Fried oyster batter recipe needed

Last time I tried to fry oysters, I had a problem with some of the batter falling off. Had no problems with the fish I was frying, just the oysters. Anyone have a tried and true recipe/method they can share. TIA...

I use cream meal.

I just use packaged fish fry blended with some corn flour. You really have to get your hands dirty breading oysters. They are slippery suckers and need to be tossed in the breading pretty liberally.
To take them to the HNL (hole nutha level), take about an 1.5"x1.5" piece of bacon and toothpick it around the oyster, then bread it and fry.
I use a horseradish sauce for dipping:
Mayo
Horseradish
lemon juice
worchestire
small amount of ketchup
take a cheese grater and grate a 1/2 of an onion and a couple of celery stalks
salt and pepp
Whip it all together and add horseradish to taste.

I think your problem may have been that you battered too far in advance. Best advice I can give is to put them in the oil pretty much right after you batter them. Same goes for fish/shrimp. It's especially critical with oysters bc of their watery nature. Only other thing I can think is your oil wasn't hot enough.

Your oil was not hot enough. Use season the fish fry or corn meal with salt and pepper. Oysters do not require battering beyond that.
