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 Charbroiled Oysters image

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.

Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature

Place the oysters 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.

Continue grilling each oyster until the sauce is nice and bubbly and turning a caramel color.
Serve and eat immediately.

CHARBROILED OYSTERS

Provided by Food Network

Categories appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 pounds butter, softened
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh garlic
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
6 dozen oysters on the half shell
1 cup grated mixed Parmesan and Romano
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Hot French bread, for serving

Steps:

Mix the butter with the garlic, pepper and oregano.
Heat a gas or charcoal grill and put oysters on the half shell right over the hottest part. Spoon the seasoned butter over the oysters enough 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 minutes. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan and Romano and the parsley on top. Serve on the shells immediately with hot French bread.
