Notes

Don’t skip the marinade—it makes all the difference in flavor and tenderness. Avoid overcrowding the grill; give each piece enough space to cook evenly. Experiment with different spice blends to customize the flavor to your taste. Leftover grilled alligator can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days or frozen for up to three months. Reheat gently to maintain texture. For presentation, serve on a wooden plank with fresh herbs and colorful sides for a rustic look.
