Description

This recipe from an old Better Homes and Garden cookbook is a favorite my mom would make for my dad at holidays. My mom adapted it a little by decreasing the amount of cracker crumbs and increasing the amount of butter. I make it for my dad now, and I have found that I like it too.

  2. Combine crumbs and butter.

  6. Using another third of crumbs, spread a second layer; cover with remaining oysters.
  7. Sprinkle again with pepper.
  8. Combine cream, oyster liquid, Worcestershire, and salt.
