Directions

Get large oysters, in the shell — saddlerocks are very nice for this purpose. Wash the shells with a brush in cold water; open, leaving them on the half shell and place in a pan. Grind the bread crumbs and run through a sieve to make quite fine; season with salt and pepper. Cover each oyster well with the crumbs and add a square of bacon on top. Dot with bits of butter and run into a hot oven. Bake to a delicious brown and serve with plenty of melted butter with a few drops of lemon juice for each oyster.
