Smoky Rattlesnake Chili
Pitmaster note: If you can’t find rattlesnake meat in your area, you can order it online, either smoked in a can or from a site like exoticmeats.com. Alternatively, you can use boneless, skinless chicken thighs, which makes things just a tad easier!

Let's get grilling
Add the beans in the last 15 minutes of cooking. Season to taste and serve hot, with cheese, sour cream, diced avocado and cilantro, for garnish.
