Steamers & Beer

I am not a native New Englander so when I first heard of steamers I didn't know what they were. I'm pretty adventurous when it comes to food though, so I gave them a try. At first it was a little creepy peeling the skin away from the neck and all but after the first taste- yummy, I was hooked. Today my husband and I polished off 5 lbs and a couple of Heineken's! The best thing in the world is digging for them yourself! Low tide is usually around four to six hours so you have a good window for digging. It's great being out in the sun, in the sand digging around. It makes you feel like a kid again hunting for the buried treasure. If you've never done it, you should.
