Directions
Preheat the broiler.
Shuck the oysters and reserve the juice and half the shells.
Mix the juice with the wine, garlic, Tabasco, salt and pepper and then marinate the oysters in this for ten minutes.
Cut the bacon strips in half and wrap each oyster with half a bacon slice and secure with a toothpick.
Broil on a baking sheet or in their shells, turning once, until the bacon is crisp and the edges of the oysters have curled.
They can be served on buttered toast points, (triangle shaped pieces of toast), or in their shells.
