Grilled Oysters with Irish Whiskey

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted Irish butter such as Kerry
  • 2 tbsp Irish whiskey
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 3 garlic cloves finely minced
  • Pinch of cayenne
  • 12 medium to large sized oysters

Instructions

  • Preheat grill to 400-475. Prepare oysters using an oyster knife and shucking severing the muscle that is attaching the oyster to the shell. Leave the oyster in the shell that is more cupped shaped.
  • In a saucepan, combine the butter, whiskey, brown sugar, garlic, and cayenne. Stir until well-mixed. Over a low flame heat until butter melts, whiskey cooks off, and sugar dissolves. Let cool and then place up to 1 tbsp (depending on oyster size) of the mixture on each oyster.
  • Place the oysters in a single layer on a grill. Grill uncovered for 6-7 minutes until the butter mixture is sizzling and the oyster is puffed up. Remove from the grill and serve immediately.
