GOOD NEWS!!
First batch of shell and shucked Gulf Oysters will be here on Thursday December
16th!!
Get your pre-orders in by Friday the 17th at 10AM for CHRISTMAS WEEK.
Yeah, I know you have to think ahead, but it's a once a week truck with the good
stuff and I have to let them know by that date so you can have it.
Due to the crazy price market right now, price per dozen will have to be figured
when the oysters get here. It is because the price is based on the count of oysters
in a 40 pound box.
40 pound boxes are currently [ ] plus tax for absolutely beautiful washed
oysters, not muddy ugly things like someone else has. No mud pies here, folks!
After this, we'll have fresh oysters straight through Father's day in June.
Floyd's prides ourselves in having the nicest, freshest, juiciest Gulf of Mexico shell
and shucked oysters in the South. Floyd's has sold top quality Nelson's brand
oysters from Bon Secour Fisheries in Alabama and other sources for over 35
years. All our oysters are safe and certified and come from licensed producers in
AL, LA and TX. They come with tags that show when and where they came out of
the water and we keep these health tags on file for 90 days by law.
Our oysters are NEVER frozen and NEVER imported.
Larry is our in-house oyster Quality Control Monitor,he checks each batch that
comes in for juiciness, flavor and quality. (Quit eating all the oysters, Larry, leave
us some to sell, darn it!) Larry also gives FREE oyster shucking (opening a shell
oyster) instructions if you need to learn how.
Peak time to get the BEST oysters is Thanksgiving thru Fathers Day,
when the water is coldest.
WHERE THEY COME FROM
We get our fresh oysters from Louisiana, Texas and Alabama.
WHEN WE GET THEM
Shipments come in two times per week: Wednesdays and Fridays.
WHAT WE GET
We get fresh oysters in the shell by the box.
We get fresh shucked oysters in their own juice in gallon containers.
HOW WE SELL THEM
We sell shucked oysters by the half pint, pint, quart, half gallon or gallon. We sell
shell oysters by the single oyster, dozen or by the full box. Boxes weigh 35
pounds and contain between 6 and 9 dozen oysters in the shell, depending on
their size.
Boxes are filled by weight, not number. Boxes are filled down on the Gulf and
shipped to us.
HOW TO ORDER OYSTERS
Please order in advance to be guaranteed to have oysters for your
weekend parties. We keep extra fresh oysters on hand that we sell first come, first
serve, but keep in mind, they come from the Gulf and have to be brought in 2
times per week, so when they're gone, they're gone! Order by closing time
Saturday for Thursday, Friday and Saturday pickup the following week.
