Ingredients:

Serving

1 stick unsalted butter, slightly softened
1 1/2 tbsp chopped fresh tarragon leaves
1 heaping tbsp hot sauce, or more if you like your food really spicy (recommended: frank's)
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
18 oysters , shucked carefully over a bowl, catching the oyster liquor and putting back into the shell with the oyster
hot sauce (recommended
tarragon leaves, for garnish

Directions:

Cook's Note: Paula Dean's brother, Bubba, does a version of this at his restaurant. I loved the idea and changed it slightly to make it my own. Hot sauce is a staple on the tables in just about every restaurant in Savannah. I prefer preparing the oysters on a charcoal grill because of the smoky flavor it will give the oysters but you can use a gas grill or indoor grill pan too.

Butter:
Combine all the ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth, or add them to a bowl and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Oysters:
Heat a grill to high. Put the oysters in a single layer on the grates of the grill and cook until the liquor begins to simmer. Immediately top each oyster with a heaping teaspoon of the tarragon butter and a few extra dashes of hot sauce, if desired. Garnish with tarragon leaves and serve.
