Grilled Alligator with Comeback Sauce (Cajun)

Alligator is very mild and takes on the flavors of the rubs and sauces you use to marinate it. The fattier portions of the meat have a texture similar to lobster. The leaner portions have a texture similar to juicy pork chops.

Alligator:
1 lb frozen alligator sirloin, thawed
2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. Code 3 Spices Sea Dog Rub
1 tsp. garlic powder

Comeback Sauce:
½ cup mayonnaise
2 Tbsp. ketchup
2 Tbsp. chili sauce
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp. Code 3 Spices Sea Dog Rub
¼ tsp. sea salt
¼ tsp. black pepper, freshly ground
¼ tsp. garlic powder
¼ tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. lemon juice, freshly squeezed
a couple of dashes of hot sauce

Rinse the alligator, and pat it dry. Cut it into 12-14 equal-sized pieces.

Season:
Rub with olive oil, Sea Dog Rub (or your favorite Cajun seasoning) and garlic powder. Let rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. Heat the grill to high.

Make Sauce:
While it's resting, combine the ingredients for the Comeback Sauce. Add as much hot sauce as you like for your taste.

Grill:
Skewer the meat, and grill for 5 minutes per side.

Serve:
Serve with the sauce.

Makes 4 servings.
