If using wood toothpicks or skewers, soak them in water for at least ten minutes and preferably 30 minutes. This helps mitigate burning in the oven.
Quarter your bacon slices - slice them in half widthwise and then lengthwise. (Smoked oysters are small, so you need small pieces of bacon to wrap them in.) 6-8 Slices Bacon
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F
While the oven preheats, wrap the oysters. Grab an oyster from the tin and wrap one of the bacon strip quarters around it. Secure it with a toothpick and place it on a foil-lined baking sheet. 1 3.75 Oz. Tin Smoked Oysters
Bake the angels at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes, until the bacon is crispy. Flip halfway through baking. Remove the angels from the oven and drizzle with a little bit of Worcestershire sauce. Drizzle with a little (optional) lemon juice as well, if desired.
Worcestershire Sauce, Lemon Wedges
Serve hot, with a dish of Worcestershire sauce for dipping, and a few lemon wedges as a garnish.
