We are proud to provide the highest quality specialty and raw seafood products we possibly can.

Handcrafted in Bayou La Batre
Our production is done in Bayou La Batre, the same place we source the best possible seafood the Gulf of Mexico has to offer. We make most every item–from our famous crab cakes to our stuffed shrimp–with my mother, Susan Taylor and late grandmother, Becky Nickels recipes. Both were born and raised in Bayou La Batre. Some of our recipes are 35 – 60 years old.

Domestic Wild-Caught Seafood
We use only domestic, wild-caught seafood sourced from fishermen who we are proud to call family and friends. Purchasing seafood from the people we trust most ensures that we know how our product is handled from the moment it’s caught in the nutrient-rich waters of the Gulf of Mexico until it’s on your table. This allows us to offer our customers the highest quality product with the freshest possible ingredients.

IQF / Flash Frozen is Fresher
Our products are flash frozen or IQF “Individually Quick Frozen” and never thawed before reaching the consumer. Most of our specialty products are meant to be cooked frozen and ready to serve in 30 – 60 minutes. The shelf life of the majority of our products, specialty and raw seafood, are a minimum of a year with a few being well over 4 months. They are great to have in the freezer at all times for a quick gourmet meal at home or to travel with.

We are doing another version of Pad Thai at the Market at Pepper Place, and this week we are using shrimp from @bayougourmet!
Treat yourself to the irresistible taste of Pad Thai! 🍤 With stir-fried rice noodles, succulent shrimp, and a blend of tamarind sauce for a tangy twist, palm sugar for sweetness, and fish sauce for a savory umami punch, every bite is a symphony of sweet, sour, and salty flavors. Finished with crunchy peanuts, zesty lime wedges, fragrant chives, and crisp bean sprouts for an added layer of freshness and texture. ✨

#NationalShrimpDay 🦞 Barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, sauté it, fry it. No doubt about it - there`s more than one way to enjoy "the fruit of the sea," aka America`s favorite seafood.
Meet @Bayou_La_Batre native Ryan Taylor, owner @bayougourmet. He`s proud to use only domestic, wild-caught seafood sourced from fishermen he knows. 🙌 This is key because it means he knows HOW products are handled from the moment they`re caught in the nutrient-rich waters of the Gulf of Mexico until it`s on your table!
🎣 Choose between favorites like red or white shrimp, scallops, and ahi tuna steaks to handcrafted items like bacon-wrapped shrimp with crab meat stuffing and crawfish pie.
What makes buying locally better? 🥰 The connection you make with real people who catch, grow, and make your food. ✨ Bayou Gourmet`s recipes are rich in family history - passed down from his mother, Susan Taylor and his late grandmother Becky Nickel.
👉 Ways to support this family-owned, Alabama business:
every Saturday at the market, shop their website, follow their social for local delivery options, and find their products at @ashleymacs @homewoodgourmet #pastryartbakeshoppe @murderpointoysterco & @northrivercattleco

Happy to inform everyone in Mobile… I have a great friend, Hartley Winter, taking orders and delivering in the area.

Please don’t hesitate to contact her @ 251-709-8671 or Hartleywinter@gmail.com for our product list and simple instructions for delivery.
I’m beyond excited to have Hartley help out and if you have ordered from me in the past, you know how simple we make it for you. Just leave a cooler out!
Birmingham, I’m still delivering and most of you know how it works. Text me @ 205-585-3108 or I’ll be at Pepper Place every Saturday morning until 12:00, through December!
Also, Birmingham only, it’s 🦞 season and I take orders weekly but cut-off for Friday deliveries, are every Wednesday.
Crawfish are strictly pre-orders and I only sell whole sacks of “live”🦞, “I Do Not Cook or Have Cooked Crawfish for sell”.
Thank you all for your continued support and Hartley, Thank you!
