excellent recipe. The only changes I made was I added a can of chicken broth and doubled up on the corn bread and the white bread. Made it juicy, but yet not runny

Very good. I didn't have red onions, so I used yellow. I also used chicken broth instead of the liquid from the oysters. I took this to a Christmas gathering and it got rave reviews, even from those who don't like oysters.
