Well dinner sounds wonderful Robert.  Nice that the girls are comfortable inviting a professor, I take it he is not Lousianna born?

We had potatoes, corn, onions and plenty of select crawfish. We had ice cream and cake for desert. They had one of their college professors to eat supper with us, so I had to watch what I had to say.  Not to much opinion, one way are the other. I made out okay, just keep on smiling.lol

yummmmm, turtle in a Sauce Picante

Turtle stew is good eating. Been a while sense I had any though. Be a bit hard to make chicharones out of turtle. (Shell may be too hard?)
Comment by Ron Cooper on March 8, 2012 at 21:23

thanks, robert! i have heard of turtle soup. i think what threw me was the comparison to a rib-eye. i was trying to picture a fillet o'turtle laid out on the barbecue like a big ol' flank steak. i've never dressed one out so i have no idea of even how the meat might look coming off a turtle, let alone how to cook it. like i said, i'm pretty much a city slicker. i hope you enjoy it however you decide to cook it!

Well Ron, my favorite way to cook it is in a gravy, either a brown gravy or a Sauce Picante but a turtle soup is really good and the way alot of people cook them. I can't afford to buy turtles and knives, so I try catch my own. It's a real delicacy over here, because they are hard to catch or very expensive to buy.

Comment by Ron Cooper on March 8, 2012 at 20:10

those chops with okra n' greens looks deee-licious, miss jan! yum!

but, being a city boy like i am, i'm curious to ask robert how he prepares his turtle? i don't reckon i've ever tasted turtle meat and i'm curious to know how you cook it?

i don't think you can make chicharones out of turtle meat can you, j.j.?

Thanks Stephen, If I find out that those knives are worth alot more than I paid that young man, I'll pay him a little more. I'm a fair man.
