Shucks has 2 Finalists in the IBSS 2009 New Product Competition!
Our new Maine Lobster Carpaccio and Maine Lobster Ceviche have both been selected as finalists in the International Boston Seafood Show 2009 New Product Competition.
Both of these products are raw, but FDA certified ready to eat! How can that be? It's the magic of our Big Mother Shucker. We treat the sealed packages with extremely high pressure, killing pathogens even more effectively than cooking. No heat, no chemicals, just water and pressure. The results are the delicious, contemporary flavors and textures of raw seafood with no risk.
Maine Lobster Ceviche is a retail package of two servings. The raw lobster meat is in one pouch and the zesty accompaniments are in another. Thaw, mix the ingredients in a bowl, chill and serve with tortilla chips. An affordable, unique lobster treat!
Maine Lobster Carpaccio is a fantastic foodservice item. Slice thin medallions from the frozen 7oz package and they quickly thaw on the plate. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle on salt, pepper, lemon zest, and garnish for a wonderfully delicious, attractive and unique appetizer. The thin slices mean each package goes a long way--toward lower food costs and lower menu prices, perfect for today's cash conscious diner.
We are proud to say that we are the only company with two finalists in this year's contest. Wish us luck, and come by our booth (2056) if you are at the seafood show next week.
