CHARBROILED OYSTERS FROM DRAGOS
From a great restaurant in New Orleans. Great dish. Can be broiled in the oven but are much better and more dramatic on the grill. Prep time does not include time to shuck the oysters :)

DRAGO'S CHARBROILED OYSTERS
Drago's restaurant in Metairie, Louisiana is famous for their grilled oysters. We worked hard to replicate their buttery sauce. We never have Thanksgiving without a sack of oysters and the grill going with this sauce on the side. This recipe makes enough sauce for one dozen oysters. If you're getting a sack make about 4x this amount. There's nothing like a cool, crisp day outside with friends and family playing Bocci Ball and sharing beautiful wines.

Don't attempt this without freshly shucked oysters and an outdoor grill. This was developed decades a go by Tommy Cvitanovich's for his restaurant "Dragos" in Metairie, Louisiana.

Steps:
- Heat a gas or charcoal grill.

- Place oysters on the half shell right over the hottest part. Spoon enough of the seasoned butter over the oysters so that some of it will overflow into the fire and flame up a bit.
- The oysters are ready when they puff up and get curly on the sides, about 5 -7 minutes. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan and Romano and the parsley on top and a squirt of lemon. Serve on the shells immediately with hot French bread.

Steps:
- Mix together all of the ingredients. Heat a charcoal or gas grill until very, very hot. Place the oysters on the hottest spot on the grill and let them cook in their own juices for a few minutes, just until they start to bubble and the edges curl. Top each with a generous portion of the sauce, enough to fill up the shell. When the sauce starts to bubble and sizzle sprinkle each oyster with about a Tbsp of Pecorino Romano. Let the Oysters go until the sauce on the edges of the shells gets nice and brown. Garnish with minced Parsley. Serve while still sizzling with Lemon wedges and fresh bread. Note: The more sauce that oozes onto the plate the better for mopping up with the bread. Also, don't be as foolish as me and just make half a dozen, 3 dozen is more like it.
CHARBROILED OYSTERS
They say at Drago's in NOLA, "mother nature made the oysters, we just perfected them." A friend mentioned these oysters a few weeks ago and we decided to give the recipe a shot. We were not disappointed. Absolutely delicious! The compound butter is also awesome on steaks, chicken or as a bread dipper.
