Too bad these succulent oysters were literally drowned in butter. Personally, I prefer to eat oysters on a half-shell including the juice, raw or blanched with just a twist of lemon or vinegar dip. Other preparations with added condiments "spoil" the distinctive flavor of oyster. But outside the family, I only have a few friends who can eat oysters the way I do. On a dare, they'd eat baked oysters---but too squeamish to chew.
So this was another appetizer on a Saturday night-out with a couple of friends. We drowned our sorrows, laughed at our faux pas and ate oysters to awaken the senses.

I like my oysters raw as well. It was not easy getting the hang of eating raw oysters, but it only takes practice. Now I love it.
That preparation with probably less 1/2 the butter would be best for mussels - that would be my personal preference.
Looks like a good way to spend a night out with friends - not much of an oyster fan but wouldn't say no either :D
too bad, i can only dip my sorrows at eating mussels, no oysters for me...i don't know...
were they able to break down urs?

i prefer raw oyster over cooked ones! you're right! a squeeze of lemon is all it needs.. yumm!!
but i do love mussels prepared in such a way like your baked oyster here! :)
Too bad for me as well bc I do not eat Oyster.
that's really delicious, we love oysters but just expensive here! visiting from FTF, have a great weekend! :)
I love baked oysters, but we seldom order these because they're quite pricey! LOL! Thanks for the visit!

I love oysters! I don't think I've ever had the baked version though... I might have to try them for dinner tonight :D
I like oysters, don't love them though. I usually have them raw, with just a little lemon juice and sometimes some sriracha sauce. I tried Oysters Rockefeller once and they were alright, I would like to try them baked like this, but I don't know if I want them drowned in butter- love butter, but don't want to drink it.
I am one of those people who finds raw oysters hard to eat and too chewy to handle. Is the baked one less chewy?
