A WWII ranger I used to work for told me how to prepare a Gar. Wish I had paid closer attention to him. He could prepare and cook anything that was legal and moved. Was an amazing outdoorsman. Sure miss him.

Anyway, he said there was white meat and yellow meat. Discard the yellow meat, cut the white meat into small pieces, bring the water to a boil, put the white meat in, salt to your liking and when the meat rises to the top, remove and eat. Said it tasted like shrimp.

Now, this has been 35 years ago he told me this, and my memory is good, but reallll short, so follow someone that has a more in depth recipe. Sure wish I had listened to him more.

Thanks to all for sharing.
