I didn't know but looked it up....sounds a little like Oysters Mosca-?

Emeril's Oyster Pan Roast

Ingredients

• 8 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1 bunch scallions, chopped
• 1 medium rib celery, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons minced garlic
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly minced thyme leaves
• 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly minced oregano leaves
• 1 teaspoon freshly minced rosemary leaves
• 4 dozen oysters, shucked and well-drained
• 6 tablespoons heavy cream
• 6 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley leaves
• Salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• Essence, to taste, recipe follows
• 4 strips crisp-cooked bacon, very finely chopped
• 1/2 cup unseasoned fine dry bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan or Romano
• Crusty French bread slices, for serving

Directions

Preheat the broiler.
In a large skillet or low-sided saucepan, melt the butter with the olive oil over low heat. Add the scallions, celery, garlic, bay leaves, thyme, oregano, and rosemary. Continue to cook over low heat until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
Add the drained oysters and stir to combine. When the oysters just begin to firm up (about 3 to 4 minutes), stir in the heavy cream and parsley and remove from the heat. Taste and season with salt, pepper, and Essence. Transfer to a shallow casserole large enough to hold the oysters in 1 layer and sprinkle the bacon over the oysters. In a small bowl combine the bread crumbs and Parmesan and sprinkle over the top of the oysters. Broil 6 inches from the heat source until the oysters are cooked through and the bread crumbs are lightly browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Serve with crusty French bread.

I think it is what made Hooters famous?
...no, but it actually is on their menu...

I think it is more of an East Coast tradition.

Here is a link to a pretty good one, and if you look on the left there are more oyster recipes.

I like that recipe better than the oyster mosca recipe, I am going to make it that way next time.

Thanks Chef Guy!

Last year a bunch of us went to Muriel's for the Reveillon dinner, and I ordered the oyster pan roast. It was ok.... but in my opinion shouldn't have been the main entree'. It was waaaay too rich. It was good, but I wouldn't order it again.

Cochon has a wood fired oyster roast that I can't pass up. The sauce seems to be simply butter, garlic, lemon and LA hot sauce.
