Crab Topped Oysters With A Bearnaise Sauce

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Please Note: My prep time includes for opening the oysters, prep time will be less is buying oysters already on the half shell.
    I went to my fish market last weekend and bought some king crab legs, to make crab stuffed ostrich, the legs were huge and when I removed all the meat I realized there was far too much meat for just the ostrich I had. I had also bought some oysters as my niece loves them and she was coming over, I had planned on making oysters kilpatrick and mornay to start, when I realized I had so much crab I changed my mind and made crab topped oyster instead.
