By: Eli Totz

This came from Playa Juncalito in Baja California Sur.

SERVES 24 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Prepare a small, safety-first fire.
  2. 2
    Toss oysters in the fire.
  3. 3
    Naturally, you will put them in a place where you can get them later so when they start to pop open you can pull them out of the fire and place some of the herbs/butter/salt/pepper/garlic mixture (which has already been combined and heating in a pot in the fire) inside the oyster.
  4. 4
    Place them back in the fire until the mixture begins to boil in the shell.
  5. 5
    Remove and eat as soon as possible.
  6. 6
    Whoa. So good.

This was great eh. I was afraid an open fire might melt down into the snow up here in Canada, so I cooked this in the oven at 250 Celcius (that's about 500 F for Y'all). Thanks Eli - tasted just as good as you said it would.
