Garlic Butter Grilled Oysters on a Half Shell
Little Wicomico Oysters on a Half Shell make entertaining a breeze! Our pre-shucked oysters on a half shell arrive frozen and ready for fixings (no need to thaw!). This oyster recipe features garlic and parsley compound butter for a super simple but oh-so-flavorful and beautiful dish. We used our frozen oysters here, but you can use any of our fresh-caught oysters to make this tasty treat.
