Enjoy the oyster log at Stinky’s Fish Camp on 30A in Dune Allen, or at their sister restaurant, Trenasse in New Orleans. Their motto is oysters are served all day all ways, and as an expert on bivalve consumption, I can attest to the fact that they have an amazing array for all to enjoy. Try your hand by heating up the grill at home for this BBQ Oyster recipe.

  • 1 dozen oysters on the half shell

  • 1 cup grated Romano cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh flat leaf parsley chopped

  1. In a bowl combine cheeses and parsley. Set aside.
  2. Place a half dozen oysters on the half shell over a med-hot fire on the grill. Top each oyster with 1 tablespoon of the butter/garlic sauce and cook for about 2 minutes, or until the oyster edges begin to curl.
  3. NOTE: Be careful. because the grill will most likely flame up.
