Description

Ingredients

• 1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened to room temp
• 2 tablespoons bourbon
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 chipotle chili in adobo sauce, minced
• 12 oysters, shucked

Directions

• In a small food processor or mixing bowl, combine the butter, bourbon, honey, garlic, and chipotle. Stir or pulse until well-mixed. You can make the butter mixture up to 1 week in advance and refrigerate until ready to serve. If youre going to be cooking in the hot sun, make sure to chill the butter until solid before starting, about 1 hour.
• When ready to BBQ, fire up your grill or broiler. Remove the butter from the fridge, and place a scant tablespoon on each shucked oyster. Place the oysters on the grill or transfer to a baking sheet and place under the broiler. Once the oysters and butter have bubbled and caramelized, remove them from the grill or broiler, about 3 minutes. Let cool slightly before enjoying (the shells will be very hot). Eat immediately!
