Don't know if this will help or not, but all of the Oysters I've seen in local markets appear to be Phoenix. I would think that Golden's would sell well due to their nice coloration, but I don't know if there is any big taste difference b/w the different Oysters.

Gee Elsie, how do you do it?

Not sure about the other Oysters but I've had pink before and they look great and taste great (as long as you cook them)! Uncooked oysters, as I'm sure most know, are horribly sour/bitter.

Hell, I think they taste pretty good.

I think yellow oysters when cooked fairly crisp are the tastiest of the oysters. I don't think yellow oysters sell well, most people do not know how good they taste.

Yes yellow and eryngii are by very far the bests oysters. Yellow are easy to sale if you can keep them in one piece. They are so fragile that they brake during transportation and manipulations.

The Phoenix is supposedly one of the tastiest of the Oyster strains. I'll let you know in a couple weeks. lol

might also consider which will give you more in return, although the pheonix and pink taste great, they rearly get more than 3 tiny flushed. i have found the regular or brown species oyster give better performance.

I could be wrong about this, but you might want larger than a 12 quart pressure cooker if you're going to go "commercial" as you say. At the very minimum, I'd get the largest All American Cooker, 41 quart I believe.
