You realize that's a dime next to the turtle, right?

He's the size of an M & M.

I don't think dietary advice was the type of response Pat was looking for.

Yeah, I wasn't expecting recipes on how to cook them up. LOL

Ingredients
10 pounds turtle meat, without bones
8 pounds chicken meat with bones
8 pounds boneless pork roast
10 large onions, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
6 pounds potatoes - peeled and cubed
2 cups butter
2 quarts half-and-half cream
2 gallons milk
Directions
1.Place the turtle, chicken and pork meat into separate pots with enough water to cover the meat. Bring each one to a boil, and cook until tender. Discard the water from the turtle and pork, but save the chicken stock. Debone all of the meat, tear or cut into bite-size pieces, and set aside.
2.In a very large stockpot, combine the three meats, onion and reserved chicken stock. Bring to a boil, and cook until the onions are tender, about 45 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Potatoes can be prepared during this time.
3.Add the potatoes and butter to the stockpot, and cook for about 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are not quite cooked through. Reduce heat to low, and let the soup simmer down. Stir in the half and half cream and milk. Bring the soup to a simmer, and cook for about 15 minutes. Be careful not to curdle the dairy by getting it too hot. Serve soup hot with crackers.

Whaaaaaattt?!?



NO gravy?!? *smack*

Found a turtle on a jobsite. We replaced a roof at a DEP facility and the boss asked us to throw away some pallets they had stacked up.

It looks like it worked it's way into the botton pallet, but not out. It stunk like old fish.

I linked it for the squeamish.
