Sack of Oysters in BR?

Having a get together tomorrow. Wanted to try chargrilling my own oysters. I know the obvious answer is to go to Tony's Seafood. I'm just curious if any of you know of some hidden gems around BR.
Recipes for oysters are welcomed as well.

Depends on market price. I typically snag a sack when I'm down at the fishing camp. Buy it straight from the local oystermen. At most they'll ask for $30. Your seafood markets will be a different story though, as they go through middlemen and what-not and raise the price.

Second the vote for Renos. The sack I got over the holidays was one of the best I've had

I began cooking charbroil and guest have said I do it well. My problem was the shucking part, if I have 5 guest over I can't shuck the oysters fast enough and cook them. I began opening them before hand and cooking them in disposable small muffin pans. Make sure the flame is high enough where it comes up over the sides of what every they are cooking in.

Give a man a shucked oyster and he will eat for a day, teach a man to shuck and he will eat for a lifetime...

My go-to is Capital City Crawfish on Govt. Super-nice people and they always go out of their way for me.

I don't use breadcrumbs when chargrilling. I use the dragos recipe of salted butter, garlic, and a little oregano. Grill over the flames (key) and sprinkle with shredded Parm as they are cooking.

Whatever you do, dont put mexican blend cheese on them. The board will crucify you.
Reno's $65 sack is worth the drive to Sorrento. 95 lbs of oysters. Tony's sell 32 lb sacks for $48.
