Are Apalachicola Oysters the Best In The World?

I really think they are - think I've had about 15 kinds and while I like Oregon oysters too, there's nothing like an oyster from Apalachicola!

Even better if you eat them in Apalachicola while looking at the water.

Been to Apalachicola once...went to a little place...what was it...Indian Pass? Anyway, lovely town.

One of my favorite dives is Dusty's in PCB. Wonderful, salty oysters, Scotty shucking them, and a buck beer. Can't beat it.

Sitting on the dock at an Apalach oyster joint eating them raw and throwing shells into the river is a highlight.

yes!

where is the oyster smilie face around here?

Agreed, top 2 if not number one! Dusty's and Hunt's depending on which side of the Hathaway Bridge I am on!

Papa's Joe in Appalach, great oysters!

Gene's Oyster Bar at Sherman and 3rd in PC is excellent, if you find yourself at the far end of PC.

You just ruined Smiling Joe's secret. :cool:

As to the original question, YES!

I've had oyster from all over the world and flat out I can say that there is nothing better than an Apalachicola oyster. They are unique and the flavor cannot be duplicated.

You missed out on some awesome ones tonight kurt. We still have some, perhaps you and Teresa will get some tomorrow.

Apalachicola oysters are the best but Malpeque oysters are most excellent.I tried these in Vancouver a few years ago and I have to say,they were very good.Malpeque are small but deep cupped and have a very buttery finish.$15.00 a half dozen and well worth it.

Eating raw oysters in a oyster bar is fine but the real satisfaction from a purists standpoint is buying your own bag,drowning them in deep ice in a good cooler and shucking your own in the driveway with a ample supply of Eds Red hot sauce or Crystal hot sauce if Eds is not available...followed by ice cold Corona beers.

And that is how we did it last night, except not in the driveway, but on beautiful Grayton Beach, yum!

We know a good shucker and he does it for fun!

Gotta plug Shrimper's for the oysters. $30.00/box and we had plenty to go around. They also pack them in your cooler for you.
