North Carolina Oyster Festival is up Next

If you’re from around the NC or SC coast (or you’ve ever visited) then you probably have tried one of our favorite marine delicacies… Oysters.

We steam them, fry them, stew them.  We eat them on the half shell, in soup, in casseroles and any other way we can get ‘em.  To sum it up… we  eat them and we love them.  ( My favorite way to enjoy them is right out of the steam pot.  Pry open the shell, add a drop or two of hot sauce and pop ‘em right into your mouth. Yum! Yum! )

And this weekend we’re going to celebrate them.  That’s right, the cool months of the year are the perfect time for oysters which means it’s also the perfect time to gather with a whole bunch of friends (say 45,000 or so) and pay homage to the mighty mullusk.
