Celebrate National Seafood Month at Tuckers Shuckers!

The month of October is designated as National Seafood Month.  This is something that the best oyster restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks loves to hear!  One look at our menu clues you in to the fact that we love seafood.  Here are a few reasons that you should be a seafood lover too!




It's good for you.

Studies have been done that prove a diet rich in healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which are found in fish, lowers the risk of heart disease and might also help prevent Alzheimer's.  It aids in building cell membranes in the brain, helps control blood clotting, and even aids the body in preventing heart attacks and strokes.  Eating seafood twice a week is the suggested amount to get all of these nutrients that you need.      


It's versatile.

You can have it fried, baked, grilled, blackened, in soups, with pasta...  The possibilities are endless.  Tuckers Shuckers even features an Oyster Shooter to drink!  Absolut Peppar vodka, spicy Bloody Mary mix & sauce 5 surrounding one of our delicious oysters is quite the tasty treat.  You will find a wide variety of seafood choices on all of our menus:  starters, soups & salads, sandwiches, and entrees.     

It's delicious.

Everything we produce out of our kitchen is delicious, but we take special care in making sure that our seafood is the freshest and best flavored food on the Bagnell Dam Strip.  Here are just a few of the numerous choices that will tempt your taste buds and keep your tummy happy.  



Oysters
Our oyster menu starts you out with 7 different types to choose from.  In addition to those, we will always have a special featured oyster when you come in.  Ask your server what it is this month when you sit down to order.  



  • Oysters on the Half Shell (Mid Atlantic or featured oyster)
  • Oyster Shooter
  • Chargrilled Oysters
  • BBQ Oysters
  • Oysters Rockefeller
  • Southern Fried Oysters
  • Chargrilled Sriracha Oysters


Tuna Steak Sandwich
Ahi tuna, wasabi cream, teriyaki glaze, & creamy cole slaw on a brioche bun. 

Oyster Poor Boy
House shucked, battered, and fried oysters stacked on French bread, served with lettuce, tomato and mayo.


Lobster Mac & Cheese
Penne pasta, cheddar, gouda, parmesan, panko and white truffle oil. 


That's just a "taste" of what you can expect to find at the best seafood restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks.  National Seafood Month is a perfect excuse to stop by Tuckers Shuckers and try something new.  There is most likely something on our menu that you've never had before, and after you've tried it all, come back again for your favorites!

Your Beer Pong Practice Guide

The first of the final three Tuckers Shuckers Beer Pong Tournaments this year is coming up on Wednesday, October 7, 2015.  (Don't worry, the new year will definitely bring new tournaments!)  The best bar on the Bagnell Dam Strip has created a very popular event with these monthly tournaments, and we've given away an incredible amount of cash prizes.  

Before heading over to your favorite restaurant at the Lake of the Ozarks to sign up your team, you might want to get in a little bit of practice.  We allow up to 48 teams to enter, so the competition is stiff.  Here are a few tips on how to set up your own practice table at home. 




  • Arrange 6 or 10 plastic cups in a pyramid formation on opposite ends of a long table. Fill each of these cups with your liquid of choice, about half full. (If you are worried about making a mess or germs, fill the cups with water and drink from your own individual cup when you have to take a drink.)

  • Decide which team of two will be going first. Rock, paper, scissors is perfect for this task, or a coin flip, arm wrestling...whatever you're in to. 

  • Each team throws one ball per turn. You want the ball to land in one of the opposite team's cups. You can either toss it in directly or bounce it once on the table. Once it lands in a cup, they have to drink. That cup is then removed and the game continues.

  • Once a team loses its last cup, the other team is declared the winner. 

If you want to know the detailed rules that we play by, get yourself on over here on October 7 and we'll walk you through it.  Everything gets started at 8 pm on the second floor.  Registration ends once all of the team spots are filled, so don't be late!  We will also have DJs spinning, promo girls promoting, and lots of great drink specials for you.  That's all in addition to the best oysters at the Lake of the Ozarks, so make sure that you have dinner while you are here too.  

It seems like there was something else that we needed to mention.....
Oh yeah, the prizes!  The top three teams will get a share of $750 in cash!  Now there's some motivation to start practicing.  If you aren't one of the top finishers this time, keep at it.  We'll be doing it all over again on November 25 and December 23.


1st & 2nd place winners from our Sept. 2 Beer Pong Tournament
We've explained the basics to you, so set yourself up and perfect your game. There will be lots of people trying to win that money.  If you are hungry for some delicious food, incredible tasting drinks, and an exciting night of fun competition, then this is the event for you.  Mark your calendar's for the Tuckers Shuckers Beer Pong Tournament.  It will be here before you know it.
