Your Oysters

24 Louisiana oysters in their shells and scrubbed clean (You can use those native to you are but - ya'll -sorry - they just won't be the same) Smilin'

1 entire package of pre=cooked bacon, cooked and crumbeld (Frank uses 1-cup rendered out bacon btis)

black pepper

1 loaf of French Bread (If unavailable any good "sopping bread" will do

Directions

Make the basting sauce by mixing all the ingredients thoroughly - then set aside to rest

You can use either an oven top grill, an electric indoor grill, an outdoor grill or your oven broiled to prepare y our oysters

I use my Lodge oven top cast iron grill.

If you use the oven, preheat tao 423 degrees and place the oysters in ROCK SALT in a deep pan to cook

Either way place flat side down for baking and plan on about 10 minute per batch.

(I bake 12 at a time on my stove top grill)

Thye're ready when they gurgle and bubble and pop open.

If they don't open after ten minutes, throw them away and get another one.
