Daddy Mack's Oysters

By: Chief Dad 
"This is concoction was developed by my buddy and I during a block party. We had people standing in line. Be sure to use leather gloves when shucking hot oysters. Sounds like a pain, but well worth the work."

Original Recipe Yield 6 appetizer servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 3 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons minced shallot
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
  • 12 fresh oysters in shells
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, stir together the butter, cilantro, garlic, shallot, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, and sriracha sauce. Spoon onto waxed paper and roll into a log. Place into the freezer until set.
  2. Preheat a grill for high heat.
  3. Place whole oysters on the hot grill for 3 to 5 minutes, or until almost done. Remove the top shell from the oysters, without spilling any liqueur, and return them to the grill. Slice the butter log into 1/4 inch slices, and place a slice on top of each oyster. Grill until the butter melts, then serve on a bed of rock salt for presentation.
