New Orleans Style Chargrilled Oysters

There is nothing quite like a chargrilled oyster. A great gateway to this delicacy, the smoke and char adds to the delicate, briny flavor of the oyster. Add some cheese and you are on a trip to flavor town.

Instructions

  1. Rinse and shuck the oysters, reserving as much oyster liquor as possible. See notes for shucking instructions.
  2. Heat a grill to high heat
  3. Mix melted butter with garlic and pepper and pour a spoonful over each oyster. Then dash each oyster with a bit of hot sauce.
  4. Place the oysters over the direct heat and cook, topping with more sauce as needed (caution there will be flare ups from the dripping oil/butter).
  5. When cooked through, move to indirect heat and top each oyster with cheese and a pinch of oregano. Cook until the cheese in melted.
  6. Remove to a serving plate and slurp away, or be overtly proper and eat them with a fork.
