     Title: Crispy Rattlesnake Coils
Categories: Appetizers, Game
     Yield: 10 Servings

     1    Rattlesnake; cut in strips
          Flour
          Salt & pepper
          Crisco

 Cut rattlesnake into 8" strips about 1/4" thick. Salt and pepper
 lightly. Put flour into a container that can be covered. Add
 strips. Shake. Refrigerate for about 2 hours. This will allow the
 flour to become sticky and while the Crisco is heating in a deep
 fryer, pull the pieces apart and re-flour the pieces again. Add
 flour if necessary. When the Crisco shortening is hot, add only
 enough snake strips so that all pieces are covered by the hot
 grease. Fry until golden brown. Dump into a container that has been
 prewarmed in the oven. Continue frying the rest of the rattlesnake
 strips.

 Serving:

 Use a basket lined with a cloth napkin. Add the fried, coiled snake
 pieces. Cover with the napkin.

 Notes:

 The fried rattlesnake strips will appear to be coiled!
