Kelchner's Cocktail Sauce at Frank's Seafood

If you check out Frank's Seafood in Jessup, pick up a bottle of Kelchner's Cocktail Sauce and some shrimp to dip.

My sister-in-law reintroduced me to shrimp cocktail because she often puts out a plate when we arrive to visit. It's so simple. It's so delicious -- if you get good cocktail sauce. Frank's sells bottle of Kelchner's, which has a fiery horseradish flavor a cut above most cocktail sauce.

This is a nice pick-up -- either to put on shrimp that you buy at Frank's or to store for a quick meal. Peel and steam some shrimp. Pour some Kelchner's in a bowl. You have a perfectly nice dinner or a classy way to welcome guests.

(Update: Lotsabogeys comments below that Kelchner's is available at Giant.  And Alison C says it is available at Weis.  So look at any seafood counter that you visit.)

If you go to Frank's, there are several other great food stops along the U.S. 1 corridor. Check out everything from organic groceries and empanadas to a kitchen supply store and the county's best Middle Eastern grocery.

NEAR: This is in the wholesale seafood market in Jessup. You take Rte 175 east from I-95. You turn right on Oceano Avenue after passing the prison. You turn left into the market. You need to show a driver's license, but Frank's is open to the public.

  1. It is available at Giant along with their tartar sauce. It is the only thing that I will buy in the Giant seafood section.
