Grilled Oysters

Combine the backyard barbecue with a favorite treat from the sea, oysters. The oysters can be shucked and kept on ice for you at the seafood counter. To take this recipe into tailgate season, create buffalo grilled oysters: While they are grilling, top each with a dab of hot sauce and 1/2 teaspoon blue cheese. Garnish with a celery leaf before serving.
