Murder Point Oysters on the Half Shell with Freckle Belly IPA Hot Sauce
Ingredients
Fresh Murder Point oysters
20 jalapenos, stemmed and chopped
3 cloves of garlic
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon oil (vegetable or olive)
2 teaspoons salt
1 cup water
1 cup Freckle Belly IPA
1 cup distilled white vinegar
Instructions
Shuck each oyster, making sure to keep juices. Discard top shells. Gently run a knife between the shell and bottom of the oyster to detach the oyster from the shell. Leave detached oyster in bottom half of
the shell.
In a large stock pan, heat the oil and begin sautéing the peppers and onion. Once they have begun to cook down, add the garlic and continue cooking 3-4 minutes until the fragrance of the garlic comes out. Add the water and cook for about 5 minutes before adding the beer and vinegar, continuing to cook for another 5 minutes.
Allow the sauce to cool and drizzle sauce over chilled oysters. Serve immediately. Sauce can be made in advance and refrigerated.
