Oysters Wrapped in Bacon
12 strips of bacon
12 raw Mississippi oysters in their own juice
3 tablespoons brown sugar
Sprinkle brown sugar on the strips of bacon. Wrap one strip of bacon
around each oyster. Place in preheated oven at 350°F and bake for
35 minutes.

I'm gonna mod this recipe and omit the brown sugar. Also...gonna try to cook them up on the Weber grill and git some more smokey flavor goodness on them. Wink Smile
