Lynn's BBQ Turtle Steak

3 lb Turtle steak
6 x Limes
1/4 cup Olive oil
1/2 tsp Garlic powder
1 x Garlic clove
    Freshly-ground white pepper to taste
    Salt to taste

 Method :
Clean and rinse the turtle well. Cut into steaks 1/2- to 3/4-inch in thickness. Squeeze the lime juice into a 9- by 12-inch baking dish. Rub the cut lime into the steak, "you should get the oil of the peel into the steak". Rub the steaks with cut garlic clove, lightly sprinkle with salt and place them into the lime juice, refridgerate for 1 hour.
Remove from lime juice, brush with lots of olive oil, sprinkle with white pepper and garlic powder, add more salt if necessary. BBQ over hot coals until the steaks are tender.
A fresh green salad, corn fritters or hush puppies along with some herb rice are excellent
