How to Shuck an Oyster

Last weekend I was lucky enough to spend the sunny Saturday enjoying beer and fresh shucked oysters at San Francisco's OysterFest. Hosted by O'Reilly's Productions, the event — that featured several bands like Juliette and the Licks — drew more than 15,000 people. I spent part of the afternoon at the "Oyster Information Center" where I learned how to shuck an oyster. To check out the proper technique for oyster shucking, please click the "Start" button.
