How to BBQ Oysters

Grilling Tips

Preheat grill for high heat (500 degrees F).

Place oysters individually on the grill without overlapping them. Most only take about 3 minutes to grill completely. The cool thing about oysters is that they will "tell" when they are finished cooking on the grill by opening up (5 - 10 minutes).

They will be hot so be sure to wear heavy gloves (leather works good) while handling the shells to prevent yourself from getting burned!

To shuck the oysters, remove them from the grill and pry off the top shell. Slide a knife between the oyster and shell to disconnect.

To serve, leave the oyster in the shell, and top with your favorite dressing (see recipes below).
