8.21.14 -ACME CHARGRILLED OYSTERS Recipe courtesy of Acme Oyster House

The only way I've ever been able to eat oysters was when we visited New Orleans and the Acme Oyster House. I knew if we were there, I had to eat oysters some how. So instead of choking down a raw one on a cracker with lemon juice and hot sauce, we ordered the chargrilled half shells. The butter, seasonings and cheese on top made these guys very edible. I tore up a good dozen and could have went back for more if the wait on them wasn't so long. And since sharing is caring, here is the Acme Oyster House's recipe.
Ingredients:
Method: Sauce
Butter garlic sauce should be prepared just prior to grilling the oysters. In a large sauté pan, add 2 sticks of butter and place over medium heat. Melt the butter and bring to a simmer. Add green onions, garlic, red pepper, thyme, oregano, lemon juice, Worchestershire sauce and Creole seasoning. Cook for 2 minutes and add white wine. Stir ingredients continuously and cook until green onions are soft. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 3 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl (before mixture is completely cool) combine the remaining butter with the sauce. Blend until butter is melted and folded into the sauce. Final product should have a creamy consistency.
Grilling Oysters
Pre-heat grill to 350°. Once at 350°, place freshly shucked oyster on the half shell on the center of the grill. Once the water around the oyster begins to bubble and the oyster begins to rise, ladle 1 tablespoon of the butter garlic sauce on top of each oyster. Top with a dusting of cheese, and allow the cheese to melt. Serve immediately with warm French bread for dipping.
Note: Make sure that the sauce is well blended. This insures the proper blend of butter and seasoning. Oysters should brown slightly around the edges. Remove oysters and place on a heat-resistant plate or platter. While still hot, add 1 teaspoon of butter sauce to the top of each oyster.

I usually just put them in some beer alone, but here is a recipe that adds in some of life's other awesome ingredients. Only thing missing would be some bacon and making those cheese brats. Damn, I'm hungry now. Laters
