CHAR-GRILLED BUFFALO OYSTERS RECIPE ON THE HALF SHELL



Char-Grilled Buffalo Oysters Recipe On The Half Shell image

Perfect for parties, these delicious char-grilled oysters are easy to make and have a great kick! We use our Loftin ceramic oyster shells for this recipe, because they are reusable and allow us to buy pre-shucked oysters from the store, instead of having to shuck a bunch of fresh oysters and keep the shell. We grilled these oysters on a gas grill, but this same recipe would be great on a charcoal grill as well.
