There are many cuts of steak available, but not all are suited to being rubbed with a dry rub. The flavor of very thin steaks can easily be overwhelmed by a dry rub, so choose steaks that are thicker, at least 3/4 of an inch (2 cm). Cuts of steak with a bone in them tend to be more flavorful but require more time to cook.
Although most snakes have teeth, four rows on the top and two on the bottom, not all snakes have fangs. Only the poisonous ones do. Fangs are sharp, long, hollow or grooved teeth that are connected to a small sac in the snakeâs head behind its eyes.
In the field, Crotalus adamanteus is estimated to live an average of ten years or more and up to 20 years (Studenroth, 2001). The Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake possesses very few enemies as an adult, with only deer, pigs, and humans documented as killers of an adult snake. The name adamanteus is Latin meaning diamond or lozenge-shaped, referring to the shape of the dorsal body markings (McCranie, 1980).
