Wow, as a Korean American and a lover of Korean style BBQ, I must try that thing someday.
Jam up for sure!! Always welcome comments and tips as well!!
Thank u for your service. South Korean bbg we're something special 😊 and thank y'all for sharing a wonderful story 🙏 appreciate y'all sharing
I'ma Clarify, I didn't serve in the military, but thank everyone that has!! My Grandfather and father-in-law did. I worked offshore in the gas and oil industry and that led me to South Korea. Was some good food there!!
Deal down south ? Appreciate y'all sharing brother 😀
Another great video. Growing up in Florida we would run trotlines and catch catfish and softshell turtles. My grandmother would cook the turtle with rice and she called "turtle perloo". Thanks for the variety of things you show!
That's a great story. We haven't heard of turtle perloo. We would be interested in knowing what a recipe was or what it had in it.
Im a lifetime member of the PETa organization (People Eating Tasty animals)
Lol, I guess you could say that!!
Your culinary prowess and creativity in cooking a soft shell turtle Korean BBQ style, known as "Turtle on a Stick," are truly impressive. Your innovative approach to preparing this unique dish showcases your passion for culinary exploration and sharing delicious homemade recipes.
And I Am Floating Village Life
Thanks, glad ya found our channel. Thanks for the kind words
Definitely going to try this marinade recipe when making elk jerky. Thanks for the recipe and keep up the good work! Love your videos.
It's a good one for sure!!
Hay just wanna say I barely comment but you guys are just an amazing lil channel , really hope to see y'all get bigger, nothing but love from southwest MS ❤
Thanks, much appreciated!! Keep it real in Mississippi
I would have never thought of cooking it like that it looks delicious
Thanks again for another awesome video I really enjoyed it and as always I'm really looking forward to seeing the next video
It was great. Any meat would be!! We will come up with something by Sunday Morning 🤣🤣
That's getting to be a lost art,,,great job
Thanks, I'm just glad the Korean BBQ did it justice, but it was a home run at the table!!!
I’ll have to give that recipe a try soon. Looks good.
Don't miss out on it!!
I probably throw 50 of those back a year while catfishing, looked good to me, great job keep up the good work.
Oh, I have too, but if you ain't tried it, you might should, lol
Nice that was a big turtle we used to run trot lines when i was coming up and would get some turtles they sure was good fryed up
We definitely will need to try turtle fried. Seems a lot of people like it that way.
My sister in law flours and browns it. She smothers it to make it tender. Sooo good.
That does sound really good. We hope this wasn't the last one we ate.
Glad to have across this tutorial!
I was wondering how people cooked these fellas.
I think I’ll try that!
Thanks for the wonderful recipe!
Have you ever tried it with white tail deer?
Pretty Sure aint many in the US cooked one this way, but they are good!! hear of a lot of them Fried, Turtle soup, and Sauce Piquante
Awesome job! Got to try that
Start lighter on salt, add it to fit your taste and you can't go wrong!!
I’m honestly not a huge fan of eating turtles but lo and behold I married a woman who loves to eat turtle!😂 this video was a great tutorial on how to clean it out and prepare a turtle thank you for sharing your knowledge ❤
Thank you for watching. She cook you some Korean BBQ style, you might be a turtle eater!!!
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 maybe so 😂 only one way to find out right
Won't hurt ya to try it, I think🤣🤣
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 I never say never 😂 but I will try ALMOST anything once
I'm going to try that on some venison stew meat that's from last year and see how it does. Wife needs gluten free stuff so that should work just fine. Thanks for the recipe and video's, there always a learning experience.
It's good, but leave the meat in strips or put on a stick so it don't fall through grating. You'll have to tweek it to your taste a little on the salt, and sugar, but it's really good. I'd start off on the lesser salt first go because the soy has salt also
I want to make some turtle soup so bad. My grandpa was a commercial fisher in the 60"s and 70's. We had everything that wouldn't eat us first to live on. Have you seen what turtle meat sells for? We are in the wrong line of work. Turtle farm in my future!
Probably not a bad idea. 😂
Heck yeah brother nice turtle. Yum
Might try some fried with milk gravy next go!!
Just when ya think you have seen it all. Korean bbq turtle on a stick. Lol
AWESOME
It actually was awesome😂, who knew
We all got diabetes from watching this ❤. The sweetest video on youtube 😂
Thanks, Not sure its the sweetest, But a lot of people definitely like it!!
the best turtle soup ive ever had came from breaux bridge of course, but both cafes closed down to my knowledge (cafe des amis and cafe chez jaqueline). i miss the food there, especially pizza village in lafayette! cheers!!
Ain't tried soup yet, But it sounds good!!
I'll put the pieces on a stick like you suggest and go that away. I already have them soaking. Thanks again. You all are really great responding to all the folks who leave comments. That's alot of extra time you put in. Speaking for us out here, it is really appreciated. Wish we had the fishing for cats here in Colorado like you do, but,... we do have Elk. Thanks again, God bless👍
I'll be up there in Oct!! Don't forget the green onions!! It's a distinct flavor for sure, but it's great
Some of these comments kill me ... He didn't ask y'all to like it. Simple thing is y'all eat meat from the grocery store and never bat an eye.. how do you think that meat got there. I'll take fresh meat any day over processed. Looked great to me. And for the ones complaining about how sharp the knife is y'all are more than welcome to send them some sharp ones instead of crying over it. Grown folks acting like baby's lord have mercy. Thanks for showing all the process of cleaning and cooking. Me an my husband fish and hunt year round nothing better! Love from Mississippi ❤
Thanks, they not bothering us near as bad as they think, lol. Your on point though🤣
Dude turtle meat is a delicacy I'm a country boy and thst stuff to ,e is so good squirrel is also good cooked the right way or some upstate trout fishing hell yeah
You got that right. If you haven't tried the Korean BBQ style definitely try it.
Looks delicious. Can’t wait to try it, we have a big alligator snapper that hangs out by our creek. He doesn’t know it but he’s going to meet some spices…
Lol, well it should eat good
@michaeldecocker1265 You can keep one in Louisiana
Naw, lol, just letting ya know. I don't set people straight, lol. I do know they listed endangered in some states. I'm not sure if we catch one that wed keep it or not. Cross that road when I get there I guess
Poor FRANKLIN 😂 HE PROBABLY TASTES GOOD 😋
Delicious!!
Franklin morphed from turtle to turdle!
🤣
Franklin looks good on the grill
Oh it was definitely good!!! Thank you for the comment.
Turtle stew with vegetables 😋 yum
Sounds good to me!!
I like sweet Thai sweet chili sauce for something straight out of a bottle. You can doctor it up if you want but it's cheap and good.
As a marinade before cooking or dipping sauce?
did you leave the backstap pieces in the shell? those 2 tidbits are worth keeping on snapping turtles at least.. requires cutting through the ribs beside the backbone on the top shell
I knew it would be worth it on snappers, but in looking at a softshell, just didn't look like much there to me. Their shells are flatter, so no rise in the arch part or room for much there. Maybe someone will correct me. We learn from you guys comments also
Soooooo im just going good head and say it you season like a black person no measurements better more than not enough… love it
Lol, Well its actually just how all the older people did it. If it aint right, Add a bit more, LOL!!!
Korean BBQ wha wha represent!
Hey, if you got suggestions for improvement, we pretty open to suggestions, lol
Ok. That’s one on me.
I’ve caught many. But never cooked one.
I guess I’ll have to try it.
Was thinking about turtle tacos.
Maybe call em Tender Turtle Tacos.😂
Meat is tender, so you can cut it up and do whatever you want. I can't think of anything it would be bad in 😳
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 we’ll give it a try then
That looks Dang good!
Oh it's fantastic!!
That was a great video. What do you do for a living ? If you don’t mind me asking.
Electrical work
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 I’m a lineman. High line
@Shaw.77 naw, I'ma stay on ground!!!
I bet that’s some good eatin. You got to bring me some of that!
Better than chicken🤣
This is real country stuff
Country fried, and country Gravy most the time🤣
Heck yeah. Anything that breathes is fair play.
My brother was over there for two yrs in the army right before desert storm started
I'm not sure how much the military got to do there, but when we weren't working we pretty much had free range. No crime there at all
Good, cheap food, and most Really like American people. You get generations there, want to westernize, so most are nice as can be. Plenty speak English so it was fairly easy to communicate
I have had snapping turtle before, but not the soft shell. My Kentucky friend and I caught them and his wife made turtle soup. It was really good.
No doubt, havent tried that yet, But not a doubt its good!!
For the French classic dish turtle soup green sea turtle is a protected species. Soft shells would be a close alternative. The broth is made from the fat inside of shell with small cubed pieces of meat and if it's a female the undeveloped eggs (just the yolks). Are soft shell turtles farmed? Are cooters and/or snappers farmed?
Im not a turtle expert, But I think they are farmed. Maybe someone will add a comment on this thats more knowledgeable
Have you found the egg clusters inside turtles?@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638
Dang, that does look good.
It was good as anything you could buy in a restaurant!!
Yummy 😋😋🤤 looks delicious
Was pretty jam up!!
Man, makes me regret throwing back all them soft shells when I was fishin. Thanks for the recipe!
Lol, you won't regret it until you taste one, lol
I bought some turtle meat in your state took it home and grilled it pretty good eating.
It's way better than I thought it would be
Where do you get those big cheese blocks at that you put in your big catfish trapping Nets
Cooter's Bait & Tackle in Farmerville LA.
You need a sharp knife sponsorship
Lol, well least I can cook, lol. That knife goes through a lot of meat. It has its moments 🤣🤣. Hey, I'll take a knife sharpener sponsor for sure
Been eating ss turtle all my life Florida is full of them season been closed for a couple of years though wished they'd open it back up
Yeah, I doubt it's like a ton of people gonna target them. People too lazy and we getting to points in states that we over-regulated
I wish they sold it in stores you see venison sometimes but that looks good right there
Yeah seen it in fish markets before, but definitely don't see it like we used to.
Im on the east coast and ive accidentally caught turtles while fishing before - I wonder if you can so the same with regular ones.
Man you're living tbe life. Id love to hunt and dress my prey, then bring some home to the lady.
Get after it!! anyone can do most of what we do with a little studying up on regulations. Only turtles i know much about people eating are snappers and softshells. im not familiar with eating others. Maybe youll get another comment on this
R.I.P. Franklin. Where is my plate 😊
All the rest them Franklins better look out!!
I don't marinate any meat. I don't bbq any meat. I like to taste the actual meat. I'd chicken fry this turtle. I would bread it in flower using the juse from the meat to cause it to stick. I'd cook it in a cast iron skillet. I don't care for deep fried meat.
Sounds good to me, Im sure id eat it and love it!!
Wow, the turtles name was Franklin. Thanks
Wifes Crazy, Franklin was a cartoon character
How did you kill it before you started skinning it?
I'd rather not answer that, because I'd get a lot of comments afterwards on a subject like that, lol
do people who eat softshell turtle in the US ever eat the shell? when i see chinese cooks making softshell turtle, they braise the shell along with the meat, and they eat the outer, softer "skirt" part of the shell. apparently it is very rich in collagen so requires a long braise to get the right texture for eating, but its pretty common to hear asian folks say that the turtle skirt is their favorite part of the turtle to eat. every time i click on a USA softshell turtle cooking video, im hoping to see folks eating the shell and describing it a bit in english, from an american perspective, but i never see anyone actually cooking or eating it.
Lol, I have no idea. Guess we could do some Turtle Cracklings!!!!
After catchin and releasing an alligator snapper, the aroma turned me off to to turtle of any kind. But then,i wasnt that hungry either
Lol, well just in case you ever get hungry, you got a good recipe now🤣
Sad I love turtles......make great pets. I used to own some gator snapper turtles until I moved into an apartment them had to release them in a lake nearby......dont worry I live in the heart of their natural range
I mean people got pet chickens and cows. You probably eat those, lol. What's the difference?
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 you misunderstand me I was just joking....id eat a turtle any day of the week, and cows, and well.......everything else
Lol, no biggy, im rarely serious in our comment section. We appreciate all the comments and support from all you guys!! Building a bigger outdoors community, one Video at a time!! God Bless
That there is good catfish bait all your leftover stuff
Ain't ever tried that. Wasn't aware. Thanks for letting us know
Which one of the ninja turtles do you think that is? 😂
I got no idea, but there's one less, lol
Bradley what about the neck? Lots of good meat on that long neck. We going to try your B B Q recipe neck and all.
Second person thats said that. Im experiensed with the Korean BBQ, Not too experienced with Turtles
If you'll take that Turtle meat put it in the freezer for a little while and let it get firm you can debone it a lot quicker and easiest
Thanks for the tip, makes perfect sense
So what were you doing in South Korea?
Working. Was in ship yard working for Diamond Offshore
What is the safest way to clean and cook turtle
I mean how we did it was pretty safe!!
So no need for a lemon wash… or does it depend on the turtle or what body of water?
Not trolling these are real questions (ik its ppl that n the comments that are trolling)
@tyronedurham510 I have no idea. Maybe someone knows more about them than I do will comment
Nice looking kalbi!
Tasted good too!!
Having only messed with Snappers, not seeing it claw at you while dead was odd.
All that yellow stuff is not meat. Not 100% sure but it was explained to me as that stuff is the pollution in the water that collected in them over the years.
Regardless IMO ya better served take the time to get it all off.
It's mostly just fat. Not saying it ain't got buildup of bad stuff. I just don't know on that
Eat em' up. Damn good meat
It was fantastic
Only thing I would have done differently is scald the turtle first
Then after removing the quarters you boil the shell and scrape “all” the meat off
Thanks for suggesting. We aint done a lot of turtles
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 if you scald it in boiling water. Then scrape it the outer skin and nails just wipe away. Your left with a Snow White turtle
@keithmatthews3750 makes sense, but are you saying all the skin comes off? Guess I'd have to see it. That said I'm still not understanding that there is anything wrong with just skinning them as long as the skin is disguarded. Seen a lot of people do it that way. Same with hogs, some scald them, some skin em. Either way works. Just asking. We're definitely not Turtle experts here
Only the outer layer peels away. It kills and gets rid of any bacteria, turtles live in bacteria filled lakes and ponds, and allows to to boil the shell and get all the meat off the inside ..
Got any leftovers?
Naw, they Gone!!
I was told by an old timer that turtles have 7 types of meat.
Heard the same thing from the old timers.
It definitely has different color shades. Maybe someone that knows more will chime in
Commenting to hear more
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 haven’t had any in 35 years. The last i had was a snapping turtle my grandmother cooked and all the meat was different with textures I don’t remember on flavor.
Bet it was good though!!
Hey man I bet we can fool everyone and tell them its not turtle
Guaranteed they wouldn't know, LOL
I always heard that there is 7 different flavors of meat in/on a soft ~shell turtle 🐢? Idk but 8ve been told by several ole timers that was true? Let me know okay
I thought it was like 7 or 8 differ color meats. I couldn't tell any difference on taste, lol, but it was marinated
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 Okay 👍 👌 Thank You for replying back to me as you always have. ❤️
No problem, we're going to as long as possible. It's gonna get tough as we grow, but we will definitely read all and do our best to reply soon as possible
And that's why the length is misunderstood
Ok, what did I miss?
How dare you hurt that turtle bro
He ate just as good as anything out the meat market, LOL
You can have my portion I'm not hungry
I ate it, no worries 🤣
Im fishing for catfish literally right now and just caught the biggest soft shell turtle ive ever caught. It swallowed my hook, so it was gonna die anyway, so i came straight here for a recipe. My wife thinks im wrong but i cant just leave it here to rot..
It is absolutely a fantastic meal. A bit messy for cleaning, but definitely don't let it go to waste. They also good fried like chicken tenders or whatever
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 I'm gonna fry it! Just got home with everything and realized I don't have any oil....back to the store I go!!
Well it's a lot better than I thought it would be. 👍🏽👍🏽
@ratherbeonthemoon Take it you BBQ it on sticks??
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 Nope, I cut in chunks and fried it like catfish!
Chicago food
Chicago?
Dam there cooking micheal Angelo never in my life so screwed up
Did you see those meat stick on the grill, ain't no way that's messed up. Delicious 😋
Maaaaaaaaaaaan!!!!!!!
Yes sir!!
After killing the turtle, did you pour boiling water on it to clean it? Prevents spreading bacteria. My grandpa did it that way. Born in 1883, in high Appalachians, he would make today's survivalists look like amateurs.😊 otherwise good video
Didn't know I was supposed to. I mean we trimmed meat out really good. Guess we amateurs🤣🤣.
You didn't show how to get the meat off the top shell
Sorry, TH-cam really gets us if it gets too yucky, and that part is real yucky on a Turtle.. trust me we'd rather show it all, just sometimes they don't let us
WELL!!!! Thanks for the cleaning process... i missed a few steps and your knife is dull...
Lol, knife might been a little dull, but turtles are tough skinned. Had to leave the innards portion out of TH-cam wouldn't like it. Sorry, best we can do
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 ok, seeing where you cut to remove the head and legs etc,,,, i understand the gut part...
@fredericksharon7494 Gotcha. Turtles can be pretty gross. Lots of fluid inside. Our Videos WILL NOT get reach if we put it all on there. Done tried. While this was a cleaning video, our focus was not really cleaning, it was more the cooking end and showing a new recipe people could use on various meats.
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 tks, keep it up, turtle kebob, stuffed turtle, turtle poppers...don't forget my favorite: Turtle Soup w/Dumplings
@fredericksharon7494 sounds good to me. See, when we leave a little out, just leaves opportunity for new videos🤣
I posted a comment ,but she gone!
What ya got. Nothing on our side
I had a softshell turtle sandwich in New Orleans once. Underwhelming flavour!
Ain't tried it fried yet, but may soon!!
WHY? Fresh boneless chicken breast is CHEAP as hell.
Hmmmm. I worked in a Chicken processing plant 6 years. I promise that Turtle was healthier
I think he missed the sharp knife part…
Not totally, them turtles tough. Watched another video of a guy opening up that bottom part, he used shears. Im a retired Taxidermist, I got sharp knives. Probably use an outdoor edge next time though
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 thanks for the Ed 👍 keep up the great work 🙏💜
No disrespect meant. I do have some knives get dull, but it's because they get used a lot 😉
@@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 none taken 😎 you got it champion 🫴🏆
Dang poor Franklin he had to be very old just sad
Think softshells grow pretty fast
Legal?
100%
It’s just your facial expression says different about the taste 😮
No Sir, Every bit of that turtle got ate. Definitely will be eating more.
You have a name for it was it a pet😮😊😊😊😊😊
😂 Franklin was a cartoon when our kids were growing up 😂
@@Bayoubelleoutdoors got ya thank you for your service
Thank you for watching!!
I don't mean to be rude but I can already foresee this video being demonetized
Thanks for watching. We try our best to be sensitive to all viewers, and we hope everyone enjoys our videos. This wouldn't be the first one that's been demonetized that's for sure. In our opinion, no video dealing with cleaning, cooking, and eating should be demonetized because it's a natural way of survival and putting food on the plate.
@godscountryhuntingfishing1638 and I totally agree with you on your last statement. I don't understand how people are so sensitive and yet they eat the same meat in the restaraunts or in the store bought canned meat.
Thanks for watching and the comments. We try to keep it as real as we can.
Asian cooking always ginger .....
You saying it should have Ginger in it? I need all the help I can get, lol
Sorry everyone but it's true
Thanks for watching!!
IF you can tell me how to spell sauce P_____t and what it means in the CAJAN language, I will show you exactly what you are talking about.
PIQUANTE is the correct spelling, and were not Cajun, LOL. dont mean we cant cook Cajun STYLE Food, lol.
I didnt even know u can cook n eat a turtle what the ****
I recon you can cook and eat about any critter
You need a good sharp knife.
Need a knife sharpener sponsor🤣🤣
You missed all the meat in the neck.
I'm way more knowledgeable about the recipe than I am the turtle. I don't doubt I missed some. Did best I could with what TH-cam allows us to show.
Looks like rabbit
Tasted like quail to me
Fat is flavour... especially for barbeque
Thanks!! Seen several say that fat taste bad trim it. Your second one thats said leave it.
Sending my address,I want too be adopted!
Naw, I just got two out the house🤣🤣
