My Favorite Oyster Shooter

~I worked on the Seattle Waterfront for a number of summers in my youth. I was introduced to the oyster shooter at Salmon Cooker. It was and remains my favorite way of oyster shooters.

Ingredients:

2 fresh shucked small oysters

1 tsp prepared extra hot horseradish

1 tsp ketchup

1 lemon wedge

splash of Tabasco

¼ cup Red Hook ESB

Directions:

1. Lightly rinse oysters with cold water to ensure all shell bits are gone. Place oysters into a small glass.
2. Add horseradish, ketchup, lemon juice, and Tabasco. Pour beer over contents and enjoy.
