Gulf Brown Shrimp product options
We primarily offer our fresh-caught Gulf Brown Shrimp in one of two ways;
- Head-On: Simple as it sounds, we leave the head on the shrimp. Many shrimp lovers use the head of the shrimp for everything from soups to sauces.
- Head-Off: Most commonly, these shrimp will be cooked and by removing the head of the shrimp, we are simply saving the chef some time in the kitchen. For obvious reasons, we charge a bit more per pound for Gulf Brown Shrimp with the head removed before calculating the poundage.
