So you're saying Jolie Pearl uses mexicheese on their oysters? Interesting. I feel like that would have been mentioned before by the other posters that have visited.

They offer several combinations...bleu cheese is one I recall, a Brie preparation is another.

Looks decent enough. Never mind the pretentious assholes in here.

I'm gonna do a bunch this weekend. I'll use parm instead of cheddar, but I'd eat it.

Got a sack ordered for the game Sunday. What I don't eat raw will get the Special Otis' Method treatment.

Page 60 of the Recipe Book, above.

Here's a rendition I wrote down for a good friend in Kansas City to use over the holidays. It's an estimation of what I've been doing of late and is modeled after some of my favorite restaurant variations. Grab a sack of good oysters and have some fun. Merry Christmas!


Grilled Oysters
4 sticks real, unsalted butter
2T of your favorite Cajun seasoning (I use Tony Chachere’s)
1.5 to 2T black pepper
½ tsp red pepper
4 to 6 cloves of garlic, crushed
2T minced flat leaf parsley
½ to ¾ cup of lemon juice
Procedure
1 Mix the butter mixture, adjust seasoning to taste, and refrigerate. For an hour or more. Add @1/2 to 1 T to each oyster. Add the same amount of cheese. Grill over very hot coals until the oyster begins to curl and sizzle a bit on the edges…may take a few minutes. You’ll want the flames, if possible, to flare up a bit. To get this, you may wish to have more butter, melted, to spoon over the cooking oysters.
2 Use tongs and be careful. The rule of thumb, which I’m sure you know is you can always cook them more…but you can’t “uncook” them
3 This should do 4 dozen or so oysters. Serve with good bread for dipping the excess
Recipe Tips
Cheese-use Parm O and Romano at a 50/50 mix. I use the best I can find. I grate it in the food processor.
A tip on the butter sauce…go heavy on the lemon and black pepper flavors…slightly over season. You’ll like them.

did he just open a pack of that "Mexican blend" shredded cheese and dump a handful on each one?


Leave it up to the Board to tell people what they should and shouldn't like or eat.

If he liked them, then

Just about everyone other than Zach's wife would like those.

That mexican mix has almost no flavor which can be said for most or all of the Kraft products. It isn't like the cheddar would over power the oysters. Heck, Kraft's hard cheddar cheese has a very mild flavor.

The cheese would add a very mild flavor with a nice melted cheese texture.

IWEI. In all fairness to the snobs, I like pretty much any oyster dish as long as it isn't the famous pickle pie with oysters or Cad's Aged Ribeye topped with oysters.
