Here at redneck workshop 101, we have a saying "If the ladies don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy."
Also, "give a lazy man a job, he will find an easier way of doing it."
With that said, I love harvesting oysters, and eating them on a regular basis, but to me, the hard work is when it comes to washing the oysters, especially in January. I've always done it the hard way, holding each oyster in my hand and washing it. I don't like to use the wire basket washers like they have at the car wash, those beat the oysters to death, breaking off all the edges.
When edges break off, the oyster inside is exposed. This means they must immediately be cooked, or they will begin to go bad. Not only that, but when you break all the edges off, you go from pretty 3 inch oysters, down to some scrappy junk that looks awful.
So, here's my answer to both problems.....it cleans the oysters quickly, but doesn't beat them to death. I call it the redneck oyster washer.
