we cook and eat prawns all the time but never been able to get that salt to water ratio correct. did everything you said right down to brown sugar. PERFECTION!! whole family agreed its a winner. when we all get together and boys start watching fishing vids I ask for yours. always enjoy. cheers
Just a tip, to chill water fast add salt to it. To boil water fast don't add the salt at the start, wait for the rolling boil then add it, you'll find it will come to the boil faster.
Great vid Sammy and some great tips on cooking the prawns, maaate gunna have to head to the Caboolture river if i get a chance as they looked so good. Bloody Shauno gotta tape a bucket and sponge to him next time so he helps washing the boat lol. Really informative video by the pancake kid and maybe Shauno can be the cup cake caster cheers Muzz
ordered 500g of the tiger prawns cooked and 500g of the green uncooked this year for chissy best fish shop ive been to first time cooking green prawns will do a garlic butter with some chives or something good fun
Rod Ashford mate it really does vary from trip to trip. I’ve always liked the run out, but this year it seemed to be either the top or the bottom of the tide that fired
Welldone bud. I miss my tinny now. Best time of year for prawns and mudcrabs at the mo. I cook em the same as you but add a couple onions to the hot water.
@@SammyHitzkeFishing Yeah I like the flavour. And reckon white onions are better. I cut em into quarters and throw em in. He he I cook my mudcrabs in beer and onions, VB is a good cooking beer, maybe not for drinking though.
Hey Sammy good haul mate. Is there a reason you don’t cook them in the salt water they’re caught in? Is it better than cooking them in sea water?? Just wondering mate? Lovin’ ur work
Dammmmmmn been hitting the Logan waiting for them sukkahs to come down.. would you happen to know how long prawns stay in a particular area before moving? Or are they constantly on the move??
yeah they move around a lot mate. they can be there one day and gone the next. but on the smaller tides they do usually hang around the area for a couple of days.
You should try the Louisiana brand of crab and seafood boil mix. It will give your shrimp or crab a bit of a kick in flavor. Let me know if you have tried it if not I can send you some.
There's too much water when you boil it, it will be a lot tastier when you boil it with a small amount of water. Or I usually cook it without adding water so it will boil in its own juice so there is no chance of the flavour getting washed out by the water. Nice video.
I disagree actually mate, I find as long as you adjust the salt content to suit the amount of water the flavour remains A+. In saying that, if your method is working for you keep at it!
ben learmonth hey Mate, not too sure actually, the old boy put it on to water dripping all over the screen while he’s casting. I’ll hit him up and find out what it is 👍
geksii haha yeah mate, he’s great fun to have in the boat! Ahhhh yes, I’m glad you noticed because a lot of time and money went into getting that audio right! I use a rode video mic on the back camera and a lapel mic on the front camera. Gives me good quality audio from both 👌👌
Sammy Hitzke Fishing appreciate the reply! It sounds good on all my platforms mate, tv, headphones, computer speakers! Don’t change a thing :) good work!
cheers mate! appreciate the support. Oh that sucks, best bet would be to jump on the seq prawning an crabbing pages on facebook. everyone always shares where the prawns are running on there.
a year later..rona virus is here. only thingkeeping me sane is throwing the net from the pontoons in the albert, acroos the road..few bananas around still
Hey mate, have you had any dramas with your motorguide? I got a 60" 24v xi5 in December last year and ive had gps issues, remote issues and now a cracked motor magnet.
@@keith2j The salt is all that is needed. These prawns have a lot more natural flavor than crawfish. Though you can do a "Crawfish Boil" style cook with prawns (Shrimp). Oldbay season goes good.
An’t you supposed to devein them? Incase they have a Parasites in them. It’s about common sense using it.for my health and safety of the food preparation of them .
Sammy you inspired me to get a cast net of my own, went out near the salt works and got 2.8kg first time,, thank you sm
As usual great video Sammy. Can’t wait to try this way of cooking prawn, Looks absolutely smashing!
You guys seriously need a TV show, your so entertaining and you are definitely worthy of it
Cheers legend, really appreciated that! Just have to keep pushing out the content and see how we go!
we cook and eat prawns all the time but never been able to get that salt to water ratio correct. did everything you said right down to brown sugar. PERFECTION!! whole family agreed its a winner.
when we all get together and boys start watching fishing vids I ask for yours. always enjoy. cheers
Glad it worked for you mate 🍻🍻
Just a tip, to chill water fast add salt to it. To boil water fast don't add the salt at the start, wait for the rolling boil then add it, you'll find it will come to the boil faster.
nice little tip mate! Will be trying that next time!
My oath!
Mate watching you catch those prawns cooking them and eating them you was making my mouth water cheers great video
hahah they tasted even better than they looked as well! Probably explains why there is none left now!
Ace ...made my mouth water and I've not liked them since my grandad used to get them from Grimsby fresh and sweet .. probably full of sewage now...
Yeah nothing beats a feed of fresh prawns. Not the sewage ones though!
Great video mate couldn’t wait for another prawning video
Yeah heaps of people were keen for another so I thought I better get it done!
It’s good fun old prawning!
Bloody oath it is mate!
Great vid Sammy and some great tips on cooking the prawns, maaate gunna have to head to the Caboolture river if i get a chance as they looked so good. Bloody Shauno gotta tape a bucket and sponge to him next time so he helps washing the boat lol. Really informative video by the pancake kid and maybe Shauno can be the cup cake caster cheers Muzz
hahahah not a bad idea, just lather up shauno and roll him around the boat a bit so he can chip in! Cheers mate, Glad you got a bit outta it!
awesome video man haha pretty sick that u get to catch prawns. should do a catch n cook on those prawns haha tempura style
Basic_Fishing never done the tempura, more of a boiled or bbq’d man myself 👌🤤🤤
@@SammyHitzkeFishing lol well deep fried prawn sounds tasty too right? haha
Ledgends, I learnt a lot from you guys, thank you
Your honestly killing it man!
Cheers mate, Appreciate the support!
Great vid mate, few handy tips too cheers 👍🍺
cheers Brother! hope you having a good easter break!
Same to you bro, on way to peter Faust for 2 nights so hopefully cupl big barrys 👍
HAHAHAHAHAHA The "DIDNT YOU GROW UP IN NSW" is a hit!!!!!
ordered 500g of the tiger prawns cooked and 500g of the green uncooked this year for chissy best fish shop ive been to first time cooking green prawns will do a garlic butter with some chives or something good fun
I should have gone with you guys. They were hard work the day before.
I think we just got lucky!
@@SammyHitzkeFishing great video bud, always worth watching your vids, which is better for prawning, run out or run in tide?
Rod Ashford mate it really does vary from trip to trip. I’ve always liked the run out, but this year it seemed to be either the top or the bottom of the tide that fired
Welldone bud. I miss my tinny now. Best time of year for prawns and mudcrabs at the mo. I cook em the same as you but add a couple onions to the hot water.
TheBoguspokus oh nice, haven’t heard that onions trick before, is that for flavor or??
@@SammyHitzkeFishing Yeah I like the flavour. And reckon white onions are better. I cut em into quarters and throw em in. He he I cook my mudcrabs in beer and onions, VB is a good cooking beer, maybe not for drinking though.
Yeah Sammy great vid
Cheers legend! Glad you liked it
Hey Sammy good haul mate. Is there a reason you don’t cook them in the salt water they’re caught in? Is it better than cooking them in sea water?? Just wondering mate? Lovin’ ur work
Mick Livin nah no reason mate, I just never remember to take a bucket with a lid to store the water in!
Sammy & Shauno putting together the Easter spread!
Jordan Garnsworthy just making sure everyone gets fed mate 🦐🦐
Awesome job man😀
Cheers legend!!
I'm looking at buying a deeper pro which is a portable sounder have you use one
I haven't used one sorry mate
great vid mate, its a wonder the missus hasn't made you stay at home and mow that lawn hahaha
Ryan Porter hahaha mate I used the old “it’s raining” excuse to get out of it. It’s all done now though 😉
Don't let Shauno get you bogged somewhere 😂 lol
Eddy Kuz hahah why do you think we only go fishing together. He can’t be trusted in a 4x4 😂😂
He’ll put it on its lid before it’s bogged.
One day I might let him take the mighty pajero for a spin, see if he can handle the power
love the prawn videos sammy
cheers mate!
No Shauno cook?? He’s a master chef you know!
Dinky-Di hahahah self proclaimed master chef I reckon 😂
Dammmmmmn been hitting the Logan waiting for them sukkahs to come down.. would you happen to know how long prawns stay in a particular area before moving? Or are they constantly on the move??
Every.moon.the.bigger.ones.move.third.night.after.moon.is.best.they.run.in.a.funnel.like.a.horizontal.tornado.awesome.to.see.hope.this.helps.you😉😊
yeah they move around a lot mate. they can be there one day and gone the next. but on the smaller tides they do usually hang around the area for a couple of days.
Hey mate, why don't you take salt water from where you caught them to boil them up? Would mean you don't need to measure out and use paid for salt
yeah mate could definitely do that, I just always forget to take a big container to keep the water in!
I want to see you on 4x4 action advenrure. Keep up the good work.
I've already been on one mate! check out the moreton Island Episode from last year!
I reckon we fill that pot with oil and deep fry a couple whole chooks next time I’m over. Also.. might be time to get the mower out mate.
never done it before, don't they often end in a ball of fire? yeah look the grass is a little long, are you volunteering to cut it for me?
Gonna have to rename the channel soon to Sammy and Shaunos fishing adventures, lol.
Jesse Bradshaw haha it is getting a bit that way! What can I say, he loves being free during the week and I love fishing then!
Well done Boyz
Cheers mate!
Next time try cooking the prawns in some coconut juice. No water needed. 👍
i love prawn. specialy cook prawn sinigang. must try
sounds delicious!
Next weeks how to will be mowing the lawn! Hahahaha
hahahah yeah I gave up mowing the lawn to go prawning! Priorities!
You should try the Louisiana brand of crab and seafood boil mix. It will give your shrimp or crab a bit of a kick in flavor. Let me know if you have tried it if not I can send you some.
I'll give it a try next time!
Best way to cook prawns or crabs is in the water you catch them in. (if you don't trust the water don't eat your catch.)
Elliott Lamos yeah your probably right mate, I just never remember to take a bucket with a lid to bring water home with me 👍
Yesterday at Clontarf outside Clontarf boat ramp prawns were thick
There's too much water when you boil it, it will be a lot tastier when you boil it with a small amount of water. Or I usually cook it without adding water so it will boil in its own juice so there is no chance of the flavour getting washed out by the water. Nice video.
I disagree actually mate, I find as long as you adjust the salt content to suit the amount of water the flavour remains A+. In saying that, if your method is working for you keep at it!
What's the chances of getting some prawns in the next week or so somewhere around there Sammy?
Nice one, where u get that visor for your sounder is it a lowrance
ben learmonth hey Mate, not too sure actually, the old boy put it on to water dripping all over the screen while he’s casting. I’ll hit him up and find out what it is 👍
@@SammyHitzkeFishing yer sweet mate, looking to get one for my lowrance as it gets smashed by water and sun cheers and lovin the vids

Niceeeeee, lovin' shauno's enthusiasm hahaha! Gotta ask mate, your audio on your go pro is crispy what's your audio setup for it mate? Cheers.
geksii haha yeah mate, he’s great fun to have in the boat!
Ahhhh yes, I’m glad you noticed because a lot of time and money went into getting that audio right! I use a rode video mic on the back camera and a lapel mic on the front camera. Gives me good quality audio from both 👌👌
And now for the lighting!
Sammy Hitzke Fishing appreciate the reply! It sounds good on all my platforms mate, tv, headphones, computer speakers! Don’t change a thing :) good work!
Great vid mate, I try to get the prawns but just don’t have any luck 😔
cheers mate! appreciate the support. Oh that sucks, best bet would be to jump on the seq prawning an crabbing pages on facebook. everyone always shares where the prawns are running on there.
Thanks 👌
Sammy do you cook the other prawns in the same water as the others?

Hey mate, have you had any dramas with your motorguide? I got a 60" 24v xi5 in December last year and ive had gps issues, remote issues and now a cracked motor magnet.
I run the same electric on my Triton TR21 bass boat and it’s never missed a beat mate.. Sounds like you’re having a bad run sorry

Did you purge them before cooking?

Seasoning for what exactly? the prawns after they are cooked?
Sammy Hitzke Fishing like when we cook crawfish we season them. Are these cooked the same way or do you eat them plain ?
@@keith2j The salt is all that is needed. These prawns have a lot more natural flavor than crawfish. Though you can do a "Crawfish Boil" style cook with prawns (Shrimp). Oldbay season goes good.

Brown Milligan hey mate, it’s a custom built net by Merv at Merv’s cast nets 👍
