Yankees reliever Preston Claiborne is from Dallas, Texas and he apparently hunts snakes in the offseason. He puts on war paint, kills, and then skins his prey.

How will he prepare such a delicacy? He knows exactly how:

@yankeenj skewered on the grill or over an open fire. Or cut him in segments and soaked in oil with some salt and flour and brown him — preston claiborne (@olroy57) October 27, 2013

Thank you, Chef Claiborne. I don't know about anyone else, but I'd try some of that.

I think we can put the genteel Lord Preston Claiborne persona to a rest and bring forth something more rugged.
