I was cleaning the jumbos Cap't Frank kept for grillers and my dog Angel realized I was cleaning S~ H~ R~!~M~P~~~!!! Now Angel invented a dogsport called shrimpthieving, and suddenly her face got that R Those SHRIMP????? LOOK !!!! Now those who've seen her shrimpthieving . can attest to her skill at it. she is superproficient and nails a haul! The doggirl does love shrimps right out o the bucket hopping and jerking, heck don't put a bucket down without a lid , or leave the cooler open she is a bottomless feeder when there is shrimp!!! On my Whaler she puts her head over the bucket and whatever jumps out she eats, then repeats! Well, she knew the drill and came a woofing saying shrimps I want shrimps please o please mama just give me a shrimp~~~~ She said it so prettily and sat wagging and wriggling and smiling, brow wrinkled with anticipation intently pleading AND I~~~tossed her a shrimp.....well...she turned and ran shaking it up and down then stopped and turned looking at me and spit her shrimp on the floor! I looked and got up and looked again whereupon she grabbed it chomped on it and spit it again!!! SHE sat and pouted for Oak Hill Shrimp! Can you believe my dog has such great CULINARY TASTE?? I had to laugh at her depite the fact that I like my Okies too. Just thought to share this gem with you! If life is measured by family and friends, I am the wealthiest woman in the world!

I felt bad voting for one over the other and here is the reason why: As far as peel and eat shrimp went, the browns over the whites had my vote. The browns were actually 'VISIBLY' more appealing. They had a deeper, redder contrast and color and were larger in the size department. Now granted, this doesn not equate to flavour but mentally one subconciously will have higher expectations for one over the other by the simple voting with their eyes. As flavour went the brown was slightly sweeter in flavour to my tongue. I even experimented (while no one was watching of course) and touched both shrimp to my tongue without biting into them. The browns let off a sweetness even by a simple touch. The whites did not. NOW LET ME CONTRADICT MYSELF...... Franks & Glendas fried WHITE shrimp were some of the best fried shrimp I have had in a long, long time. Even over my own fried shrimp recipe (which I have been using for years and years). The fried shrimp were sweet, crunchy and yet delicate and juicy on the inside. They simply 'popped' with flavour and I am not sure why the contrast of the fried was so much different over the peel-and-eat shrimp. So there you have my $.02 not that it matters. But it was fun to type. My overall vote would be on the Fried white shrimp. But seeing how this was a peel-and-eat competition I had to vote for the Brown. I hope the white shrimp population understands the toil and grief and difficulty I had in placing this vote. fb

Alan's wife, Pat Canetti and I were taste testing and we said hands down the white shrimp are better "fried". We agreed for peel and eats they are bland with a sweet taste trying to poke thru the blandness. I don't eat fried shrimp often, so it is not something I would do. The little bit I got at the mini were FANTASTIC and had to commend Frank's frying skills. That oil was perfect. Yes, if somebody will go thru the mess of frying, I will eat the whites ALL day long! My reality is I am not real domestic, so simplicity works for me....a little 1.5 min sautee in EVOO/salt with lemon juice and I am done. Peel and eats are another quick meal, so for me....it is Oakie for my habits. WEBSITE T-SHIRT Store $UPPORT this site - BUY A SHIRT/CLICK HERE

I unloaded all the Okies straight away into the peel and eat cook station and none were reserved for frying. My fave of the day was the smoked fish and then the buffalo fried shrimp. A great little bonus too all the fish from James and the hammerhead from Newken! If life is measured by family and friends, I am the wealthiest woman in the world!

Next year, I will bring Oakies cleaned, de-shelled and ready for batter....we have to know! Or. When we do our Oak Hill MiniNar for winter shrimping [teaching only, daytime], we will fry up some Oakies and give them a taste test. Folks need to taste the brown and pinks to motivate them to continue with us to learn how to winter shrimp. They are so darn good, folks will dip for them for sure once they get to sample their yummy-ness. I got to say it again, the food was YUMMY....and 'Bro really shared his prize fish and just took this mini to a whole new level! What a great feast it was!

That should have shifted the taste test in favor of the fresh whites. I must admit that the fried shrimp were awesome, but I think if compared to fried Oakies, the choice would have been as obvious as with the boiled.
