Anyone ever had charbroiled oysters? It's the specialty at


Jun 14, 2015, 1:15 PM

Drago's restaurant at the Hilton Riverside where I'll be staying in New Orleans week after next. Sounds like an interesting appetizer or meal even if accompanied by some good French bread. Love 'em raw and fried, assume I'll like 'em charbroiled also. We'll see.

But they shucked the oysters/juice and set aside, then put the shells in a fire and got them very hot, then dropped the oysters/juice back into the shells and they got charred quickly on one side, still kinda raw on top.
Were awesome!

Rockefeller did and they are delicious.

Go Tigers eat well.

Never had a cooked, steamed, fried, etc. oyster that comes


Jun 14, 2015, 8:56 PM

close to tasting as good as they do raw. Sorry, why screw up perfection. That Rocket fellow also added cheese and bacon. Heck, you can eat #### with enough cheese and bacon.

But would you eat #### with horseradish and cocktail sauce?

I think not so you are correct.

Well, as some sage once remarked, different strokes for different folks. Have you ever attended a lowcountry oyster roast? There are bazillions of folks who are not so picky and want variety. Raw Oysters are excellent, a little hot sauce and a saltine are good accompanists.

Go Tigers, don't be one way, pass run and intercept. They all work.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I've attended Lowcountry oyster roasts


Jun 16, 2015, 9:41 AM

Midlands oyster roasts, piedmont oyster roasts, mountain oyster roasts, Boston oyster roasts, and even a Sydney oyster roast.

And lemme tell ya....

Australian oysters are the best of the lot. Period. They are smaller than our oysters, and saltier. You really don't need any sauce or anything on them.

I've had oysters every way you can cook them and raw. I cannot post that I have ever had a bad one.

Go Tigers, you are greeeeeeeeeeeaaaaat (according to Tony).

There's no bad way to fix an oyster.

Palmetto Smokehouse in Clemson were awesome. If you remember after the first VomitFest. ;)

I have been there twice and they are awesome but have not been in 5 years or so. Not in the quarter but worth the drive as they were incredible. A definite must.

EAT AT LEAST 3 DOZEN AT DRAGO'S


Jun 14, 2015, 8:55 PM

You will never have better oysters. Grilled, then soaked in garlic butter and parmigiano cheese. UNBELIEVABLY good.

They also have a place on the lake north of town too.

Yes...one of my favorite places to go in NO....


Jun 14, 2015, 10:50 PM

I've not been to the satellite location in the Hilton, but I understand it's the same as the main place in Metairie

It's a meal...they serve them on hi-rimmed "trays". All you need with them is bread and beer. Get some of the original ones and some of the ones with spinach, bacon, and holandaise sauce.

The shrimp and corn bisque is good there too. Their gumbo is good, but there is better in NO.
