Not in my humble opinion, K2. Rattlesnake tastes more like turtle than chicken.

ksquared,

re: Does rattlesnake taste like chicken?

Actually, it does. Really!

Rustlers' Rooste at The Pointe South Mountain in Phoenix offers rattlesnake when it is "in season". Never figured out what that meant unless it specifies the time when their snake wrangler got drunk enough to actually go out and catch snakes <LOL> Anyway, I've dined on rattlers several times, they are good, and they do taste just like chicken.

Ksquared, it really depends on how much Venom you use to spice it up. I prefer mine mild so I only use half of the snake's venom. Using all of it makes a rattlesnake taste like horse meat. <GGG> In all honesty I only eat it anymore when it is part of a wild game dinner at a Texas Wildlife Assn., Ducks Unlimited, or Safari Club International, function. We've killed so many over the years and if/when something isn't done to/with the dead snake the smell makes you glad you don't do autopsy's for a living.
