Who says that you need to be limited in your grilling choices? Next time, venture out and try this fantastic recipe.
Prep time: 15 minutes, Serves 4

1 stick butter
1 Tbsp each fresh basil, tarragon & thyme, chopped
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
salt to taste
36 fresh large oysters, in the shell, scrubbed

Prepare a medium-hot fire in the grill. Melt butter in saucepan. Stir in herbs, garlic, juice, zest, and salt to taste. Inspect oysters to make sure they are all tightly closed; discard any oysters whose shells do not close to the touch. Place directly on grate. Cover and cook until they open slightly; about 4 to 6 minutes. Using an oven mitt or work glove to protect your hands, remove the top shells. Discard any unopened oysters. Drizzle a little herb butter onto each oyster. Slurp and enjoy!
