Check this topic for Sauce Piquant.
As for the meat.....start calling seafood markets. There is Ole Holdbrook Fresh Fish Market on Hwy 171 about a mile north of I-10 in Lake Charles that usually sells Turtle, not sure if they have it this time of the year. 1-337-439-9554 |

There is a place on the Bayouside in Matthews, it's a big white building called Adams Fruit Stand. They sell Turtle meat. Not sure on the price. If you've never stopped in there stop in and check it out. They sell everything from fireworks to hot sauasge po-boys to turtle meat. He has one of every kind of amimal in the swamp mounted. It's like walking back in time when you go in there.

To me, turtle meat is way too expensive for the taste. You can cook a just as good or better sauce with much cheaper meat. Stuff is like $15 a pound over here. I bought it once, but never again. Now if you can catch one then that's another story.

Used to fill the boat with soft shell turtles in north LA in a creek behind camp. Makes excellent table fare although we left the cooking to an old coonass named Mike. Really wish I would have been more involved in the cooking process but after cleaning 100+ lbs of turtle meat it was time to hit the whiskey
