shrimp

I just had a conversation with a family member who believes the fresh shrimp in Mobile are much better than the ones in Seagrove area. Any truth to this idea?

I think a taste test is definitely called for. Several pounds of BOTH varieties side-by-side. Otherwise how are you going to know?

Good idea becasue that means I HAVE to make a trip to SoWal! Just needed a valid reason to skip work. :funn:

I have not noticed any shrimp boats in Seagrove.

Yes you are correct, so where is the seafood in the area come from?

there is usually a shrimp boat parked at the 331 bridge. My brothers always buy shrimp there and say it's good.

They're still alive? LOL. I've seen the boat, but I'm scared to buy there. We always buy at Goatfeathers.

Yup , I think it the heads on stuff too. They claim the shrimps have more flavor that way

That might be why if you go to a good Cajun restaurant, like K-Paul's, they still have the heads on. Actually if you've ever lived in NOLA as I have, bought a bushel of crawfish, sucked the heads, and thrown the remains into Lake Pontchartrain (while drinking Dixie beer), you'd understand.

Forget the mudbugs, but give me the Dixie beer. Love that stuff! :clap_1:
