Sexy Slurring Saucy Oysters.  

I’m just now recovering from a fabulous New Years Eve.  It’s generally my rule to opt out of amateur night but with the move and all it seemed only fitting to add to the carnage.  That said, wonderful guests, plenty to drink and lots of little things to eat made for a banger night  One dish in particular we’ll try agian.  The grilled oysters.  Generally I prefer them straight up but during a trip to New Orleans ;) I discovered these garlicky treats.  

3 dozen oysters in the half shell
2 sticks of soft butter
a bulb of garlic 
juice from a lemon
cayenne to taste
white pepper to taste
1/2 cup of finely grated percino romano

Mix it all together then dollop spoonfuls on the oysters and cover with chopped parsley.  Grill on a hot grill until bubbling.  Cork champagne.
