Fried is by far my favorite way, but I like smoked too. To me raw they just don't have any flavor, it doesn't bother me but not something would order or prepare for my tastes.

I love oysters pretty much any way they can be used. One unique way that I am very fond of is to heat a small cast iron skillet on the smoker/grill and using Mesquite chips or pellets. We did something similar when oysters weren't too expensive fresh, in the shell. With an oven mitt and a shucking knife, we would open and spread oysters on the half shell on a smoky grill, mesquite or hickory. Cover the grill for a few minutes, then pull the oysters off and eat from the shell with hot sauce. Was pretty good!

My rendition came from a little coastal town in Mexico that would take them in the shell and cook them over coals and serve them with the lime and hot sauce. Now for the best charcoal / BBQ cooked oysters on the 1/2 shell has to be from Parrains in Baton Rogue. Man I could eat those all day, or at least till they ran out of beer.

I'm surprised on one has mentioned one of my favorites - oyster soup. Use Emeril's recipe. Use milk with the oyster liquor, not water. Also, a little bit of cayenne pepper spices it up. http://emerils.com/120700/oyster-soup
