A Big Fatty


   Oyster season is upon us. Those months with the letter "R" somewhere in the name.  For me, I like to eat oysters year round, however there is some truth to this saying. Pictured above is a big ol' fatty Whaleback from the Damariscotta river. It's nearly twice the size as it was two months ago and the meats fill the shell. 
  In the fall , oysters start packing on fat for the long winter just like bears do. The flavor profile changes along with the seasons as well. Just like kobe beef, more fat = more flavor.
