20 oz Shucked medium oysters 2/3 c All-purpose flour 2/3 c Saltine cracker crumbs 1 ts Black pepper 2 Eggs 2 tb Dijon mustard Vegetable oil 1 Pan alder smoking chips Tarter sauce or bottled Honey mustard dressing
Rinse oysters and drop into boiling water. Bring to a boil again and boil
for 3 minutes. Rinse again in cold water and smoke for 45 minutes.
While oysters are smoking whisk egg with mustard in a small bowl. Combine
cracker crumbs, pepper and flour in a pie plate.
When the oysters have finished smoking roll them in the flour/cracker
mixture and set on a plate. Next dip the oysters in the egg/mustard
mixture and roll in the flour/cracker mixture again and return to the
plate.
Pour a film of oil into a 12 inch skillet and heat over medium-high heat
until a cube of bread is golden in 20 seconds. Add oysters to pan (its OK
to crowd oysters, but dont overlap) and cook until golden on bottom, about
2 minutes. Turn and brown other side, about 2 minutes. Serve with lemon
wedges and bottled honey mustard dressing or tarter sauce.
Note: Very good.
