Thanks Scotty! Good stuff!

If you have ever added the turtle eggs into the simmer about 5 minutes before serving and the yoke is half tender, you would be amazed at the creamy flavor it adds

If your cast iron is well seasoned the occasional tomato dish won't even hurt the thing. It is decent advice for people really new to cast iron though.

This looks like a pot of heaven!

I am not vegan or a tree hugger or a liberal or any kind of animal rights activist. That being said I would never kill a turtle ever. It’s your right if choose . I just admire them too much & see absolutely zero need in my life to even consider eating one. The Great Depression is over & I can get by on something else. Some creatures are not for my consumption simply out of respect. We don’t eat horses, cats , dogs & I put all turtles in that category. Go buy a a pound of ground beef. Freaks are eating plant based foods made in factories I’m not going that far but I will never go there.

@SmokyRibsBBQ

If it bothers you don't eat it. Each to his or hers own, but alligator snapping turtles are wild creatures, not pets. No more or less important than any other animal, reptile, fish, or mammal we consume but I must say it's much tastier than a lot of meats. If it makes you feel better, these turtles are farmed raised just for consumption. Similar to chicken or any farm animal.
