Got a few pounds of fresh gulf shrimp this weekend straight out of Louisiana. had Mexican shrimp cocktail and shrimp tacos.last night .It was fabulous. Tonight was scampi with fettuccine. Probly fry some tomorrow. No comparison to store bought.
I just packaged/froze 30 pounds of Gulf shrimp. 4 bucks/pound straight off the boat.
Nothing better than fresh Gulf Shrimp, you are right, no comparison to the store bought stuff. My favorite are the White Shrimp available in the late Fall.
