What else you got?

properly cleaned. and there are places where the shucker wont serve you a crappy oyster, others where if they can open it, they serve it.

That is spot on Tim.

Thanks for the shout out.

Living in N.La... its hard to find well prepared and good sized oysters.




headed to NO for the weekend though! Oysters will be consumed.

Im assuming the oysters are still alive and they will clean themselves out??

Yes. Put them in an ice chest...rinse the shite out of them. Cover them with clear water and add the salt and ice. I forgot to make it clear that they are covered in water.

But they clean themselves out...soak up the salt water and get plump and full. No dried up, shriveled oyster. Salty, juicy, and delicious.

Just add your favorite hot sauce and its on. Damn...now I have to go to Tony's and get a sack.

You can put an order in at Cpt. Avery's Monday-Wednesday and pick up a fresh sack Friday. They're quality oysters.

---

nice. thanks for the info.

nope - shreveport. i might be willing to drive to monroe for a sack though

this is a deal breaker for me, but some places do not rinse their oysters (lazy bastards). It absolutely kills my oyster buzz when i get some of the crunchy sand/marsh mud in my mouth. Shame on you non-rinsers! you know who you are
