a DIY guide to oyster roasting
garden to table
the other day our friends gathered to celebrate the birthday of our friend catie. we roasted up a bushel of apalachicolan oysters.
read on to find out how to roast em’ at home!
build a fire
get some oysters
wash your oysters one by one
try to get all of the sand and grit out
make some cocktail sauce by mixing ketchup and horse radish together
get some burlap, we went to our local coffee roaster and got some coffee bags they work great
take a flat piece of metal and place it over the fire. we used a scrap of roofing
place the oysters on the metal, cover with burlap and wet the burlap with a hose
check to see if the oysters have opened slightly
done!
crack them open, we used a screw driver
serve along side the cocktail sauce, horse radish and some saltines
they pair nicely with a cold one
yum!
