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
and what a great dinner that is Robert. What did you fix with them Crawfish?
Boiled Crawfish for supper! YaHoo! I'm treating myself to some good food before my surgery. I probably won't beable to boil any for a while after the operation. Oh well I'm gonna eat good tonight.
yummmmm, turtle in a Sauce Picante
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.
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.
