Jack mackerel is a fish that lives right in our backyard of Monterey Bay and all along the Eastern Pacific. This fish is silvery in color with spines along its dorsal (top) side. Its taste is similar to a sardine and its firm, oily meat makes for a perfect barbecued dish!

Do you know how to shuck an oyster? 🤨 Follow these steps below and you'll be a pro in no time 🦪 👇🏽 1️⃣ Get your shucking knife (we love using @toadfishoutfitters) and wrap your oyster in a towel to prevent any hand-stabbing accidents. 2️⃣ Look for the hinge in the back and put your knife in then give the knife a little twist. You should feel it pop. 3️⃣ Run your knife across the top of the oyster. This will disconnect the adductor muscle and allow the shell to separate. 4️⃣ Keep an eye out for any shells that may have fallen in the oyster. Move your knife along the bottom and disconnect the oyster from the shell for easy slurping. (You can then flip the oyster in the shell if you like tho this is optional and for aesthetic purposes only.) 5️⃣ It's ready to eat! Toss it back & enjoy that amazing taste of the salty ocean. Check out Heidi's "How to Shuck an Oyster Like A Boss" video for more 🧡 and visit our shop for a wide range of amazing oyster vinegars, mignonettes, and hot sauces.🔥🌶
