Authentic Tex Mex Part 2: How to Make Smoked Rattlesnake Queso

[scrumptiouschef]

Would anyone like to share their recipe for smoked rattlesnake queso?

I've been working on one since my buddy moved out to a ranch-ette in Burnet Texas and subsequently now has access to rattlesnakes.

With all the Hatch peppers around Austin right now, plentiful amounts of Longhorn cheddar and a bunch of hickory raring to go in my smoker I figure I'm set on the fixings.

It sounds like a joke but yes, rattlesnake's flavor is similar to chicken.

In my limited experience with Rattlesnake, I have found it to be way to bony, (full of tiny bones), to make anything that was easy to serve/eat. I guess if you were one long vertebrae you would have the same problem....LOL As far as I know there is no such thing as boneless rarrlesnake.
