Baked Crusted Oysters

Here in the islands, the way we grew up eating oysters was to simply grill them over charcoal and serve it with soy sauce, tabasco and lemon juice. It is an item that is served at all cookouts. I came up with this recipe for baked crusted oysters on a rainy day....having cancelled our picnic, and now having to eat indoors.
