re: Char grilled oysters - sauce basting recipe

They are super easy. One tip is to very carefully choose your shells. You want shells that are deep but have a flat bottom so they rest level on the grill, does this make sense? If they are shallow you can't fit any sauce and if they don't rest flat it all drains out.

Also, if you have real small oysters or real shallow shells I'll put two meats in one big shell.

Sauces:
Just plain cheap grated parm cheese is great by itself
Any wing sauce works great (butter and hot sauce)
White wine, Butter, garlic (add cheese if you wish)
Italian dressing (add cheese if you wish)
Greek- feta, kalamata olives, butter/ olive oil, garlic

ETA: also, grill (toast) some bread. "texas toast" style white bread or thick cut french bread.
