CHAR-GRILLED BUFFALO OYSTERS RECIPE ON THE HALF SHELL
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.

BBQ OYSTERS AND OLIVES
Nice and different way to prepare freshly shucked oysters on the BBQ. The quantities below are what I used but just do it to taste depending on the size of the oysters and olives. It might be stating the obvious but you will need to be an oyster / olive lover to enjoy this.

BARBECUED OYSTERS
Perhaps nothing so perfectly captures the sweet, salty essence of the sea as an oyster on the half shell. The Hog Island Oyster Company in Marshall, California, harvests some of the most delicious oysters in the United States. Michael Watchorn, shares one of his favorite recipes.

GRILLED EAST COAST OYSTERS WITH CORN JALAPEñO SALSITA
I've been a big fan of the plump and succulent wonders of oysters for a long time-since even before I started frequenting one of my favorite raw bars: the one in the Blue Ribbon, in Tribeca. Something about the charm of this particular example of our sea's bounty has always intrigued me. These days I prefer local (like Cape Cod) over other types of oysters, but, still, I'm open! The accompanying salsita-which is tasty all by itself or even spread on a small salad of your favorite greens-offers a wonderful flavor and texture balance. I suggest making the accompanying sauce ahead of time so you can visit with your guests. Then just grill the oysters, plate them, and serve.

Steps:
- Light a fire in a charcoal or gas grill. Place the corn-without anything on it-on the grill grate. Grill the ears of corn, rotating the corn as needed to keep it from getting charred too much on one side, for about 7 minutes. (Don't overcook the corn, or it will become mushy!) Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Remove the kernels from the cobs and set aside.
- Meanwhile, squirt just a bit of canola oil on the tomato and onion slices. Sprinkle pepper on top. Place the onion slices on the grill. Add the tomatoes cut-side down on the hot grate and grill until both are nicely browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn the onion slices and tomatoes with tongs and continue grilling until the bottoms of the tomatoes (the rounded parts) are nicely browned and the onion becomes softer and fragrant, about 3 more minutes.
- Dice the onion and tomatoes and place in a bowl. Add the corn kernels and the jalapeño. Pour in the olive oil and vinegar and stir to combine. Season with salt. This can be done up to one day ahead of time; just bring the salsita to room temperature prior to serving.
- Place the oysters directly on the grates of the grill, close the cover, and cook until all of the oysters have opened, 4 to 5 minutes. Discard any oysters that have not opened on their own. Further open the ones that have started to open and top each one with 1 teaspoon of the corn and jalapeño salsita. Serve hot.
GRILLED OYSTERS WITH LEMONY GARLIC-HERB BUTTER
Garlic, lemon, herbs and butter form a classic European pairing that is perfectly at home spooned into a hot grilled oyster, but if that's not your style, try out these recipes for Buttery Soy-Sake Glaze or Harissa-Parmesan Butter - or, better yet, make all three. Any leftover flavored butter and sauces are excellent melted over grilled vegetables, such as asparagus or zucchini, or over grilled chicken, fish or even steak, and they can be stored in the refrigerator for several weeks or in the freezer for several months. When shopping for oysters, look for specimens with deeply cupped bottom shells in order to help retain their natural liquor and provide ample space for the flavored butter.

Steps:
- Ignite a full chimney of coals and spread out under one side of the grill once they are fully covered in gray ash, or heat half the burners of a gas grill to high. Cover and let the grill heat for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cut off a sheet of aluminum foil twice the length of a 13-by-18-inch rimmed baking sheet. Crumple it up so that it fits into the baking sheet. The crumpled foil should be able to support the cupped side of the oysters without allowing them to tip over.
- Prepare the garlic-herb butter: In a food processor, combine the butter, parsley, basil, garlic, lemon zest and juice, a large pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Process until the herbs are finely chopped and there are no large chunks of butter remaining, about 30 seconds total, stopping to scrape down the sides of the processor with a rubber spatula a few times as needed. Transfer the mixture to a small, oven-safe saucepan.
- Using tongs, arrange the oysters over the hot side of the grill, placing them with the cupped sides down, doing your best to set them in the grates so that oyster juices don't pour out of the cups as they open. Cover and cook, checking on them every minute or so, and transferring any oysters that have begun to gape open to the foil-lined baking sheet. After a total of 4 minutes, transfer any remaining oysters to the foil whether they have opened or not. Place the saucepan on the cooler side of the grill.
- As soon as the oysters are cool enough to handle, pry off the top shells with a butter knife or oyster knife, severing through the muscle that holds the oyster to the shell and retaining as much juice in the shell as possible. For oysters that aren't already gaping open, the easiest way to pry off the lids is by inserting the tip of the knife into the joint and firmly twisting it until the joint releases.
- Spoon a generous teaspoon of the garlic-herb butter (which should be fully melted by now) into each oyster, then return the oysters directly onto the grates on the hot side of the grill. Cook, uncovered, until the sauce mixture is bubbling hot, about 1 minute. Return the oysters to the foil-lined baking sheet and serve immediately.

HOW TO COOK OYSTERS ON THE GRILL WITH GARLIC BUTTER

- Wash and scrub the oysters in cold running water, removing any sand, mud or loose shell. Place the clean oysters in a big bowl and keep refrigerated until ready to use ( the same day)
- Melt the butter in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl. Time varies, but mine takes about 15 seconds. Add the garlic, chili paste, cheese and pepper. Salt is not needed because the oysters are already salty.
- Heat a grill to high heat. I use propane but charcoal grilling works well too. Remove oysters from the bowl and place on the grill using tongs. Discard any oysters that are already open. You want them to be tightly closed. Place them on the grill with the bowl shaped side of the shell down. Grill the oysters until they pop open a little bit. Remove from the heat with the tongs, and use an oyster shucker to pry and twist the oyster apart. Careful, it's HOT! Shucking oysters can be dangerous so never use a sharp knife. Use heat proof gloves or potholders to handle the oysters. . Once the oyster is open, scrape the flesh away from the muscle that attaches it to the shell. Scrape off the muscle and discard if it is on the bowl shaped side of the shell. Place the oyster flesh in the bowl shaped shell and set it aside. Discard the other side of the shell.
- When all the oysters are open and ready to go, place them, in their shells, back on the grill with the tongs. Pour the butter mixture over the oysters with a spoon, dividing it equally. Continue cooking the oysters until their "liquor" has burned off, leaving just the butter and cheese. They should be lightly golden brown. Don't overcook them or they will be rubbery. Be careful when cooking the oysters with the butter. There is a lot of spitting and sputtering.
