Grilled Oysters with Chipotle Bourbon Butter

INGREDIENTS

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened to room temp
• 2 tablespoons bourbon
• 2 tablespoon honey
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 chipotle chili in adobo sauce, minced
• 12 oysters, shucked

INSTRUCTIONS

1. In a small food processor or mixing bowl, combine the butter, bourbon, honey, garlic, and chipotle. Stir or pulse until well-mixed.
2. Heat the BBQ. Remove the butter from the fridge, and place a scant tablespoon on each shucked oyster.
3. Place the oysters on the grill or transfer to a baking sheet and place under the broiler.
4.  Once the oysters and butter have bubbled and caramelized, remove them from the grill or broiler, about 3 minutes.
5. Cool slightly before enjoying (the shells will be very hot). Serve warm.
