Oyster Season!


MMMM-mmmmm! I haven't enjoyed my first fresh, hot, salty, slippery roasted oyster yet this year, but this article had me rummaging around for my knife! Yum! Just one more reason to be glad you live in this gorgeous land of delights . . .

Thinking of how to explain the significance of the oyster roast here in the Lowcountry I couldn't do better than the monogrammed knives pictured here. We love them and take them pretty seriously!

"October has an "R" in it, and this means that oyster roast season is upon us. Bring out your best shucking knife and dive into SCIway's new South Carolina Oyster Guide, where you'll find delicious recipes, fun festivals, oyster shell recycling information, and a history of our state's once-great oyster industry."
