I Buttermilk Brined GATOR and Deep Fried It… This Was Unreal

Today we’re taking gator to another level. I cubed up fresh alligator filets, soaked them in a buttermilk brine for maximum tenderness, then dredged them in a seasoned coating and deep fried them until perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy inside. To finish it off, I hit them with Big Wick’s Texi-Cajun Ranch Seasoning and made a homemade ranch dipping sauce using the same flavor profile. The combo of crunch, heat, and creamy ranch takes these fried gator bites over the top. If you’ve ever wondered how to cook alligator so it’s NOT chewy — this is the method.
