Grilled (or Broiled) Oysters with a Sriracha Lime Butter Recipe on Food52 (2024)

Super tasty!! Great balance of acidity and just a tinge of heat. The broiler worked great!

Ya'll do know that there is a product called Key Lime Pepper from The Spice Hunter and others that mixes in with the butter very nicely. If you want it a little more spicy ad the lime juice at the table but I don't think you're going to need to.

Toss each oyster? I'm guessing "top" is what the author meant.

These are soooooooo good. Am eating them now and wanna make them for everyone I know!

Made this last night with my 8 yr old. Delicious! My son who swore he hated oysters ate four and liked it. Simple..easy to make and doesn't overwhelm the oysters. I will make again.

Just made this recipe for about the 10th time. Delicious as always. Then, we took whole squid bodies, stuffed the butter inside, lightly oiled the outside and added a dash of pepper. Then we threw them on the grill for a hot minute. Whoa! This butter could be our new secret seafood weapon!

This is one of those recipes I have been waiting so long to try. As I am on vacation in Wellfleet it seemed like the perfect time! Absolutely delicious! Wonderful recipe. We are already talking about how many oysters we need to buy for tomorrow. This is so easy and so delicious. I know the butter would be so delicious on grilled fish or pasta as well. A+!

Check out bbqoystergrill.com for a great oyster grilling rack-makes it so easy to cook them on the grill. Your sauce was delicious.

This was simple and delicious, just the way I like it. I saw gordon ramsay crumple some tinfoil on a baking sheet and then sink the half shelled oysters into the tinfoil to keep the juices from spilling out, worked a treat.

This looks amazing and I'm definitely starting off the valetine's day menu with it. Does anyone have a go to lobster risotto recipe?

Fantastic! Served this fireside with roasted oysters. Big hit!

When I think of cooked oysters I think of oysters kilpatrick, which is classic but tried and tested. This recipe sounds really refreshing, and the spicy herbed butter with lime looks great for a whole lot of other meats and seafood!

Oh my these look so good! Als so good is Carothers' Olive Oil! Spanish, extra virgin olive oil at it's best. http://www.carothesoliveoil.com.

I just returned from my first trip to San Francisco, where we drove up the coast to Hog Island Oysters. The picture here looks just like the BBQ oysters we tried (and fell in love with) there. They make theirs with two kinds of chili, bourbon and butter. If I ever locate a grill this summer, I might try my hand at both!

I made these for a dinner party and people who profess not to like oysters, loved these. I would suggest using rock salt on the pan as a bed to stabilize the oysters before cooking. You don't want to risk losing any of the delicious, buttery juice because the oysters have tipped over.

Today was my first time shucking an oyster, and it's a PITA. But it was well worth it. These were amazing! I crumpled up some aluminum foil and put it under each oyster on the cookie sheet, so they wouldn't tip over. Some were more done than others (some were much bigger), but they were all delicious.

Pardon my ignorance but I have never grilled an oysters. I was thinking you would grill them closed and then open them up. When I read the instructions then I was thinking you open it and cook it in the half shell? But then it says "toss" each oyster in a dollop of butter. When it says be careful the shells are hot I get lost. You open the shell, take out the oyster, toss it, then put it back in a half shell and grill?
Help.

Made 2 dozen Blue Points this was on Christmas eve. I added Lime zest in the butter to boost the citrus and squeezed fresh lime juice, too. Will certainly make again. My 8 year old ate 7!

Oh Melly I am so doing this for the big game this weekend! YUM!
