxon for “Be
of good health” and the word finally cam to mean the drink itself.
The toast floating on the surface of the punch gave rise to the
expression “to drink a toast”.
There are many versions of the recipe, but most of them are usually a base of mulled wine or cider.
2 qts. apple cider
4 cups orange juice
½ cup honey
2 tbsp. Lemon juice
4 sticks cinnamon
2 tbsp. whole cloves
2 tbsp. Allspice
½ tsp. Grated nutmeg
4 cups orange juice
½ cup honey
2 tbsp. Lemon juice
4 sticks cinnamon
2 tbsp. whole cloves
2 tbsp. Allspice
½ tsp. Grated nutmeg
In a Dutch oven or large kettle combine
all ingredients. Cook over medium heat until hot. Simmer for 10
minutes. Strain out spices before serving. Makes about 22 (4 oz)
servings.
