I'm Recreating the Prairie Oyster from Jeeves & Wooster. Get 30% OFF your first bag of coffee with Trade Coffee when you click here cen.yt/tradehowtodrink
Jeeves and Wooster is beloved series of both books and British Television. The show ran form the early 1990's and starred Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry, and brought to life the P.G. Wodehouse characters of Bertie Wooster and his valet Jeeves.
We make our very first introduction of these characters finding Wooster to be suffering from a severe hangover, dumbfounded in his flat. His new valet has been dispatched by the agency and immediately sets to the work of crafting an eye opener for our hapless aristocrat. Now, in the books it's quite clear that he makes him a prairie oyster, something of an old hangover staple. The show is a bit more cryptic about things however, featuring Stephen Fry compounding all manner of ingredients into an extremely unappetizing slurry. I produce both versions here for your please. Please do not make the slurry. It will be bad.
Praire Oyster

Prairie Slurry
One Egg Yolk

I can see how the spelling of Worcestershire can throw you until you've heard it pronounced once or twice, but it's not like it's actually hard to say. Worcester is pronounced "wooster" (just like Leicester is pronounced "lester"). Shire is "sheer", but you can skip that part if you want (Worcester being the city in Worcestershire where the sauce is made). So just say Wooster Sauce and get on with your life.

I always thought "a pinch of hot pepper" referred to hot pepper sauce, like a splash of Tabasco or the like. As for the drink in the show, I always thought they'd cheated a dark Bloody Mary into Laurie's hands... Fun episode, thanks! :D

You can use hot sauce or pepper powder/flakes. There's not really one way to make a prairie oyster.

@@keiskay Certainly. My comment was in reference to the "recipe" as stated in the book, not an admonishment on "the right way" to make the drink.

I'm fairly certain the one in the show, given the amount of beverage in the jar, is not a prairie oyster but a red eye. Also the color is closer to a red eye but with cognac instead of vodka and beer. I don't think you can drink that ammount of worcester sauce (and the usual name is worcester sauce, even if the real name is worcestershire sauce, that's the problem with the pronunciation you pointed out).

Odd, we always refered to antelope balls as Prairie Oysters. The lowland version of Rocky Mountain oysters

Fun story about prairie oysters: when I was in high school, I played Cliff in the school theater production of Cabaret. Obviously, being high schoolers, we didn't have very refined palates for alcohol or eye-openers, so a prairie oyster sounded like the grossest thing we'd ever heard of. The first time we went to dress rehearsal, I finally got the prop flask for the prairie oyster, which actually had some liquid in it. I foolishly assumed it was coke, because of the color. I was wrong. First time running the scene, I take a swig, and it turns out to be coffee. Cold, old coffee. I don't like coffee to begin with, but cold and stale is particularly odious. I don't know if they just put coffee in there and forgot about it for a few days, or if the coffee had been sitting in there literally since the last show where they used the prop, potentially months. In any case, it was disgusting in every way possible, and I'm standing there trying not to retch, while my next line is supposed to be, "It's delicious!" I struggled a little bit with that delivery. Luckily it was just the dress rehearsal. Fortunately, the prop was filled with coke for every run after that.

Love that you are covering the show I loved most growing up! Btw "Wooster" is pronounced how you would pronounce "Worcester" MA. Check it out, Stephen Fry at his best!

Ever since I saw this video, I regularly crave these. I have been doing half shot of tequila, egg yolk, salt, pepper, Worcestershire, tobasco in a shot glass, garnished w/ bacon (i keep cooked refrigerated in fridge for recipes) This morning though my throat was a little scratchy, because i was actually hung over and not drinking raw eggs just for fun, i wanted to skip the tobasco so i made in a rocks glass: Half shot maple syrup Half shot Captain Morgan Orange Vanilla Twist ( now stir vigorously) Separated Egg Yolk Salt Pepper The memory of bacon (none in fridge) It was a delicious breakfast shot, if you find the harshness of the tobasco unappealing but want to drink raw eggs, this is a great drink. You could probably even add more of the rum. I would've had a second or third to clarify, but my first was the last of my eggs.

I had my doubts, but a couple times in the past year when the night got away from me and I had a terrible hangover the next morning, a prairie oyster did truly seem to help dial back the horror enough to, typically, let me get back to sleep where the misery goes away haha.
