Method

In a small bowl, whisk together shallot, hot sauce, butter, parsley and pepper.

Dipping sauce will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Prepare a grill for medium heat cooking.

Arrange oysters, shucked-side up, on the grill grates, being careful not to spill oyster juice.

Close the grill lid and grill until oysters are cooked through and opaque, about 5 to 10 minutes depending on size.

Using tongs, carefully transfer oysters to a platter and let sit until shells are cool enough to pick up.

Top oysters with sauce or dip them in sauce and eat, popping straight into your mouth or using a small fork.
