2. Cut down the alligator sirloin to bite size chunks.

3. Build a marinade using the buttermilk, hot sauce, and cajun seasoning. Stir the mix together and soak the alligator chunks for 1-2 hours.

4. Get peanut oil ready for frying. Dredge gator chunks in the seafood breading and add them to the frying pan as ready. Don't overcrowd the pan but as as many as the pan can fit. When the gator chunks start floating and its golden brown, that means it's done.
