We have some oyster beds near our home in Washington. These oysters are
quite large. Is there a way to prepare them for family members who are a
bit squeamish about eating the large ones? Thanks.

Yes! Tell them they are terrible and then you won't have to share, LOLs.
I'm in WA as well, what do you consider quite large? I live on the Sound and
I've found them as big as 2 feet in the shell. Normally I go after the ones 12"
to 14" and leave the smaller ones. I just fry them in butter at a high heat for
the best oyster taste. You might tell your family members that the big ones
don't have the strong oyster taste as the small ones do. I'm no chef but I do
think people either like oysters or they don't. Thankfully, I'm the only one
that eats them in my household.
