Gator Taters
Ingredients
Baked Grilled potatoes:
4 potatoes
Oil
1/2 pound butter
Potato sauce:
1 sweet onion, chopped
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
Salt and pepper
Fried Gator:
2 pounds gator tail cut into chunks
Buttermilk
Flour
Salt and pepper
16 ounces vegetable oil
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 cup grated Monterey jack cheese
Sliced green onions, to garnish
Directions
Wash and coat potatoes with a little bit of oil. Pierce each potato with a fork, wrap in tin foil, place directly on hot coals, and cook for approximately 45 minutes. Use tongs to turn potatoes often.
In a bowl, combine all of the ingredients to make the potato sauce, and mix well.
In a large bowl, toss the gator chunks into the buttermilk, and dredge with flour that has been seasoned with salt and pepper. Using a large skillet, heat oil to 350 degrees F. Fry gator chunks until golden brown, approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Split potatoes and top with butter and potato sauce. Top potatoes with 2 pieces of fried gator chunks on top and sprinkle with cheese and green onions.
