These were really special Stella! I'd never thought about marinating oysters in wine before but it worked really well and gave them a distinctive but subtle taste. The only change I made was using around double the amount of garlic. By half-wrapping the oysters in bacon and leaving bacon-side down most of the time it also protected them from some of the direct heat so they weren't over-cooked. -
Perfect! I added a little sprinkle of lemon juice after they were done. Company loved them! Thank you for a lovely re

Had only large oysters but I also had thick cut bacon so it worked out well. Drained the juice off the pan when I turned them. Sprinkled with a little lemon when done. Might try a tiny bit of hot sauce next time. But when something is this good, just don't have to play with it!

There I am sitting in front of the computer, one of my favorite spots in the house. When I'm not at the computer, I enjoy cooking and entertaining.
See my icon? It is an old Royal typewriter. My father had one just like it that he gave me when I was in college. It had one key that stuck, but I typed all my term papers on that old thing. Whenever I see that icon I remember those happy days.
