You want to watch these pretty closely. The second that the shells start to open, remove the oysters from the grill and serve. These are a great appetizer for parties around the grill.
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 6 minutes
Total Time: 16 minutes
Ingredients:
- 12 oysters per person
- salt and pepper
- melted butter
- lemon wedges
- hot pepper sauce (Tabasco)
- Worcestershire sauce
Preparation:
Clean oysters thoroughly to remove any mud from the shells. Use either a grill topper (i.e. wok) or heavy foil with several holes punched through it on the grill grate. Place oysters on the grill and close lid. Grill until shells open (about 6 minutes). Remove from grill and cut muscles from the shell. Serve hot with the above sauces and seasonings. It's best to grill them in batches so everyone gets good hot oysters.
