Good stuff, I've had it before.
We parboiled it before deep frying

Yup they are good.

My Grandmother would either use a salt water soak, or a buttermilk soak, then braise it, let it cool, and fry it. It's very good. Almost reminded me of frog legs.

I would be happy to eat rattlesnake as long as someone else catches and kills it first LOL

I have usually run across them camping and just use what we have.
Skin.
Cut into 4" lengths.
Roll in egg then corn meal.
Fry in butter.

Its real good eating.

Love Rattlesnake---Dead & Fried!!!
Haven't had it for at least 40 years, when I swapped a Buddy of mine at Bethlehem Steel, on Lunch Break. He gave me some Rattlesnake & I gave him some Broiled Shad Roe.
Both Awesome!!

I tried it when I was in AZ. I figured I had to try it. It tasted good, but if I remember right it had kind of a stringy texture.

I don't eat anything that requires being soaked in buttermilk overnight. RAY

Had it back in 1981 out in Montana while working railroad. Had a co-worker nicknamed. "Snakebite" that caught one and cooked for us. It was quite good
