Babyfan's 10th Annual Pick'Ems Contest

That's the same way I had it, but the beer batter was Cajun spiced and it was damn good.

 

Oh yes. Those Cajun's can cook up anything and make it great.

 

Hi

 

I haven't had gator. I almost had gator sausage once but there wasn't enough to go round.

 

I had Gator-Aid a few times.

 

Isnt that an STD?

 

There is only one way to cook gator. Deep fry it with lots of seasoning. Also you can only eat the tail. All the other meat is pure shit. So tuff you can’t possibly enjoy eating it.

 

I was wondering about that. Are there any other parts to eat ?? I guess not. Hell. The skin is worth more than all of the rest of it combined. $$$$$$

 

Baby !!!!!

There's your next bike trip !!!!

Go to the deep south and eat a gator tail !!!!!

Yum, Yum !!!!!!!

Send us pictures !!!!!

 

Umm ... no?

I'm vegetarian SoCal ... cain't do it not even a little bit.

 

Hey !! You asked !!!!!

 

LOL so I did ... just as a point of curious interest, that's all. I don't eat anything that bleeds ...

 

Yup. I will definitely be back here again this year.

 

Awesome to see you back StlCrtn!

 

the gators are waiting for some SoCal Saints for lunch. i'll send the pictures in december !

 

Oh dear

this means you dont eat Bacon and I am no longer sure I can trust you. Anybody who turns their back on bacon is shady.

 

jean - i met someone who wasn't a vegan and didn't eat bacon. i was flabbergasted. and it wasn't a religious thing either. they just didn't think it was that good. i almost died.

 

Sorry brother. I've been vegetarian as long as I can remember plus a few years of only raw eating mixed in there. But I won't hold it against you if you enjoy bacon

 

Ok here's what looks like an amazing bacon dish.
You're welcome

Crispy bacon wrapped bratwursts are smothered in a rich beer cheese sauce.

Course: Main Dish
Cuisine: Party Food
Servings: 6 people

Ingredients

• 6 bratwursts
• 12 slices bacon

Beer Cheese Sauce

• 3 Tablespoons salted butter
• 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup beer (preferably an ale)
• 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (less if you want the sauce to be mild)
• 3 cups extra sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions:
1.Preheat your grill to 400-450 degrees F for indirect grilling.

1. Wrap each bratwurst with two strips of bacon. Tuck the ends of the bacon strips or secure with toothpicks so the bacon doesn't unravel on the grill.
   
   
2. Cook the bratwursts on indirect heat for 10-15 minutes, turning frequently, until the internal temperature of the bratwursts reaches 165 degrees F.
   
   
3. Once your brats are on the grill, start the beer cheese sauce.
   
   
4. In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour until a thick paste forms.
   
   
5. Pour in the milk and whisk constantly, breaking up any clumps, until the mixture comes to a boil. Stir in the beer, again whisking constantly, until the sauce is smooth.
   
   
6. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the dijon mustard, salt, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder.
   
   
7. Add the cheese to the sauce in batches and stir in slowly until the cheese is entirely melted.
   
   
8. Toast your bratwursts buns on the grill and then start serving the bacon wrapped bratwursts in the toasty buns alongside the warm beer cheese sauce. I find it best to keep the sauce warming in the skillet during serving to prevent the cheese from getting hard. Enjoy!!
