1
Prepare the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet, drain on paper towels, and crumble into small pieces.
2
Make the Butter Mixture
In the same skillet, melt the stick of unsalted butter over low heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in lemon juice, chopped parsley, and hot sauce. Mix well and set aside.
3
Prepare the Oysters
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Shuck the oysters and place them on a baking sheet, half shell up. Make sure they are stable.

4
Assemble Ingredients on Oysters
On each oyster, place a spoonful of crawfish tails, followed by a sprinkle of crumbled bacon, and then top with grated Parmesan cheese.
5
Add Butter Mixture
Drizzle the prepared hot sauce butter mixture generously over each oyster.

6
Bake the Oysters
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
7
Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with extra parsley if desired.
