Fire up the grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. This will give your oysters a nice smoky flavor.

Prepare the spicy marinade

In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of hot sauce, 1 tablespoon of melted butter, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and a pinch of salt. This will be the flavor bomb that takes your oysters to the next level.

Shuck the oysters

Using an oyster shucking knife, carefully pry open the oysters, being mindful of your fingers. Place the shucked oysters on a tray lined with ice to keep them fresh.

Brush on the marinade

Using a pastry brush, generously brush the spicy marinade onto each oyster. Make sure to cover them completely for maximum flavor.

Serve and enjoy

Carefully remove the grilled oysters from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter. Sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro and squeeze some fresh lemon juice over them for an extra zing. Grab a fork, dig in, and savor the spicy goodness!
