Oyster Stew with Biscuits

Your Oyster Recipe of the Day: Oyster Stew with Biscuits. Chef George Reis of 5 Point Public House Oyster Bar and Ocean restaurant prepared this recipe on Fox 6 “Good Day Alabama” with Martie Duncan last October. It combines fluffy biscuits with steamy, rich oyster stew.  Blending two, simple comfort foods makes a doubly comforting bowl.
