Baked Oysters with Cracker Crumbs

1 pint fresh jarred oysters
2 cups medium coarse organic saltine cracker crumbs
1/2 cup melted butter
1 cup heavy cream
1/4  cup oyster liqueur (the liquid in the oyster jars)
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Preheat the oven to 350° F. 

Drain the oysters, reserving the oyster liqueur.

In a large bowl, combine the cracker crumbs and butter. Spread 1/3 of the cracker mixture into the bottom of a 9x13" casserole dish, and then top with 1/2 of oysters. Sprinkle with pepper. Repeat these steps once more.

Combine the cream, oyster liqueur, Worcestershire sauce, and salt. Pour the liquid mixture over top of the layers into the casserole dish. Top with the remaining crackers.

Bake for 55 minutes, uncovered, until golden brown.
