    Do the sea gulls follow you around when you clean the fish that you just caught?Ends are good as on roast beef,pork butt etc.A close friend of mine runs a Italian deli and now it seems that I have to make a phone call and get on a reserve list.Learn something new every day here.

    i used to ask for boiled ham ends back in school for peasoup, used to make big cheap batches. never thought to ask for this stuff. 5 ends at 2.5 pounds total were in the pack, on the meat slicer i got 20 good slices from one end for the shrimp and a little bit of scrap for the dog. 4 ends to go. theres always gulls behind the boat, they seem to hang out in front of the house too :blink: they were a tad dry but usable, tonight im giving a quick soak in olive oil and mabe some balsamic before wrapping the shrimp. bet the deli has a use for them already where the local supermaket was just unloading them, but it never hurts to ask

    i guess i didnt word that right :laugh: anyways you need to be careful with gulls, the ones near the dump taste great, but the ones near the sea have an oily fishy taste

    Fishlessman,

    I hadn't thought of those in ages, I usually buy the procuittini. There was an Italian market near my old house that saved them for me, The bones made a great stock.

    didnt make the sauce, had the ingrediants. went with some parmesian cheese in some, but found that took away from the horseradish. finished off the shrimp last night, really like them , simple and reletively quick to make
