Cut a 1 by 12 cedar board about 14" long. preheat oven to 322 degrees, lay turtle on the board flat side down, cook for 3 hours, take out throw turtle away & eat the board.

If you're in Florida, I think you'll find the season opens opens August 1st, not 7/30.

Billy has his grinnel recipe and his turtle recipe mixed up. Turtles can be good. Softshells and their eggs can be overharvested, though, in some areas.
