A recipe from the "Great American Writer's Cookbook" suggests slicing the snake, soaking it in vinegar with a hint of tobacco, then coating the meat in flour, salt, and pepper, and frying it in oil. Here we have a similar recipe, except that it calls for soaking the snake in buttermilk to tenderize the meat.

1 rattlesnake, skinned and cleaned
pinch of salt
pinch of cayenne pepper
pinch of black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1 cup all-purpose flour

3/4 cup buttermilk

Steps:
