I like to wait till I get about 8 or 10 of em and season them real good with salt, pepper, Tony's and garlic. I then place them in a cast iron pot and sear themtill I get a good brown. I then add water, onions. bellpepper, whole garlic cloves and roux. I let that simmer for about 2-3 hrs, depending on how hungry I am. Im telling you when you, when its doneit will make you want to slap your momma. If your interested in a good backstrap recipe I have one of them too.
