I'd never successfully shucked an oyster before, yet had almost put the knife into my hand at least twice trying. After watching this video, I shucked 108 oysters for a Super Bowl party without injury. Thank you!

I love straight to the point videos about food/cooking. I love charbroiled oysters and think I can do better than the restaurants
This is a better explanation than most, watching for the shell to "give" it happens quick when it happens. I have been trying a new skill lately, shucking oysters. Nice reward for you your efforts!
Before shucking oysters I like to pick up my Cell Phone and dial 9-1..... then I start to work!

Yesterday, just for laughs, I bought some raw oysters from the grocery store. I started to try opening them and then I realized that the disaster potential was high. I am glad that I hesitated and watched this video before I proceeded any further. The potential disaster wound up being an enjoyable experience. I did however have to improvise on the oyster knife, as I had no such thing available. Thanks for posting.

Very nice. Thank you so much. You make it mush easier than the way I've been doing it. And safer, too.
You should try the East Hampton Shucking tool, it's the safest and easiest way to open oysters. It keeps your hand away from the knife. You won't hurt yourself.
Nice video. Clear, concise and to the point.
Wow! Dan sure looks young in this video!
Just Shucked 42 oysters that are different species thanks to this video! Very Safe and works really well!!!
Thank you for posting. Very helpful with protecting the hand. I had to use a screwdriver as I don't have an oyster knife.
Awesome tutorial. Got a new subscriber. Was fun and informative to watch. Great video
It works! Thanks so much. How easy.
This is the video that finally helped me shuck an Oyster tonight. Thank you very much!
Look how young Dan looks here! Definitely a tad more camera-groomed these days. Still, very enjoyable vid. Great tips. Thanks.
I had never shucked oysters before and this video was great! Made me feel like a real pro!!
That was a great looking oyster! Lots of Ouster Liquor!
Thank you
this video allowed me to do successful battle with a dozen Cape May oysters.
See I thought this is how I do it, but I never get them open this easily. I need a big bag of oysters to practice with now!
谢谢您的详细讲解🙏
That's shucking awesome.
Worked for me, a first-time shucker.
Thanks.
made things easy!
I shucked oysters for the first time in my life tonight and it went otherwise successful thanks to this video.
There's another video that says the hinge way is the primitive way and that the oyster should be opened from the front.

For real? Or are you indulging in some double entendre ? : )
i'm such a dummy, i saw this video awhile back and was easily able to shuck some oysters I picked up and now I just got some more and couldn't figure it out. I always assume the hinge is not the place to go... i'll probably forget again and come back once more but at least it's here should I need reference hehe
This video is safe and effective.
Technique is good except for the widdling motion used on the oyster. This grates debris from the oyster and it falls into the liquor.
I have
shigoku?
I just shucked ten oysters for the first time thanks to this video
