Tips:

  • Select plump and fresh oysters. Look for oysters with tightly closed shells and no cracks or chips. Avoid oysters that have been opened or have a foul odor.
  • Shuck the oysters carefully. Use an oyster knife to pry open the shells, taking care not to damage the meat. If you are new to shucking oysters, ask a fishmonger or experienced cook for help.
  • Wrap the oysters in bacon securely. Use a thin strip of bacon for each oyster, and wrap it around the oyster tightly. Secure the bacon with a toothpick.
  • Cook the oysters until the bacon is crispy and the oysters are cooked through. Fry the oysters in a pan with hot oil over medium heat for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the bacon is crispy and the oysters are cooked through. You can also bake the oysters in a preheated oven at 400°F for 10-12 minutes.
  • Serve the oysters hot with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular dipping sauces for fried oysters include tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, and remoulade.
