Oysters

Butter Mixture

Method

Preparation

1

Clean the Oysters

Rinse the fresh oysters under cold water to remove any dirt and debris. Use a brush to scrub the shells if necessary.

2

Prepare the Butter Mixture

In a medium bowl, combine the unsalted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon juice, hot sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

Grilling

3

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C).

4

Grill the Oysters

Place the cleaned oysters on the grill, cup side down. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, or until the oysters begin to open slightly.

5

Add the Butter Mixture

Carefully spoon the prepared butter mixture onto each oyster while they are on the grill. Close the grill lid and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until the butter is melted and the oysters are cooked through.

Serving

6

Serve the Grilled Oysters

Using tongs, carefully remove the oysters from the grill. Serve immediately, garnished with extra chopped parsley and lemon wedges if desired.
