1
Prepare the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet, let it cool, and crumble it into small pieces.
2
Prepare the Jalapeno
Finely chop the jalapeno pepper, removing seeds if you prefer less heat.
3
Make the Butter Mixture
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in lemon juice, chopped jalapeno, crumbled bacon, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and remove from heat.
4
Prepare the Oysters
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the oysters on a grill-safe pan or directly on the grill grates. Spoon the butter mixture generously over each oyster.
5
Grill the Oysters
Grill the oysters for about 5-7 minutes, or until the edges start to curl and they are heated through.
6
Serve
Remove the oysters from the grill and serve immediately with lemon wedges.
