Ingredients
24-48
pcs
fresh oysters
in shell
2-4
lemons
quartered
Instructions
Start a charcoal or wood fire, or preheat a gas grill; the fire should be moderately high.
Place the oyster's round side down on the grill, two to four inches from the heat source.
Grill until they begin to open, 5 minutes or so(it will depend on their size).
As they open, remove them from the grill and move unopen ones to the hotter part of the grill.
Shucking will be easy (just remember that the shells are hot); try to
keep as much liquid as possible in the shell.
If you like oysters fully cooked, return them to the grill and
cook them until their edges curl (they may have done so already).
Serve with lemon wedges.
