So Mr. izzy went to his family Christmas celebration yesterday and came home with a gift for me from my BIL. 32 ounces of freshly shucked oysters from the eastern shore of Maryland. The jar is packed full with oysters and just a little of their liquor. I have always had my oysters on the 1/2 shell with a lovely sherry mignonette. I keep opening the fridge and gazing at them looking for inspiration.

What would my Serious Eats friends do with these beauties? Recipes would be greatly appreciated!
