Rougarou Shuckers / New Orleans

ABOUT US

Rougarou Shuckers is run by husband-and-wife team Clayton and Shahinoor. We started the business because we love seafood and the way it brings people together.

We work our events ourselves, preparing and serving oysters and seafood on site rather than simply dropping off food.

Meet the People Behind Rougarou

Shahinoor | Roots & Hospitality

Raised in Lafayette, Shahinoor grew up surrounded by Cajun food traditions. She manages seasoning, sourcing, and event coordination, bringing the same attention to a large wedding as a family gathering.

Clayton | Oysters & the Boil

Clayton’s background includes French kitchens in New York and New Orleans and developing restaurant raw bar programs. His expertise spans oyster sourcing, shucking, and the preparation of Louisiana crawfish boils.

Oysters From Every Coast

Louisiana oysters are central to Rougarou, but our relationships with growers and distributors also allow us to offer oysters from Maine, Massachusetts, Prince Edward Island, and the Pacific Northwest.

Guests can explore oysters from different regions or select a service tailored to their preferences.

What We Do

Raw Oyster Bars

Freshly shucked oysters served on ice with house-made mignonettes and citrus.

Live Seafood Boils

On-site crawfish, Gulf shrimp, and blue crab boils, prepared and served hot.

Full-Service Event Catering

From courtyard weddings and corporate events to birthdays and private celebrations, we handle setup, service, equipment, and cleanup.

Our Seafood Standards

We prioritize carefully selected seafood, including hand-graded Louisiana crawfish and boutique Gulf oysters, and maintain sourcing standards for our catering services.
