Here in the Southern US, we like to roast oysters in their shells. Even better when you roast them with butter and sprinkle some cheese on top. Give it a go! Love the videos!!
Another brilliant video, well done and thank you! I way prefer an oyster uncooked and never had a bad moment from eating them that way for over 60 years. They can be fed on oatmeal for a few days if you keep changing water, they get fat and delicious. Brilliant with finely chopped shallots in red wine vinegar ( perhaps with a bit of finely chopped fresh chilli). I love them above all other food. Thanks again Smash! The channel that got me into you tube! THE CHANNEL!!
Hello sunshine. It's not fair. Now I'm hungry and have to get to work. I think I'll be doing a buy and cook with the grandkids this weekend . Much love always. Please stay safe
You're sensible to cook them ... I had a bad one (from an Essex bed) about a year ago and lordy it turned me inside out for several days. I won't go into details for fear of making you ill but man I was bad. Last time before that was maybe 15 years prior, in France. These days I often (but not always) cook oysters, and when I do it's always the same way - Oysters Kilpatrick: shuck the oysters, putting the half shell on foil or salt to stay level but keeping them in their half shells, then add a tablespoon of Worcestershire Sauce on each, then a little chopped fatty (streaky) bacon, smoked or unsmoked, just enough to cover the oyster, then under a smoking hot grill for a couple or 3 minutes, just long enough to cook & crisp the bacon and cook off the oyster. Pile up on plate and nom nom nom away you go! Cheers for another superb video fellahs ... all the best :)
GREAT RECIPE: My family from Boston loves "Oysters and Bacon" on the grill. We buy canned and cooked oysters. Wrap bacon around each one with a toothpick to hold. Put in a foil pan and cook on grill until crispy. They love them! Me... nope. ;)
Ever tried BBQ'ed oyster? You put the closed shells on a hot BBQ. They are cooked when they start spitting stream from the joining shell edges. They are much tastier than cooked oysters where the boiling water leaches out the meat taste..
Been watching your vids for years. Always good. 👍. I'm in Oz live in Queensland on the coast been a fisho since I could walk... We aren't allowed too take oysters home here they must be eaten on the spot . Pretty silly considering our coastline is loaded with them.. we have many oyster farms. If you ever come to Australia an you wanna try a good oyster. QLD Morton bay oysters have got to be the best I've had. Anyway keep the good vids coming. An cheers from OZ.
As someone in the US, I always find it baffling to see the oyster beds just sitting out there all exposed like that, where anyone can stroll around them and touch them and pick up stray fallen oysters from them. There's very little actual public land here, and what there is is usually in parks and such, where you're not allowed to just set up farms. Oyster farming here is generally done in an almost factory setup, with water being pumped into tanks in a privately-owned, fenced-off lot (... which, to be fair, does help stop invasive species from spreading).
Pacific oysters are not native, but non-invasive, since their reproduction rate and speed is so low. Also, rock oysters, which are native are so scarce in number, a few more shellfish around does not do any harm anyways. (It sucks you have the problem with purple urchin and green crabs there tho... Feels you!)
That’s why we don’t want America here in Europe everything in your country is sold and privatised here we have public set up where everyone can use the waters you just have to apply for a oyster license and they find you a spot to set up it’s not for everyone but it’s a good business on the side if you work hard at it
@@snowy1584 Lol I promise you a lot of us don't want that kind of America here in America, either. Unfortunately our entire culture and economy is so exploitation-centric that everything that isn't locked down and strictly regulated quickly becomes endangered, extinct, infected, and/or polluted, because everyone wants to make a profit and don't care what gets damaged in the pursuit of that profit. Yay!
What do ya mean chief? In most places I know if it’s basically the same setup as shown in this vid unless you’re a big company. Then it’s usually fenced off harvesting areas on private property. Most oyster beds you have to either know where they are or really really go looking for them.
As I am born and raised on Maryland's Chesapeake Bay, we cook them soaked in egg and covered in Italian Seasoning bread crumbs in peanut oil...without sweet chili sauce.🤣
You are supposed to wash those oysters. You scrub the shells with a hard bristle brush, thereby cleaning those shells and removing any dirt, sand, or debrie attached to those shells. Then put them in salt water, at least for an hour. That way they spit out any sand they may have. Now you can procced to cook them. They will taste great. Try it next time and you will see the difference.
Love your channel have been to guernsey many times.I grew up on the isle of sheppey in england and my late father had a fishing boat and we foraged for cockles winkles whelks mussels shrimps so i love eating seafood :)
My heart did a little back-flip when I saw your name…it’s my dad’s name. I’m 81 now and Dad died in 2002 at age 90. I love seeing little reminders of him on here I know he’d love to see these great videos from Jay and Sam. Thanks to all for being a part of my life!!
Here in Cornwall UK we have volunteer groups that go out and destroy the invasive Pacific rock oysters as they're extremely detrimental to the native habitat. My advice would be no pacific oyster is too small to take. The biggest I've had were over a pound in weight in the shell and they were everywhere.
Great Forage guys its appreciated the miles you walked for so little in return but thats the thing with foraging you never know what you may get #tightlines #foraging
Smash, on the news in OZ 🇦🇺 tonight they were saying because of the floods here on the East coast in NSW where I live oysters are very limited and will be selling for roughly $34 per kilo... Not sure what that equates in 💷 but you're blessed matie, Cat OZ 🙌
Omg when you said "Winkle" that was too cute lol 😄. Thank you Smash for another wonderful video. You are my husband and I's favorite! We tell everyone about you and how cool your videos are 😊
What kind of oil did you fry your oysters in or is that a secret ? At what temp OR heat setting did you fry at ? (degrees C OR low, med, high heat?) What was the approximate cooking time, professor ? Enjoyed watching you CATCH very much, really enjoyed the all the mollusk, crustacean, ichthys speciation (taxonomic info.) that you so very aptly provided with great erudition, it was MASSIVE, professor............ & COOK? Because of the video editing, cooking time couldn't be estimated, couldn't manage to read label on bottle. With all due respect, professor, you don't divulge too much in the way of cooking directions. Or, are cooking directions closely guarded proprietary information OR pending patent ?
Since you forage for shellfish and cook regularly, often taken relatively close to populated area of Guernsey, apparently close to homes at times, suggest you receive Heptavax (Hepatitis B Vaccine). As you mention watching out for bacterial contamination is good. But, that won't protect you from virus contamination. All commercially gathered oysters in US are tagged by bushel after 2 oystered per bushel have been tested negative for Hepatitis B contamination. Any shellfish taken from native waters, carries potential risk of exposure to human waste and the coliform bacteria and any virus (especially Hepatitis virus) that it may contain. Best for regular consumers of native caught shell fish to be vaccinated. In you're case there is no screening of what you catch and cook, Hepatitis doesn't require much exposure to make one ill. Hepatitis can be a real smash. Since you are young, you may have been vaccinated by NHS prior to attending public school. I recommend checking on that. Best regards, Mike Rosen, M.D.
You mean periwinkle’s are there is another thing I haven’t had in a long time I could eat them by the bowlfuls just a little bit of work to get them out and less you get the bigger escargots
I was looking for this comment. I was wondering if it’s against rules to harvest a molted lobster. I know it’s illegal to harvest a female with eggs, but wasn’t sure about freshly molted lobsters. Now I know it’s just bad eating.
I work at a oyster farm in Washington state in the us if you ever make it over here hit me up and will have the biggest oyster feed ever also I would love to show you are razor clams there much different love your channel brother
Chrismas merch available guys 🔥 smashfishing.net
Great to see you and Sam out. Fried oysters are delicious. We like to make a garlic cream sauce to go with them. Catch you on the next one 👍🇨🇦
Wow nice to see you and Sam out together again. And you did hit the honey hole on those oysters.
Here in the Southern US, we like to roast oysters in their shells. Even better when you roast them with butter and sprinkle some cheese on top. Give it a go! Love the videos!!
I have missed these foraging videos. Thank you!
Another brilliant video, well done and thank you!

Thanks again Smash!
The channel that got me into you tube!
THE CHANNEL!!
Wow, didn't know you could feed them Oatmeal.
That's so cool, thank you for your wisdom. 👍
Would love to see how Oysters come out after such a diet!
great to see Sam again
It's a smashing day to be fishing 🎣
Yeah it’s good to see Sam out with you again you know you guys usually have a good trip when you go out
Hello sunshine. It's not fair. Now I'm hungry and have to get to work. I think I'll be doing a buy and cook with the grandkids this weekend . Much love always. Please stay safe
Haha sorry mate glad you enjoyed the video
Cook them on the bbq, with butter garlic and some mozzarella cheese. They are delicious.
G on ya, wish i was able to costal forage
its relaxing to watch. and the good food
Hi Jay and Sam! Great oyster catch. Fun foraging video.
We got them here in Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic coast. Eat them raw or steamed with a saucer of cocktail sauce for dipping. Nice video.
You're sensible to cook them ... I had a bad one (from an Essex bed) about a year ago and lordy it turned me inside out for several days.

Plenty of places to grab oysters in US..just lots of mud

I finally subscribed! Your enthusiasm for fishing always cheers me up. I’m a little jealous of your life, TBH!

Which seaweeds and kelp are edible how do you cook and eat them with lobster's and crab
Are your oysters normally attached to rocks?
喜歡你的影片 永續發展的概念很好 加油！

We need people like you in the world to eat up old that nastiness. 😜🤣
Im wonder if we put lemon juice on oyster is it gonna kill any bacteria in there?
Great Forage guys its appreciated the miles you walked for so little in return but thats the thing with foraging you never know what you may get #tightlines #foraging

It must be a clean source as its a commercial oyster bed. Although they do a uv perge before being sold.
Oh boy I love oysters oh I can’t eat a half a dozen or more raw ones no hot sauce nothing just throw them back oh yummy
So good.
Where is this place? Wanna go~
Omg when you said "Winkle" that was too cute lol 😄. Thank you Smash for another wonderful video. You are my husband and I's favorite! We tell everyone about you and how cool your videos are 😊

Dude the way you just shove your hand in a lobster hole and pull it out......balls of steel my man!
Haha I’m more carful then I look on camra lol I won’t grab it untill I can see it’s tail
Hey Smash what's happened to your boat ? Miss your fishing off the boat, hope you an yours are well, top vid 👍
Are they not gritty from sand??
Give me a bucket of mussels every day over an oyster
It’s a close one for me
where is this?
Personally I'm not into cooked oysters but I do understand why you did it.
I don't understand why you don't take the soft Lobsters.
Here in Maine U.S.A. we love the soft ones. We prefer the sweeter meat from them .
Since you forage for shellfish and cook regularly, often taken relatively close to populated area of Guernsey, apparently close to homes at times, suggest you receive Heptavax (Hepatitis B Vaccine). As you mention watching out for bacterial contamination is good. But, that won't protect you from virus contamination.

15:38 I can't be the only one?
What is wrong with soft lobsters?
Liked and shared
You mean periwinkle’s are there is another thing I haven’t had in a long time I could eat them by the bowlfuls just a little bit of work to get them out and less you get the bigger escargots
You don't eat starfishes?
Where can we get the sweet chili sauce
Tesco
Pretty much anywhere tescos, asda, Aldi,sainburys take your pick.
I seriously doubt that vibrio is an issue in your waters nor shigella for that matter.
Woooooooow super
Soft lobster: the new shell is still growing/hardening. But I thought that they were very good to eat, whether the shell is hard or soft.
Full of water and jelly like,not tasty at all😩
I was looking for this comment. I was wondering if it’s against rules to harvest a molted lobster. I know it’s illegal to harvest a female with eggs, but wasn’t sure about freshly molted lobsters. Now I know it’s just bad eating.
I work at a oyster farm in Washington state in the us if you ever make it over here hit me up and will have the biggest oyster feed ever also I would love to show you are razor clams there much different love your channel brother
That’s nice if you had a rice
Soft? please explain what mean
Lobsters molt. They shed their shells and grow a new one as they grow. There’s mixed reactions as to wether they’re good eating.
leave the seaweed/beard on them until you eat/cook
Never tried a winkle or an oyster, so I’ll have to take your word for it, I’ve been told both are salty 😂
😁...no oyster is "pretty". Yumm though. None are better than those you harvest yourself.
Why can't you keep and eat soft lobsters?
I thought you just shucked an Oyester and ate it raw with a bit of lemon juice No wonder I was ill at the blackpool oyerster room
👍👍
I haven’t had cooked oysters.
Had them cooked once, but prefer them raw
is there any reason why we dont ever see you clip the tails of good quality breeding males and female lobsters?
Can’t eat row?
Anyone else skip to the cooking bit? 🤪
It’s not my favorite 🤣
Bonjour
Ou est le chien Coker anglais 😅
👏👏👍👍
could you have cleaned them and eaten them raw?
is it weird that i have eaten oysters raw since i had my first oyster as a kid and imagining myself eat a cooked oysters almost make me sick?
cant eat them..allergic as can be..I eat these,Im at the hospital trying to breathe air.
wheres your dog
