Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Pre-cook oysters. Cut strips of bacon long enough to wrap around each oyster with slight overlap. (Oysters may be cut to desired size.) Place two or three bacon-wrapped oyster kabobs on each skewer and roast in hot oven until bacon is crisp. If served as hors d'oeuvres, allow 3 to 4 per person.


Fresh Pacific Oyster Cocktail

Pre-cook oysters. If desired, cut pre-cooked oysters in pieces, combine with cocktail sauce, allowing enough sauce to cover oysters. Fill cocktail glasses with mixture and garnish with slice of fresh lemon.

1 teaspoon Worcestershire
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash of pepper
Few drops Tabasco
2 teaspoons grated horseradish

Combine ingredients and mix well. Cover and chill thoroughly before using.
