Re: Watch where you step!!!
I killed a 6' Timber Rattler one year after almost stepping on it. It didn't go in my frying pan, but a friend wanted it for eating... so I surely gave it to him. He said he soaks them in salt water for 3 days before any other preparation.

Re: Watch where you step!!!
Never ate snake! But alot of people in this area do! On the deer meat, if you will let it hang in a cool place for about 3 days the blood drains out and its alot tender and less gamey. Be sure its cool enough no insects get to it. Ever wonder why you see cows and other animals hang for a couple of days? We will skin one and let it hang in the cooler for 3 to 4 days.
