    Hi Ken. You probably get tired of hearing my old stories, but I gotta give you one more. I'm 72 years old in 2 more days, but I remember very well when I was a kid and Dad and his friend Joe would catch a very large snapper on the bayou and bring it to our house to clean it, and the 2 moms would cook it. There was 7 kids in the lee family and 5 in the Sarvaunt family so it took a large turtle to feed all of us including the eggs. Watching you cook your turtle was like watching my mom cook turtle. except she used water cause we didn't have canned chicken stock "cost to much" and used tomatoes out of garden instead of canned tomato paste for the same reason. I am so glad I found your channel, you bring back wonderful memories. Have a great day Kendall....

    I'm 73yrs old, lived in the upstate of S.C. all my life. We called snapping turtles cooters. Growing up we would make set hooks and set them out at night around ponds and creeks in the area to catch the cooters. We would buy beef hearts from a few local butchers to bait the hooks. Beef heart makes the best bait because they're real tough and hard to get off the hooks. We used big hooks we called cooter hooks. We made rounds all night checking the hooks. We kept the turtles alive in big galvanized steel tubs until we had quite a few before cleaning them all at one time. Then we would have a feast with all the family members and friends. Kids today don't know what having fun is. I did teach my grandsons how to do this!!

    Hey Kendall,
    I'm a yank from the State of Wisconsin, but when I was stationed at both Pensacola Fl and Biloxi, MS in the winter of 98-Summer 99' in the Air Force I got hooked on that Southern Soul and Cajun Food!! I've tried countless so called authentic Cajun spots in both Chicago and Milwaukee through the years, and NOTHING COMPARES to being in the good old south for that amazing fresh cooking. I can't believe the size of those amazing blue crabs and how you guys caught 3-5 at a time down there. Yummy. It stinks watching all these great amazing food and food prep videos only to go cook a burger or brat on the grill up here in the cheese state. Please keep making more and more videos, I thoroughly enjoy them sir. In closing, I had an Air Force friend from outside Monroe, LA who let me go frogging with him one night and bugs aside I had a blast and the frogs were so yummy!!! Once again thank you for the very informative content and if you ever offer charters or ride alongs for crabbing/frogging I would totally sign up for sure! Thanks.
    Patrick from Wisconsin.

My brother and one of his high school friends caught a snapping turtle that was about the size of the one you cooked. We were fishing in a cow pond on the farm property. My brother and his friend dispatched, cleaned, and cooked it. Man, I tell you what, that was some kind of good!

    I have cleaned these turtles for many years and what I do to alliviate those "twitching" muscle spasms is, I cut off the end of the tail and use a 12 or 14 size piece of copper wire and run it up into the spinal channel and it instantly kills all the nerves - problem solved. BTW, great job, I like your cleaning method.

    Some of my fondest memories are of my brother and I setting turtle hooks with my father. My father was a great cook. He always parboiled turtle first . Cracker meal, salt and pepper, deep fried until golden brown. Add the meat too a couple of slices of loaf bread and a home grown tomato. Good eating. My father was friends with a local game warden and he would help when he had time off.

    I had snapping turtle once a few years ago. We went to a guy's house that my dad grew up and is friends with. He had caught it and cleaned it and cooked it just like this with tomatoe slices and corn and smothered okra. It was fall of the bone good!
    My family's from Evangeline Parish and dad grew up with a lot of this cooking and now I'm trying to learn.
