The Dixie Cook-Book

Broiled Oysters with Pork

String a hair-pin shaped wire, first with an oyster, then with a thin slice of pork, and so on until the wire is filled; fasten ends of wire into a long wooden handle, and broil before the fire. Serve, with the pork, if you like, seasoning slightly with pepper.
