Stone crab season has arrived.
October’s Chef & Shucker brings together two Blue Island favorites: freshly shucked oysters and one of the most anticipated catches of the season.
Claws & Corks is a hands-on afternoon of oysters, stone crab, chilled seafood, and cocktails designed to celebrate the start of stone crab season.
You’ll learn what separates oysters from different growing regions, how to taste for salinity, sweetness and minerality, and — most importantly — how to shuck your own.
Then Chef Brett will build on the experience with a multi-course tasting featuring seasonal seafood and touches of stone crab.
And because cold seafood deserves an equally cold drink, expect thoughtfully paired wines alongside properly chilled gin and vodka martinis.
Your experience includes:
• Guided oyster shucking instruction
• Fresh oysters from multiple regions
• Oyster education, tasting notes & merroir
• A multi-course chef tasting featuring seasonal stone crab
• Curated wine & martini pairings
• Blue Island history and oyster sourcing stories
• Your own Blue Island shucking knife to take home
Stone crab season meets the half shell.
CLAWS & CORKS
Location: Blue Island Oyster Bar – Lone Tree
Date: OCTOBER 11
Time: 4 PM
Upon ordering, your ticket will be held at Will Call.
