Brad Goes Crabbing & Shrimping For A Low Country Boil | It's Alive | Bon Appétit

I feel like I have to do it. start with the shrimp, yeah, so no, I mean, if you're going to make shrimp, I basically take the head off with my thumb and forefinger and then I mean look at how opaque white it is, I mean, it's so clean that I just don't see it as much anymore and then some people will start to get this seasoning out of their heads, yeah look I mean the bright white meat, isn't it almost like mini? It's like something better than lobster in a way, yes they are different but it's really sweet, the texture is amazing, to be honest it's super tasty.

You know, we basically steam them in a lightly seasoned crab and shrimp broth, I mean, too much seasoning and suddenly you're not going to taste it. That's right. that essence of the salt water that we just got from them, you know, and then the oysters, I mean, they're steamed, they're poached in their own liquor. The ones that don't, that one is perfect, yes, yes, yes, but. Like you just treat it the same way you would raw oysters and oysters are basically built where they have that little hinge there right on the back, you just want to go in and make a little pop and move these around. you can also break it up, yeah, when you get ones that are very hard to get in their own liquor, that's poached, this is perfect, it's pretty perfect, all that juice has its own juices in it, you don't have to stir it.

I know what you want to do is just slide it in, give it a little push oh look at that thing, look at this one, this one's for you, perfect Andrew, some people like to do the cookie approach, it's this little thing. We have a name we are making, it is called Gallo Carolina, what do you do first? First thing is just a little bit of horseradish, okay, I can go into the cookie, yes sir, okay, so let's make it a little bit finer. sliced ​​jalapeno, okay, okay, on top of that, oh meow, and we're going to put a little garnish, just a little garnish, this looks good and you can even put a dash of hot sauce on top of that basket, we should probably put lemon there. it's just a little squeeze I'm not wrong with that squeeze greetings greetings very good I mean very good yes I said we have to try the crabs I need to see the technique I'm going to agree with you in a way I came I'm continuing this with the lobsters and I think it will transfer with the crabs because it's like I call it a crab or a lobster shooter and we'll see how it works, they're usually loaded with their own juice so I'll put it in my mouth and then you'll break the pincher like some kind of shock in a beer Oh, really, and you'll get that really nice, like crab broth, oh, I got a nice little pinch, you already made this before the claws were a little bit higher in flavor, they've got fat, they've got a little bit more oil, much more at stake, um, I think they are absolutely, I think probably the best bite, I mean, from there, I don't know what.

The problem people is that we're just dealing with a little meat cart here, I mean this is loaded with the best crab meat you could honestly eat in my opinion, yeah, yeah, okay, you don't need anything, but if you have some butter look at that oh my gosh it's so good hey what kind of bird is that man which one is that white egret hey is that white haired egret or white egret white egret you got her eating it bunker he loves manhattan eh oh yeah , he's not going to fly anywhere with that thing in his throat, oh, he did, he didn't want some seagulls, seagulls, look at him well, Andrew, thanks again, man, because you know, you just invited me here and you know , for my first low
