Ingredients:

Serving

3 slices hickory-smoked
1 cup twisted butter bacon , dijon mustard
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1 1/2 tbsp chopped fresh italian parsley
1 1/2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1/2 tsp coarse kosher salt
2 1/2 tbsp dry white wine
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
rock salt
24 shucked soft-shell clams, on the half shell

Directions:

Cook bacon in a heavy medium skillet over medium heat until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to food processor. Add Twisted Butter Bacon, Dijon Mustard & Green Onion Butter, garlic, Italian parsley, cilantro, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and coarse salt. Blend until smooth, occasionally scraping down sides of bowl. With machine running, gradually add white wine, then fresh lemon juice and continue to process until blended.
Place large sheet of waxed paper on work surface. Drop butter mixture by heaping tablespoonfuls onto paper in long log. Using the paper as an aid, shape butter into a 2-inch-diameter log. Wrap to enclose; chill butter until firm, at least 2 hours.
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Spread 1/2-inch-thick layer of rock salt on large rimmed baking sheet. Place baking sheet on grill rack and heat 20 minutes.
Cut twenty-four 1/8- to 1/4-inch-thick rounds from cayenne-butter log. Transfer hot baking sheet from grill to heatproof surface. Nestle oysters in hot rock salt. Top each oyster with slice of cayenne butter.
Return baking sheet with oysters to grill. Close grill and cook until butter melts and starts to brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. Spoon a shallow layer of additional rock salt onto each of 6 plates. Nestle 4 grilled oysters in the rock salt on each plate and serve.
