Coat the Oysters
Dip each oyster first in the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in the cornmeal mixture, ensuring they are well coated.

Fry the Oysters
In a deep skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated oysters in batches. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
