    About the event

    Hands-on oyster shucking

    UO Oyster Masterclass is an interactive oyster shucking masterclass and tasting experience at The Urban Oyster, a restaurant in Baltimore. The format centers on learning proper oyster shucking techniques, so the class is built around practical instruction as well as tasting.

    The event is scheduled at The Urban Oyster’s address on W 36th St in Baltimore.

    Oysters, pairings, and takeaways

    The tasting covers Chesapeake Bay oysters and oysters from the northern Mid-Atlantic coast. The class also addresses flavor profiles and varietal differences between those oyster regions, pairing the shucking lesson with a more specific comparison of oyster types rather than presenting the tasting as a general seafood sampler.

    Food and drink details are limited but specific: the experience includes dressed oysters, small bites, and wine pairings. It also includes a takeaway Urban Oyster shucking kit, which ties the session’s hands-on technique component to an item participants take with them after the class.
