Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Spread out the bread on 2 baking sheets; bake until dried out, about 1 hour, rotating the baking sheets as needed.
- Increase the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove 1/4 cup of the drippings, leaving about 1/2 cup in the pot. Add the onion, celery, carrots and garlic and cook, stirring, until softened, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and add 1 1/2 cups stock. Add the marjoram and set aside.
- Whisk the remaining 1 1/2 cups stock and the eggs in a large bowl. Add the scallions, parsley, Old Bay, oysters with their liquor and the vegetable-bacon mixture. Add the bread and mix until most of the liquid is absorbed. Season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the mixture to a 3-quart baking dish. Sprinkle with the parmesan and bake until browned on top, 30 to 40 minutes. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.
BAKED OYSTERS WITH IRISH CHEDDAR AND BACON
Raw oysters can be a little intimidating to the uninitiated, but these baked oysters should please both the oyster amateur as well as the aficionados. Since these oysters are served cooked, you can skip the "shucking" and give the oysters a quick steam. Whether you plan on serving 6 or 60, you can have them open in minutes. These baked oysters with Irish cheddar and bacon are the perfect snack for St. Patricks Day, best served with and ice cold Irish stout. Courtesy of Derek Bocking

Steps:
- Cut the bacon into small, thin slices and then fry until just starting to crisp up. Strain the fat and set aside.
- Rinse the oysters, using a brush to remove any dirt or grit. Set the oysters in a strainer or steamer, cover, and steam over boiling water until they just start to open, about 3 - 5 minutes. Use a knife to carefully remove the top shell. Discard the top shell and keep the oysters in the bottom shell.
- Line a baking tray with 1 ½ cups coarse salt to steady the oysters. Press the oysters down into the salt and then garnish each oyster with a small amount of bacon. Slice the cheese into 12 even slices and place 1 slice over each oyster. Set the oysters under the broiler on the second highest rack. Bake until the cheese is melted and just starting to brown, about 5 minutes.
- To serve, place the oysters on a platter lined with 1 ½ cups coarse salt.
OYSTER ROAST WITH BACON AND PARMESAN
This is a really nice dish that combines acid, salt, and aromatics. It's really decadent and is great for special occasions like Valentine's Day, an anniversary, or a date night. I know you're going to love it.

Steps:
- Make the compound butter: Remove the inner stem of the chard leaves and roughly chop. In a skillet, heat two tablespoons of butter and saute the Swiss chard until wilted. Season with a pinch of salt. Set aside to cool. Finely chop the bacon and place in a bowl along with the butter. Add the lemon juice to the bacon/butter mixture. Finely chop the garlic and mix into the bacon/butter along with the Parmesan, thyme, and chives. Season with salt and pepper. Finely chop the chard and fold into the butter mixture. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Set aside. (To store, form into a log, wrap in plastic and place in the refrigerator. Soften first before using on oysters).
- Shuck the oysters: Using an oyster knife, locate the "keyhole" in the top of the oyster. Stick the tip of the knife into the keyhole and wiggle it until until the top releases. Wedge your finger along the side of the oyster (it won't hurt!), just to open it enough to run the knife along the edge. (This will keep the oyster from puncturing as it's opened.) Shuck the oysters, leaving the connector muscle attached, so they stay in place for baking.
- Bake the oysters: Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Fill a deep cast iron skillet halfway with sea salt or rock salt and place in the oven to come up to temperature. Pull the heated rock salt dish from the oven. Carefully place the oysters on the salt and dollop with a generous amount of the compound butter. Place in the oven for about 6-8 minutes, until the butter melts and the oysters are slightly curled. Finish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and serve right out of the hot casserole.
ROASTED OYSTERS WITH WARM BACON VINAIGRETTE
To me, the only other way to eat oysters, besides simply shucking them fresh and cold, is to grill them. I love the gentle warmth and slight smoke that the grill imparts on a fresh oyster. Adding slightly wilted watercress gives the oyster some structure, notes of green pepper and an added vessel for the vinaigrette. The use of bacon in the vinaigrette drills in the smoky element, while adding both richness and much needed acidity.

Steps:
- Preheat a wood-fired or regular oven to 400 degrees F. Fill a 14-inch cast-iron pan with the rock salt.
- Shuck the oysters, keeping them in their bottom shells, then lay them on the rock salt, using care to save as much of the oyster liquor as possible. Place the entire pan in the oven and cook until the oysters are just set, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the bacon to a medium cast-iron pan, then set over medium-high heat. Cook the bacon until the fat has rendered out and the bacon begins to crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the onions to the pan and turn the heat down to medium-low. Sweat the onions until they have begun to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the mustard, then slowly add the vinegar, stirring. (You will want to stir and swirl the pan as you add the liquid, to help emulsify the mustard and vinegar into the bacon fat.) Add the watercress and stir the mixture to combine and wilt the cress.
- Remove the oysters from the oven. Evenly divide and top each oyster with the bacon vinaigrette.
BAKED OYSTERS WITH BACON
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 500°F.
- Make stuffing:
- Bring a 6- to 8-quart pot three-fourths full of water to a boil with kosher salt, then stir in spinach and cook 30 seconds. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a large bowl filled with ice and cold water to stop cooking. Drain spinach and squeeze dry, then finely chop.
- Wash leeks well in a bowl of cold water, then lift out and drain well.
- Heat oil in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then sauté bacon, stirring, until golden and just cooked through (but not crisp), about 3 minutes. Transfer with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Add leeks, shallot, and garlic to fat in skillet and cook over low heat, covered, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 8 minutes.
- Toss together leek mixture, spinach, bacon, bread crumbs, herbs, lemon zest and juice, sea salt, white pepper, nutmeg, and butter in a large bowl with a fork.
- Bake oysters:
- Spread 2 to 3 cups rock salt in each of 2 large shallow baking pans and nestle oysters (in shells) in it. Spoon a heaping tablespoon bread-crumb stuffing loosely on top of each oyster. Bake in batches in upper third of oven until golden, about 6 minutes.
- Serve warm oysters in shells on plates lined with rock salt.

SMOKED OYSTERS AND BACON
This is how I hot smoked some oysters and bacon in a small fish smoker. They were shucked on the half-shell when I bought them so I smoked in the lower part of the shell. The small fish smokers get quite hot and put out smoke quickly, so you'll need to adjust the times quite a bit if using a different kind of smoker.
