I worked at a local burger snatcher called "Broiler" which used the
same burger cooker as Burger King .... long before Burger Whop came to
town. We were in competition with Michey D's and a place called Sandy's
which after several rounds of mergers and aquisitions morphed into
Hardee's. In '63 I was paid min-wage (U$1.15/hour) as a grunt. Then I
got into management on salary (U$60/week) and was making less per hour
than when punching the clock. But it was an education.

      Title: Broiled Oysters w/Parmigiano & Anduja
 Categories: Five, Seafood, Cheese
      Yield: 12 servings
 
      1    Dozen medium-large oysters
      3 tb (2 oz.) rCOnduja *
      2 tb (1 oz.) unsalted butter; in
     12 sm Pieces
  1 1/2 oz Parmigiano-Reggiano; very
           - thin sliced (24 slices)
           Fresh ground black pepper
 
  * a spicy paste prepared from cured pork and peppers,
  traditionally made in the Italian region of Calabria.
  
  Preheat the broiler to its highest setting. Meanwhile,
  shuck the oysters and, using an oyster knife, detach the
  meat from the bottom of the shell, reserving the fluid.
  
  On a baking sheet, crinkle up one or more large pieces
  of foil to create a bed to help stabilize the oysters.
  Place the oysters on top, nestling them into the foil so
  their juices donrCOt spill. Atop each oyster, place 1
  teaspoon of the rCOnduja and a piece of butter. Divide the
  cheese among the oysters and top with a little black
  pepper.
  
  Broil until the cheese is melted and slightly golden on
  top and the juices are bubbling, 6-10 minutes.
  
  Transfer the oysters to a platter and serve immediately
  with forks, if desired.
