Baked Oysters with Bleu Cheese, Bacon and Hot Sauce

02/02/2016 by Katie

I’ll admit, the first time I tried these oysters I was at our friend’s house and I thought, ‘gross, what an odd combination of ingredients!’ However, it only took one whiff of the deliciousness delicious and I was sold! They have been one of my favorite appetizers ever since.
These are perfect snack for game day or even a Friday night get together.  Or say… tonight. Ok!..don’t mind if I do.

Baked Oysters with Bleu Cheese, Bacon and Hot Sauce
 
Print
Ingredients
  • Two dozen oysters, either in the ½ shell or jarred.
  • (Today our market only had jarred, apparently fresh oysters in Idaho is not top priority)
  • 5 oz. Blue cheese, chunked
  • 4-5 pieces bacon, precooked
  • One green onion, finely chopped
  • Franks Hot sauce or Sriracha sauce
  • Fresh parsley to garnish (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°.  If you're using jarred oysters, wash them thoroughly and remove any gritty shell particles and place them in a muffin tin. If your using oysters are in the shell, you can forgo the muffin tin and just place them on a baking sheet.
  2. Bake the oysters in the oven at 400° for 20 minutes or until done.  
  3. Remove from the oven and place a small piece of precooked bacon on each oyster, then a hefty slab of bleu cheese. Top off with a squirt of hot sauce.
  4. Return back to the oven just until the bleu cheese has melted. Remove from the oven and as soon as they have cooled to the touch, transfer to a platter and serve.

Why is it when I say “oysters in a half shell”  I want to scream “TURTLE POWER!” ?

My one jar made 6 baked oysters and I will eat all 6 of them, because I don’t share well! True story. These oysters pair perfectly with a chilled glass of Chardonnay. Ok fine! Two glasses of chilled chardonnay.

Now it is time for y’all to get out of my kitchen so I can devour these like a gluttonous hog!

WELCOME TO THE FARM

Hi, I’m Katie. Our family lives on our fourth generation family farm here in beautiful Idaho. We milk jersey cows, raise pastured heritage pigs and poultry, scottish highlanders for beef and a few sheep for fiber.  Our journey is about healing the body through sustainable agriculture.  After being diagnosed with a autoimmune disease several years ago, I saw a need to change the way we think about diseases in today’s modern world.

Our farm prides ourselves on selling the best meat and dairy possibly.  We do not use ANY gmo’s, corn or soy in our animal feed.  Our critters graze on fresh green pasture and are fed a locally grown, locally milled grain ration.

We are not offering farm direct pickups or tours at this time.

Our dairy and egg products are available at Pilgrims Market in CDA Idaho.  We do not ship raw dairy.

Grassfed Beef, lamb and pastured pork are available by the half or whole.
